The Times They Are A-Changin' - Bob Dylan
Written by:Bob Dylan
Come gather 'round people
无论何处漫游
Wherever you roam
请快聚首
And admit that the waters
承认吧周遭洪水
Around you have grown
已开始涨起
And accept it that soon
接受这现实
You'll be drenched to the bone
很快你会感到透骨凉意
If your time to you
若你的时代仍有价值
Is worth savin'
值得拯救
Then you better start swimmin'
那就赶快游起
Or you'll sink like a stone
否则沉沦如石头
For the times they are a changin'
因为这时代正在变革
Come writers and critics
来吧 以笔预言的作家
Who prophesize with your pen
批评家们
And keep your eyes wide
请睁大你们的双眼
The chance won't come again
良机难再至
And don't speak too soon
不必太快做出结论
For the wheel's still in spin
车轮仍在滚滚前进
And there's no tellin' who
青史留名
That it's namin'
此刻尚无定论
For the loser now
输家翻盘
Will be later to win
早晚的事
For the times they are a changin'
因为这时代正在变革
Come senators congressmen
来吧 议员们
Please heed the call
请留心这呼声
Don't stand in the doorway
不要紧守门道
Don't block up the hall
不要封锁厅门
For he that gets hurt
凡阻挠者
Will be he who has stalled
都要付出伤痛
There's a battle outside
斗争的烈焰
And it is ragin'
正在外面汹涌
It'll soon shake your windows
不久就要震撼
And rattle your walls
你们的深宫
For the times they are a changin'
因为这时代正在变革
The line it is drawn
界限已划清
The curse it is cast
诅咒已显效
The slow one now
今日踟蹰不前者
Will later be fast
他日迅如疾风
As the present now
世界当前
Will later be past
转眼明日黄花
The order is
眼下秩序
Rapidly fadin'
日渐消融
And the first one now
今朝最是风流
Will later be last
他日沦落末流
For the times they are a changin'
因为这时代正在变革
