Tapestry (Live) - Don McLean (唐·麦克林)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Every thread of creation is held in position
万物生灵如丝线交织相系
By still other strands of things living
依存于其他生命的脉络里
In an earthly tapestry hung from the skyline
悬于天际的尘世织锦之下
Of smoldering cities so gray and so vulgar
灰暗粗鄙的闷烧城市群像
As not to be satisfied with their own negativity
贪婪永不餍足自身腐坏
But needing to touch all the living as well
偏要将生机也尽数沾染
And every breeze that blows kindly is one crystal breath
每缕和风都是剔透的吐纳
We exhale on the blue diamond heaven
我们向蓝钻苍穹呼出的气息
As gentle to touch as the hands of the healer
如医者抚慰般轻柔的触碰
As soft as farewells whispered over the coffin
似棺椁旁低语的诀别般温柔
We're poisoned by venom with each breath we take
每次呼吸都浸染着毒液
From the brown sulfer chimney and the black highway snake
来自褐烟囱与黑色公路蛇
And every dawn that breaks golden is held in suspension
每个金色的黎明都悬浮着
Like the yolk of the egg in albumen
像蛋白包裹的蛋黄般脆弱
Where the birth and the death of unseen generations
无数世代生死轮回的奥秘
Are interdependant in vast orchestration
在这宏大乐章里交织依存
And painted in colors of tapestry thread
如织锦彩线交织的斑斓画卷
When the dying are born and the living are dead
当垂死者新生 而活着的人已死去
And every pulse of your heartbeat is one liquid moment
每一次心跳都是流淌的永恒
That flows through the veins of your being
在你生命的血脉中奔涌不息
Like a river of life flowing on since creation
似创世之初便流淌的生命长河
Approaching the sea with each new generation
每一代人都更接近那片海洋
You're now just a stagnant and rancid disgrace
如今你却沦为腐臭的耻辱
That is rapidly drowning the whole human race
正迅速淹没整个人类种族
And every fish that swims silent every bird that fly freely
每条沉默游弋的鱼 每只自由翱翔的鸟
Every doe that steps softly
每头轻盈漫步的鹿
Every crisp leaf that falls all the flowers that grow
每片飘落的脆叶 每朵绽放的鲜花
On this colorful tapestry somehow they know
在这斑斓织锦上 它们冥冥知晓
That if man is allowed to destroy all we need
若放任人类摧毁生存所需
He will soon have to pay with his life for his greed
终将以生命为贪婪付出代价
