You get a shiver in the dark
暗夜里的一阵寒意侵骨
It's raining in the park but meantime
公园里冷雨连绵，与此同时
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
在那河之南，你驻足屏息
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
一支乐队正吹奏着四四拍的老派爵士
You feel alright when you hear that music ring
乐声响起，你紧绷的心弦终得慰藉
You step inside but you don't see too many faces
步入其中，座中宾客寥寥
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
躲过冷雨，只为听那一抹爵士余韵
Too much competition too many other places
同行竞争激烈，繁华处处皆是
But not too many horns can make that sound
却鲜有管乐能奏出这般孤傲的声响
Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town
在那伦敦城南，在那伦敦城南
You check out Guitar George he knows all the chords
且看吉他手乔治，万般和弦烂熟于心
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
他只求节奏稳健，不愿让琴弦炫技哀鸣
And an old guitar is all he can afford
半生唯有一把旧琴，那是他的全部
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
站在灯光下，他便沉浸在自我的世界
And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
哈里并不介意，无意混迹名利场
He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
白天的正经差事，让他生活尚且体面
He can play honky tonk just like anything
演奏起酒馆钢琴，那叫一个信手拈来
Saving it up for Friday night
所有的满腔热情，都留给周五的夜晚
With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing
跟随那摇摆苏丹，跟随那摇摆苏丹
And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner now
角落里一帮少年，正旁若无人地嬉闹
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
醉意朦胧，穿着棕色阔腿裤与厚底鞋
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
对这支吹着小号的乐队，他们丝毫不屑
It ain't what they call rock and roll
这早已不是他们眼中的摇滚乐
And the Sultans and the Sultans played Creole Creole
而摇摆苏丹，依然演奏着克里奥尔
And the man he steps right up to the microphone
那个男人径直走向麦克风
And says at last just as the time bell rings
伴着打烊的铃声，他终于开口
'Goodnight now it's time to go home'
“晚安各位，该回家了”
And he makes it fast with one more thing
临行之前，他又匆匆补上一句
'We are the Sultans we are the sultans of Swing'
“我们是摇摆苏丹，我们就是摇摆苏丹”
