Delivery Delayed (LP版) - Peter, Paul & Mary (彼得、保罗和玛丽)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
How early is beginning?
生命的起点从何时算起?
From when is there a soul?
灵魂的存在又始于何时?
Do we discover living,
是我们自己发现了生命,
Or somehow are we told?
还是被某种方式告知?
In sudden pain, in empty cold
在突如其来的痛苦和冷漠中,
In blinding light of day
在刺眼的日光下,
We're given breath and it takes our breath away
我们被赋予呼吸,却又被夺走呼吸,
How cruel to unformed fancy,
对未成形的幻想何其残酷,
The way in which we come
我们降临的方式
Overwhelmed by feelings
被情感所淹没
And sudden loss of love
以及突然失去的爱
And what price dark confining
黑暗的束缚代价几何
The heart is to forgive
心灵宽恕的力量
When all at once we're called upon to live
当我们突然被召唤去生活
Then by giant hands we're taken
然后被巨大的手带走
From the shelter of the womb
从子宫的庇护中
That dreaded first horizon
那令人畏惧的初生地平线
The endless empty room
那无尽空荡的房间
Where communion is lost forever
在那里,交流永远消失
When a heart first beats alone
当一颗心首次独自跳动
Still it remembers no matter how it's grown
它依然记得,无论成长到何种地步
We grow, but grow apart
我们成长,却渐行渐远
We live, but more alone
我们活着,却更加孤独
The more to be, the more to see
越是存在,越是看见
To cry aloud that we are free
高声呼喊我们已自由
To hide the ancient fear of being alone
隐藏那古老的孤独恐惧
And now we live in darkness
如今我们活在黑暗中
Embracing spiteful holds
拥抱那充满怨恨的束缚
Refusing any answers
拒绝任何答案
For no man can be told
因为无人能被告知
That delivery is delayed
那救赎已被延迟
Until at last we're made aware
直到我们终于意识到
And first reach for love
并首次伸手去触碰爱
To find t'was always there
才发现它一直都在那里
Always there.
一直都在。
