Raglan Road
The Chieftains
Raglan Road 歌詞
On Raglan Road on an Autumn Day,
秋日的拉格倫路
I saw her first and knew
第一次與她相遇
That her dark hair would weave a snare
她秀髮烏黑順柔美麗
That I may one day rue.
我一見傾心為之入迷
I saw the danger,yet I walked
明知危險,卻沒停下腳步
Along the enchanted way
在這條醉人的道路上前行
And I said let grief be a falling leaf
我說悲傷便是這
At the dawning of the day.
黎明的落葉
On Grafton Street in November,
十一月的格拉夫頓街
We tripped lightly along the ledge
我們在山澗邊輕鬆漫步
Of a deep ravine where can be seen
那個被公認能看見
The worst of passions pledged.
最瘋狂的情感的地方
The Queen of Hearts still baking tarts
紅心皇后還在烘焙蛋撻
And I not making hay,
我還沒有行動半分
Well I loved too much;by such and such
我愛得熾熱,如此這般
Is happiness thrown away.
像是快樂被拋擲一旁
I gave her the gifts of the mind.
給她我用心準備的禮物
I gave her the secret sign
訴說我內心那秘密之處
That's known to all the artists who have
世人皆知
Known true Gods of Sound and Time.
藝術家知曉真實的聲時之神
With word and tint I did not stint.
所以我不吝話語色彩
I gave her reams of poems to say
詩篇情話,畫卷生花
With her own dark hair and her own name there
她烏黑的秀發,她動人的芳名
Like the clouds over fields of May.
正如五月田野浮雲
On a quiet street where old ghosts meet,
在一條鬼神相會的寧靜街道
I see her walking now away from me,
我看見她正離我越來越遠
So hurriedly.My reason must allow,
我匆忙,理智無法阻擋
For I have wooed,not as I should
我必須去追求她
A creature made of clay.
或是製作她的陶像
When the angel woos the clay,he'll lose
在黎明祈求天使的恩賜
His wings at the dawn of the day.
我的皮格馬利翁少女
