Hiroshima Nagasaki Russian Roulette (Live at The Point, 2006) - Christy Moore
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
They dropped the bomb in '45 to end the world war
1945年投下原子弹 只为终结世界大战
No-one had ever seen such a terrible sight before
世人从未目睹如此骇人景象
The world looked on with eyes wide to see where it might lead
全球屏息观望 看它将引向何方
The politics of power they passed around their seed
权力游戏轮转 播撒毁灭的种子
It was a time to remember we never can forget
这段记忆永存 我们绝不能遗忘
They were playin' Hiroshima Nagasaki Russian Roulette
他们在玩广岛长崎 这场俄罗斯轮盘赌
They arose like the saviours of our modern human race
他们如救世主般崛起 自诩人类文明之光
With radiation haloes that hung about their face
脸上却笼罩着 致命辐射的光晕
With the key to the sure-cure the treatment of our ills
手握万灵药方 治愈世间疾苦
A hot-shot of cobalt and a pocket-full of pills
一剂钴弹猛药 满袋药丸随身
Speaking always of the enemy who lurked across the sea
总在谈论远洋潜伏的敌寇
While they crept in among us like a carrier disease
却任其如瘟疫般暗中蔓延
Deep down inside the bunkers of the concrete and the lead
深入混凝土与铅铸的掩体
Einstein's disciples working steadily ahead
爱因斯坦门徒昼夜不停歇
Making heavy metal power-plants to fire the city lights
建造重金属发电厂点亮都市
All you can hear in the underground is the humming through the night
地底只闻整夜嗡鸣不绝
And the walls of tight security circle all around
高墙环绕的严密防线 层层包围
Where they spill out their poison and bury it in the ground
他们在此倾泻毒物 深埋地底
Holed up in the harbours hidden secretly away
隐匿在港湾深处 秘密潜藏
War-heads and submarines await to make their play
核弹头与潜艇 伺机而动
The military masterminds improve on their design
军事智囊们 精心改良设计
The soldiers get all doped up and stumble through the lines
士兵们精神恍惚 踉跄越过防线
While the spills into the rivers get carried out by the tide
当毒物流入江河 随潮汐扩散
They call this security I call it suicied
他们称之为安全 我视作自取灭亡
Our statesmen and leaders and politicians pay
我们的政客领袖与当权者
Quick to heed the hand that feeds they're careful what they say
对金主唯命是从 谨言慎行
They call out experts to assure us to wave their magic wands
召来专家安抚民心 挥舞着魔法棒
This is the power of the future And the future marches on
宣称这是未来的力量 而未来仍在推进
And they call in their favours all their political gains
他们兑现政治筹码 捞取利益
While the spills fill the rivers and settle in the plains
任毒液污染河流 渗透平原
I know the minds behind them they are riddled full of holes
我深知决策者们的头脑 早已千疮百孔
Not to be trusted with their hands at the controls
他们手握权柄却不可信任
Their eyesight it is twisted by the glory of their careers
功名利禄早已扭曲了双眼
The heaped praise and flattery is music to their ears
阿谀奉承是他们最爱的乐章
To listen to them talk about how it hasn't happened yet's
听他们高谈"灾难尚未发生"
Like playing Hiroshima Nagasaki Russian Roulette
就像在玩广岛长崎式的俄罗斯轮盘
Hiroshima Nagasaki Russian Roulette
广岛 长崎 生死轮盘
Hiroshima Nagasaki Russian Roulette
广岛 长崎 致命赌局
