Wait for Me

[HERMES, spoken]
怎么下到哈迪斯的冥府
How to get to Hadestown:
你得忍受漫长的旅途
You have to take the long way down
在夜色的掩护下穿过铁路
Through the underground, under cover of night
俯下身，别让人看见
Layin' low, stayin' out of sight
小子，你没有罗盘也没有地图
Ain't no compass, brother, ain't no map
那只有电话线和铁路
Just a telephone wire and a railroad track
往前走，别回头
Keep on walkin' and don't look back
直下地底深处，那就是冥府
'Til you get to the bottomland
等着我吧，我正向你奔来

等着我，我正来到你身边
[ORPHEUS]
等着我吧，我来陪伴你
Wait for me, I'm comin'
我来了，来到你身边
Wait, I'm comin' with you
挡在你面前的斯提克斯又高又宽
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
那是铁丝网和煤灰砖
I'm coming too
还有混凝土高墙

冥府三头犬在门前逡巡吠叫
[HERMES, spoken]
如果你有骨头和面包来贿赂
The River Styx is high and wide
那些狗也许会趴下来装死
Cinder bricks and razor wire
但如果你只有你的双腿
Walls of iron and concrete
最好庆幸你能把它们糊弄过去
Hound dogs howling 'round the gate
等着我吧，我正向你奔来
Those dogs'll lay down and play dead
等着我，我正来到你身边
If you got the bones, if you got the bread
等着我吧，我来陪伴你
But if all you got is your own two legs
我来了，来到你你身边
Just be glad you got 'em
你是谁？

你以为你去的是哪？
[ORPHEUS and FATES]
你是谁？
Wait for me, I'm comin'
你为何孤身一人？
Wait, I'm comin' with you
你以为
Wait for me, I'm comin' too
你是谁
I'm coming too
你凭什么

觉得自己可以走过这条从未有人踏足的路
[FATES]
Who are you?

（歌队开始轮唱回应俄耳甫斯）
[FATE]
Where do you think you're going?

（赫尔墨斯打断他们）
[FATES]
你在黑暗中潜逃
Who are you?
别告诉任何人你的名字（古希腊文化里真名具有力量所以在一些场合会避讳）

也别直视任何人的眼睛
[FATE]
冥府会试图把你吸干
Why are you all alone?
它会榨取你的神志和呼吸

从你的胸腔中扯出你的心脏
[FATES]
用棉花塞住你的嘴
Who do you-
再用你最好的衣服把你五花大绑

等着我吧，我正向你奔来
[FATE]
等着我，我正来陪伴你
-Think you are?
等着我，我正向你奔来，我来陪伴你

我来了
[FATES]
等着我
Who are you-
等着我，我正向你奔来

等着我
[FATE]
我听到高墙的回声
-To think that you can walk a road that no one ever walked before?
等着我

回响着我的脚步
[ORPHEUS]
犹如鼓声阵阵
La la la la la la
等着我
La la la la la la la
我也并非孤身一人

等着我
(the COMPANY begins to echo and do rounds)
我听到那顽石撼动

等着我
[ORPHEUS]
回荡着我的歌声
La la la la la la la
我来了！
La la la la la
（前一段歌词的梗1，俄耳甫斯是世界上最伟大的诗人和乐手，他的音乐能让顽石撼动，野兽俯首）

（梗2，这里的rocks and stones也可以指的是哈迪斯的工人们，此时他们已经被俄耳甫斯的歌声震撼感化，内心动摇，才有了后来if it true what they say以及之后的riot)
(HERMES cuts them off)

[HERMES]
You're on the lam, you’re on the run
Don't give your name, you don't have one
And don't look no one in the eye
That town'll try to suck you dry
They'll suck your brain, they'll suck your breath
They'll pluck the heart right out your chest
They'll truss you up in your Sunday best
And stuff your mouth with cotton

[ORPHEUS and COMPANY]
Wait for me I'm coming! I'm coming I'm coming
Wait, I'm coming with you I'm coming
Wait Wait I'm coming for me, I'm coming too
I'm coming!

[COMPANY]
Wait!

[ORPHEUS]
I'm coming wait for me

[COMPANY]
Wait!

[ORPHEUS and HERMES]
I hear the walls repeating

[COMPANY]
Wait!

[ORPHEUS and HERMES]
The falling of my feet and

[ORPHEUS and COMPANY]
It sounds like drumming

[COMPANY]
Wait!

[ORPHEUS and HERMES and Unknown Voice]
And I am not alone

[COMPANY]
Wait!

[ORPHEUS and HERMES, and Unknown Voice]
I hear the rocks and stones

[COMPANY]
Wait!

[ORPHEUS]
Echoing my song
I'm coming!

[HERMES]
Coming...

[COMPANY]
Coming...
