歌词与翻译

[英语]

[中文]

Remember once I told you about

还记得吗，我曾告诉过你

How before I heard it from your mouth

在你亲口说出之前

My name would always hit my ears as such an awful sound?

我的名字总是刺耳难听？

And the soul, if that's what you'd call it

而灵魂，如果那就是你能叫它的

Uneasy ally of the body

不安的身体盟友

It felt nameless as a river undiscovered underground

它感觉像条无名河流，在地下未被发现

And the first time that you kissed me

而当你第一次亲吻我

I drank dry the River Lethe

我喝干了忘川

The Liffey would have been softer on my stomach all the same

相比之下，利菲河对我的胃还会更温柔些

But you spoke some quick new music

但你说出了崭新的乐章

That went so far to soothe this soul

深深地抚慰了这灵魂

As it was and ever shall be, unearth without a name

它过去如何，将来亦如何，一个无名的被发掘之物

Some part of me must have died

一定有一部分我已死去

The first time that you called me "baby"

当你第一次叫我“宝贝”

And some part of me came alive

而一部分的我又活了过来

The first time that you called me "baby"

当你第一次叫我“宝贝”

These days, I think I owe my life

这些天，我想我欠了生命

To flowers that were left here by my mother

那些我母亲留下的花朵

Ain't that like them, gifting life to you again

难道不像她们吗，再次赐予你生命

This life lived mostly underground

这生命大多在地下度过

Unknowing either sight nor sound

不知视听

'Til reaching up for sunlight just to be ripped out by the stem

直到伸向阳光，却被连根拔起

Sensing only now it's dying

现在才感觉到它正在死去

Drying out, then drowning blindly

干涸，然后盲目地溺亡

Blooming forth its every colour

盛放出它所有的色彩

In the moments it has left

在它剩余的时光里

To share the space with simple living things

与简单的生物分享空间

Infinitely suffering, but fighting off like all creation

无限地受苦，但像所有造物一样奋力抵抗

The absence of itself, anyway

反正就是抵抗它自身的消逝

Some part of me must have died

一定有一部分我已死去

Each time that you called me "baby"

每次你叫我“宝贝”

And some part of me stayed alive

而一部分的我依然存活

Each time that you called, each time that you called

每次你呼唤，每次你呼唤

Come here

过来

Ooh-la-la, ooh-la-la

哦啦啦，哦啦啦

Whatever keeps you around, it keeps you around

无论什么让你留下，它就是让你留下

Ooh-la-la, come here, ooh-la-la

哦啦啦，过来，哦啦啦

Whatever keeps you around, it keeps you around

无论什么让你留下，它就是让你留下

The last time it was heard out loud

最后一次被大声听到

The perfect genius of our hands and mouths were shocked

我们手和嘴的完美天才被震惊

To resignation as the arguing declined

到无力反抗，随着争吵消退

When I was young, I used to guess

当我年轻的时候，我总是猜测

Are there limits to any emptiness?

空虚有极限吗？

When was the last time?

上次是什么时候？

Come here to me, when was the last time?

到我这来，上次是什么时候？

Some part of me must have died

一定有一部分我已死去

The final time you called me "baby"

最后一次你叫我“宝贝”

But some part of me came alive

但一部分的我又活了过来

The final time you called me "baby"

最后一次你叫我“宝贝”
