Hoping I Would Set Free Chains – 英语/中文 双语歌词

歌词与翻译

[中文]

- 当时我在狱中怀孕，

我以为我会生下一个孩子，

而这个孩子永远不会和我在一起。

但我在图帕克出生前一个月零三天被判无罪释放。

图帕克就出生了。

我真的很高兴，因为我有了个儿子。

当我年轻的时候，我和妈妈之间有过争执。

17岁的时候，我被赶到了街上。

虽然当时，我从没想过还会再见到她的脸。

没有哪个女人能取代我妈妈的位置。

被学校停学，害怕回家，我真是个傻瓜。

和那些坏孩子一起，打破所有的规则。

我和我的小妹妹一起流泪。

这些年来，我们比其他孩子更穷。

即使我们有不同的父亲，也经历着同样的苦难。

当事情出错时，我们就会责怪妈妈。

我回忆起我造成的压力，那真是地狱。

在牢房里拥抱着我的妈妈。

谁会想到在小学的时候，

嘿，有一天我会看到监狱。

逃避警察，没错。

妈妈抓住我，狠狠地打我的屁股。

即使你是个瘾君子，妈妈。

你永远是我的黑人女王，妈妈。

我终于明白了。

对于一个女人来说，要抚养一个男人长大并不容易。

你总是那么尽职尽责。

一个靠福利金生活的贫穷单身母亲，告诉我你是怎么做到的。

我永远无法报答你。

但我的计划是让你知道我理解你。

你是值得感激的。

女士，你难道不知道我们爱你吗？

亲爱的妈妈。

亲爱的女士，没有人能超越你。

你是值得感激的。

亲爱的女士，你难道不知道我们爱你吗？

现在没有人告诉我们这是公平的。

没有来自我爸爸的爱，因为那个懦夫不在那里。

他去世了，我没有哭，因为我的愤怒。

不让我为一个陌生人感到悲伤。

他们说我是错的，我是冷酷无情的，但一直以来。

我一直在寻找一个已经离开的父亲。

我和暴徒们混在一起。

即使他们贩毒。

他们向一个年轻的兄弟展示了爱。

我搬出去，真正开始混社会。

我需要自己的钱，所以我开始贩毒。

我不觉得内疚，即使我卖毒品。

把钱放进你的邮箱里感觉很好。

我喜欢在到期时支付房租。

我希望你收到了我寄给你的钻石项链。

因为当我失落的时候，你总是在我身边。

你从未离开我，因为你关心我。

我能看到你下班后很晚才回家。

你在厨房里试图给我们做一顿热饭。

你只是用给你的残羹剩饭来做饭。

妈妈在每个感恩节都创造了奇迹。

但现在路变得艰难，你孤身一人。

你独自一人试图抚养两个坏孩子。

我永远无法报答你。

但我的计划是让你知道我理解你。

你是值得感激的。

女士，你难道不知道我们爱你吗？

亲爱的妈妈。

亲爱的女士，没有人能超越你。

你是值得感激的。

亲爱的女士，你难道不知道我们爱你吗？

倒出一些酒，我陷入回忆。

因为在苦难中，我总是可以依靠我的妈妈。

当我觉得我毫无希望时。

你说的话能让我重新振作起来。

当我小时候生病时。

为了让我开心，你做了无数的事情。

我所有的童年记忆。

都充满了你为我做的美好的事情。

即使我的行为很疯狂。

我必须感谢上帝创造了我。

没有任何语言可以表达我的感受。

你从未隐瞒任何秘密，总是保持真诚。

我感谢你，感谢你抚养我的方式。

以及你给我的所有额外的爱。

我希望我能带走所有的痛苦。

如果你能熬过黑夜。

就会有更光明的一天。

如果你坚持下去，一切都会好起来的。

每天都是一场斗争，必须继续前进。

我永远无法报答你。

但我的计划是让你知道我理解你。

你是值得感激的。

女士，你难道不知道我们爱你吗？

亲爱的妈妈。

亲爱的女士，没有人能超越你。

你是值得感激的。

亲爱的女士，你难道不知道我们爱你吗？

亲爱的妈妈。

亲爱的女士。

亲爱的妈妈。

女士。

女士。

• Ain't a woman alive that could take my mama's place

  ➔ 双重否定（'Ain't' + 'alive'）+关系从句('that could take')

  ➔ 'Ain't' 是 “is not” 或 “are not” 的非标准缩写，在这里用于强调。“that could take”短语引入一个关系从句，描述是哪位女性。

  ➔ 主谓倒装（'it ain't easy'）+动名词('trying')
