《Sapokanikan》歌词

[00:00:00] Sapokanikan - Joanna Newsom

[00:00:00] //

[00:00:00] The cause is Ozymandian

[00:00:06] 一切皆始于奥兹曼迪亚斯式的悲剧

[00:00:06] The map of Sapokanikan

[00:00:11] 看那萨波卡尼肯的版图

[00:00:11] Is sanded and bevelled

[00:00:14] 被某只未知而强大的手

[00:00:14] The land lone and levelled

[00:00:16] 掩埋 侵蚀

[00:00:16] By some unrecorded and powerful hand

[00:00:23] 既落寞 又沉浮

[00:00:23] Which plays along the monument

[00:00:28] 是它立起了丰碑

[00:00:28] And drums upon a plastic bag

[00:00:34] 也是它击鼓玩乐

[00:00:34] The brave-men-and-women-so-dear-to-God-

[00:00:39] 让忠于信仰 闻名于世的勇者们

[00:00:39] And-famous-to-all-of-the-ages rag

[00:00:45] 都化作尘土消散

[00:00:45] Sang: Do you love me

[00:00:51] 所以我歌唱 你爱我吗

[00:00:51] Will you remember

[00:00:56] 你会永远将我铭刻在心吗？

[00:00:56] The snow falls above me

[00:01:01] 雪花飘落在我身上

[00:01:01] The renderer renders:

[00:01:06] 画外音响起

[00:01:06] The event is in the hand of God

[00:01:12] 万物的命运都服从神的裁决

[00:01:12] Beneath a patch of grass her

[00:01:17] 在一块绿草地之下

[00:01:17] Bones the old Dutch master hid

[00:01:22] 荷兰大师藏着农妇的画像

[00:01:22] While elsewhere Tobias

[00:01:24] 另一处

[00:01:24] And the angel disguise

[00:01:27] 托比亚斯和天使的伪装之下

[00:01:27] What the scholars surmise was a mother and kid

[00:01:34] 学者们猜测实为一对母子

[00:01:34] Interred with other daughters

[00:01:39] 而与他人的子女

[00:01:39] In dirt in other potters' fields

[00:01:44] 一同被葬在乱坟的人们

[00:01:44] Above them parades

[00:01:46] 如今踏过他们的队列

[00:01:46] Mark the passing of days

[00:01:49] 昭示了时光的飞逝

[00:01:49] Through parks where you

[00:01:50] 人们穿过

[00:01:50] pale colonnades arch in marble and steel

[00:01:56] 立着苍白大理石与钢铁建成的拱廊的公园

[00:01:56] Where all of the twenty-thousand attending your footfall

[00:02:01] 过去陨落的两万条生命躺在你脚底

[00:02:01] And the causes they died for are lost in the idling bird calls

[00:02:07] 而死因却在空婉转的鸟啼中被遗忘

[00:02:07] And the records they left are cryptic at best

[00:02:09] 他们留下的记载尚待解读

[00:02:09] Lost in obsolescence

[00:02:12] 却难逃无人知晓的结局

[00:02:12] The text will not yield nor x-ray reveal

[00:02:15] 真相不会屈从 即使X射线

[00:02:15] With any fluorescence

[00:02:17] 也透视不了它分毫

[00:02:17] Where the hand of the master begins and ends

[00:02:23] 而贯穿始末的 仍旧是造物主的手

[00:02:23] I fell I tried to do well but I won't be

[00:02:28] 我失败了 我想成功却自知不能

[00:02:28] Will you tell the one that I love to remember and hold me

[00:02:33] 你能告诉我爱的人 让他记住我 抱紧我吗

[00:02:33] I call and call for the doctor

[00:02:39] 我一次次拜访医生

[00:02:39] But the snow swallows me whole with ol' Florry Walker

[00:02:44] 但大雪却带着爱人的名字将我吞没

[00:02:44] And the event lives only in print

[00:02:49] 而历史终只能活在记载之中

[00:02:49] He said:

[00:02:51] 他说

[00:02:51] "It's alright"

[00:02:53] 好吧

[00:02:53] And "It's all over now"

[00:02:55] 都结束了

[00:02:55] And boarded the plane

[00:02:58] 然后登上了飞机

[00:02:58] His belt unfastened

[00:03:00] 却没有系紧安全带

[00:03:00] The boy was known to show unusual daring

[00:03:04] 众人熟知这个男孩非凡的勇气

[00:03:04] And called a "boy"

[00:03:06] 尽管被称作 男孩

[00:03:06] This alderman confounding Tammany Hall

[00:03:11] 这位市长挫败了塔慕尼协会

[00:03:11] In whose employ King Tamanend himself preceeded John's fall

[00:03:17] 而塔慕尼王的时代又先于坠机的约翰市长太久

[00:03:17] So we all raise a standard

[00:03:20] 正因如此我们树起了一份标杆

[00:03:20] To which the wise and honest soul may repair

[00:03:24] 让智慧与诚实的灵魂能面此完善自身

[00:03:24] To which a hunter

[00:03:26] 让一名百年后的猎人

[00:03:26] A hundred years from now may look and despair

[00:03:30] 能注视而绝望

[00:03:30] And see with wonder

[00:03:33] 并叹服着

[00:03:33] The tributes we have left to rust in the parks

[00:03:37] 我们遗留在公园中生锈的致敬

[00:03:37] Swearing that our hair stood on end

[00:03:40] 向天发誓我们都是心弦紧绷着

[00:03:40] To see John Purroy Mitchel depart

[00:03:44] 接受了约翰市长的离世

[00:03:44] For the Western front where work might count

[00:03:51] 给西部前线仍在战斗的每个人

[00:03:51] O mercy O God

[00:03:56] 仁慈的上帝

[00:03:56] Go out await the hunter to decipher the stone

[00:04:05] 谢幕吧 等待猎人来解读石碑上的内容

[00:04:05] And what lies under all the city is gone

[00:04:23] 与被掩埋在下的历史 而城市 已然逝去

[00:04:23] Look and despair

[00:04:30] 注视着并绝望着

[00:04:30] Look and despair

[00:04:35] 注视着并绝望着
