Love Minus Zero, No Limit (Live at Nippon Budokan Hall, Tokyo, Japan - February/March 1978) - Bob Dylan

Written by：Bob Dylan

My love she speaks like silence

我的爱 她说话总是软声细语

Without ideals or violence

不奢谈理想 也不恶语中伤

She doesn't have to say she's faithful

她不把忠诚挂在嘴边

Yet she's true like ice like fire

然而她像冰像火一样真实

People carry roses

人们拿着玫瑰

Make promises by the hours

时刻许下誓言

My love she laughs like the flowers

我的爱 她笑起来像花朵

Valentines can't buy her

情人节礼物可不能打动她

In the dime stores and bus stations

在杂货店和公交车站

People talk of situations

人们谈论局势

Read books repeat quotations

阅读书籍 重复引用

Draw conclusions on the wall

把结论涂到墙上

Some speak of the future

说到未来

My love she speaks softly

我的爱 她轻言细语

She knows there's no success like failure

她知道不经历失败就不会成功

And that failure's no success at all

她懂得失败是成功之母

The cloak and dagger dangles

斗篷和短剑在晃动

Madams light the candles

女士们点燃蜡烛

In ceremonies of the horsemen

在骑手们的典礼上

Even the pawn must hold a grudge

即便是无名小卒也必定心有嫉妒

Statues made of match sticks

火柴杆做成的塑像

Crumble into one another

彼此相抵碎裂在一起

My love winks she does not bother

我的爱 视若无睹 她不为所扰

She knows too much to argue or to judge

她知道要争论或评判的东西实在太多

The bridge at midnight trembles

那座桥在午夜颤颤巍巍

The country doctor rambles

那乡野医生四处游荡

Bankers' nieces seek perfection

银行家的侄女们追求完美

Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring

期待着精明之人带来所有礼物

The wind howls like a hammer

大风嚎叫 像一把锤子在凿凿作响

The night blows cold and rainy

夜风裹夹着雨水

My love she's like some raven

我的爱 她像是某只飞鸟

At my window with a broken wing

带着它折断的翅膀落在我的窗前
