Gumtrees By The Roadway (2004 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty/Dick Carr And His Buckaroos

以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供

Tonight here by the roadside

今夜我独自停驻在路旁

After drivin' hard all day

终日奔波后稍作停歇

Dreamin' of the old folks

梦中又见故乡双亲

And a homestead o'er the way

和那远方熟悉的屋檐

In dreams I see the old place

恍惚间旧居浮现眼前

I'll be there within a week

归期已近在七日之间

Where there's gum trees by the roadway

路旁桉树依旧挺拔

And the willows by the creek

溪畔垂柳仍舞翩跹

I see the homestead cattle

我看见牧场上的牛群

As around the place they roam

在农舍周围悠闲漫步

The old man with the horses

父亲独自牵着马儿

On the fields of gold alone

在金黄的田野间耕作

And mother in the doorway

母亲伫立在门廊前

Just to make this scene complete

让这幅画面更显圆满

With gum trees by the roadway

桉树伫立在道路旁

And the willows by the creek

溪畔垂柳仍舞翩跹

I'd like to tell my story

让我用最朴实的语言

In a simple kind of way

讲述这段尘封往事

It happened to many hundreds

在战火纷飞的年代里

In this war torn world today

千万人都有相似故事

I heard the call for duty

当祖国召唤响起时

So I donned the khaki suit

我披上戎装踏上征途

And I marched 'way from the gumtrees

告别桉树婆娑的故乡

And the willows by the creek

溪畔垂柳仍舞翩跹

Now when the war was over

当战争终于结束

And we much the victory mile

我们凯旋而归

The tiles with home walk broken

故乡的小路已残破

And from there I stayed of while

我在此稍作停留

I feld up with some fellows

与几个伙伴结伴

Just to live on easy stricks

只为轻松度日

At the God of bell the gumtrees

在教堂钟声下的桉树旁

And the willows by the creek

溪畔垂柳仍舞翩跹

But when you land in trouble

当你深陷困境之时

And you're placed behind those bars

身陷囹圄铁窗之后

That's when you start dreaming

便会开始魂牵梦萦

Of the country moon and stars

故乡的星月与田畴

And when at last they free you

待到重获自由之日

And you step out on the street

步履蹒跚出街头

Nothing then could hold you

世间再无羁绊能阻

From the homestead by the creek

归心似箭向溪流

That's why tonight I'm standing

这就是为何今夜我驻足

By this cheery roadside fire

在这欢快的篝火旁

Takin' in the country

感受乡野的气息

Underneath the summer stars

在夏夜的星空下

From now on you will find me

从今往后你将寻到我

Where the air is fresh and sweet

在那空气清新甜美的地方

Where forever there'll be gum trees

那里永远有桉树挺立

And the willows by the creek

溪畔垂柳仍舞翩跹
