Hungry Eyes - Merle Haggard
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
A canvas covered cabin
帆布覆盖的小屋
In a crowded labour camp
在拥挤的劳工营中
Stand out in this memory I revived;
在我复苏的记忆中格外醒目
Cause my daddy raised a family there
因为我的父亲在那里用双手养家
With two hard working hands
用他勤劳的双手
And tried to feed my mama's hungry eyes
试图填满母亲饥饿的眼神
He dreamed of something better
他梦想着更好的生活
And my mama's faith was strong
而母亲的信仰坚定
And us kids were just to young to realize
我们这些孩子还太小,无法理解
That another class of people
另一个阶层的人们
Put us somewhere just below;
将我们置于低下的位置;
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
这又是我母亲那渴望眼神的一个原因
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
母亲从未拥有她想要的奢侈品
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try
但那并不是因为父亲没有努力
She only wanted things she really needed;
她只想要她真正需要的东西;
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
这又是我母亲那渴望眼神的一个原因
I remember daddy praying for a better way of life
我记得父亲曾祈祷过上更好的生活
But I don't recall a change of any size;
但我未曾见过任何实质的改变
Just a little loss of courage
只是随着年岁增长
As their age began to show
他们的勇气逐渐消逝
And more sadness in my mama's hungry eyes
母亲饥饿的眼神中充满了更多的悲伤
Mama never had the luxuries she wanted
母亲从未拥有她想要的奢侈品
But it wasn't cause my daddy didn't try
但那并不是因为父亲没有努力
She only wanted things she really needed;
她只想要她真正需要的东西;
One more reason for my mama's hungry eyes
这又是我母亲那渴望眼神的一个原因
Oh I still recall my mama's hungry eyes
哦,我仍记得母亲那渴望的眼神
