《What It Is》歌词

[00:00:01] Mark Knopfler

[00:00:32] //

[00:00:32] Drinking dens are spilling out

[00:00:33] 酒香从齿缝中散出

[00:00:33] There's staggering in the square

[00:00:36] 人们在广场中蹒跚而行

[00:00:36] There's lads and lasses falling about

[00:00:37] 年轻的少男少女们大笑着

[00:00:37] And a crackling in the air

[00:00:40] 空气中弥漫中烤肉的香气

[00:00:40] Down around the dungeon doors

[00:00:41] 在主塔的大门周围

[00:00:41] The shelters in the queues

[00:00:44] 是成列的风雨棚

[00:00:44] Everybody's looking for

[00:00:45] 每个人都在寻觅着

[00:00:45] Somebody's arms to fall into

[00:00:47] 投入某个人的怀抱中

[00:00:47] And it's what it is

[00:00:51] 而且事已至此

[00:00:51] It's what it is now

[00:00:55] 现在事情已至此

[00:00:55] There's frost on the graves and the monuments

[00:00:57] 坟墓和纪念碑上结了厚厚的霜雪

[00:00:57] But the taverns are warm in town

[00:01:00] 但镇上的旅馆里却温暖如春

[00:01:00] People curse the government

[00:01:01] 人们一边骂着政府

[00:01:01] And shovel hot food down

[00:01:03] 一边尽情享用着热食

[00:01:03] The lights are out in city hall

[00:01:05] 市政厅的灯光已熄

[00:01:05] The castle and the keep

[00:01:07] 城堡和要塞

[00:01:07] The moon shines down upon it all

[00:01:09] 月光洒在它们之上

[00:01:09] The legless and asleep

[00:01:12] 跛脚的人儿也进入梦乡

[00:01:12] And it′s cold on a tollgate

[00:01:13] 关卡依旧寒冷

[00:01:13] With the wagons creeping through

[00:01:15] 货车缓慢地爬行穿梭

[00:01:15] Cold on a tollgate

[00:01:17] 寒冷的关卡

[00:01:17] God knows what I could do with you

[00:01:19] 上帝知道我可以和你做什么

[00:01:19] And It′s what it is

[00:01:22] 而且事已至此

[00:01:22] It′s what it is now

[00:01:27] 现在事情已至此

[00:01:27] The garrison sleeps and the citadel

[00:01:28] 守卫们熟睡着

[00:01:28] With the ghosts and the ancient stones

[00:01:31] 要塞中是幽灵和远古的石头

[00:01:31] High up on the parapet

[00:01:32] 在高高的栏杆上

[00:01:32] A Scottish piper stands alone

[00:01:35] 一个苏格兰风笛手孤单地伫立着

[00:01:35] And high on the wind

[00:01:36] 在风之上

[00:01:36] The highland drums begin to roll

[00:01:39] 高地的鼓声开始敲响

[00:01:39] And something from the past just comes

[00:01:40] 那感觉像是来自远古

[00:01:40] And stares into my soul

[00:01:42] 望进我的灵魂深处

[00:01:42] And it′s cold on a tollgate

[00:01:44] 关卡依旧寒冷

[00:01:44] Where the Caledonian blues

[00:01:47] 那是古苏格兰人忧伤的地方

[00:01:47] Cold on a tollgate

[00:01:48] 寒冷的关卡

[00:01:48] God knows what I could do with you

[00:01:50] 上帝知道我可以和你做什么

[00:02:02] It′s what it is now

[00:02:38] 现在事情已至此

[00:02:38] There′s a chink of light

[00:02:39] 裂缝中闪着亮光

[00:02:39] There′s a lantern in the tower

[00:02:39] 灯芯在燃烧

[00:02:39] There′s a burning wick

[00:02:42] 塔楼上点着灯笼

[00:02:42] Wee Willie Winkie with a candlestick

[00:02:43] 细小的蜡烛台闪着光

[00:02:43] Still writing songs in the wee wee hours

[00:02:45] 在这短暂的空闲里 我依然在写着歌

[00:02:45] On Charlotte Street I take

[00:02:47] 漫步在夏洛特大街上

[00:02:47] A walking stick from my hotel

[00:02:50] 我从旅馆里带出了一根手杖

[00:02:50] The ghost of Dirty Dick

[00:02:51] Is still in search of Little Nell

[00:02:53] 还在寻找着小内尔

[00:02:53] And it′s what it is
