Swing Lo Magellan

一
Last night all my attention
昨日的黃昏我瞇著眼看
Squinting westward at the sunset
落日在西邊沉入地平線
With a map and a compass
手中只有一張地圖，一塊羅盤
When a man reached up, said something
那時他來了，嘴裡正說著什麼
.
二
There, against the sky, a ball of light
天幕下，光影交錯像一場盛大的舞會
Too invisible to give itself to the naked eye
絢麗到難以直視
.
三
On the shore, people yelling
海岸上，是人群的狂歡
In their eyes a great reflection
他們的眼裡反射著躍動的光芒
In the griddle where theyre positioned
人們聚集在在這烤盤一樣的海岸上
Unconcerned with intuition
醉情於歡樂和遺忘
.
四
There could never be no sympathy
也許終究是不會同情
From that wilderness
在那片荒野上
So let it be arrested
就讓這歡樂少了些放蕩
.
五
Swing low, oh Magellan
請降下桅杆啊，麥哲倫先生
9 by 6 or 8 by 7
你的方陣已經殘敗不堪
Post a sentinel at the border
往邊境派去勇士
Of what you attempt, what you ignore
看不見你的企圖，看不透你所忽視
I saw my friend in a pool of light
在一池耀眼的光亮中
All drowned in doubt and shame
全部浸在了懷疑和羞愧裡
And I knew that I had lost my sight
我清楚，這時我已失去了視力
