Flipside

In the dim corners cast by Moon's light,
在月光照耀下的灰暗角落
you see a gathering of patrons stand in a huddle
你看见一群老主顾挤成一团
Their desires are set on the wares of a lone pony amongst them,
他们的欲望集中在一只孤单小马的货物身上
holding an auction for the rarest of magical artefacts
为了那最稀有的魔法制品争相叫价
—no questions asked
没有人提问
You watch through a façade of indifference:
你旁观这表面上的冷漠
to you, this is life under Luna's silvery watch
对你来说，这就是露娜银光下的生活
-
Dangerous, it may seem,
看起来，可能有点危险
but danger is all you've known
但这危险你足够了解
And familiar faces fill your vision
你的视线里都是熟悉的脸
as you step up to claim what is rightfully yours
当你站出来宣布自己的正当利益
A wordless nod, and all are silent
只有默许，没有人反驳
For they know that what you want you get
他们知道你想要什么
And as the gavel falls
当木槌敲下
You retreat
你撤退了
Perhaps this will be all you need;
也许这就是你需要的
you can flip this, certainly,
当然，你可以拿走
but... for how much?
可…要多少钱？
Enough to see your foals smile tomorrow?
足够让你明天继续看到小驹们的笑脸吗？
Enough for them to eat?
够让它们吃吗？
You don't have much time to revel in your victory as suddenly, one by one,
你可没有时间来庆祝胜利了，一个接一个
masked ponies reveal themselves from the impenetrable shadows of the crammed alleyway
戴面罩的小马从阴暗漆黑的小巷里现身
You are surrounded
你被包围了
—but Celestia be damned if they're stopping you this night,
但他们今晚要是敢拦你，塞拉斯蒂亚会震怒
or any night after
还包括此后任何一个晚上
