Dogs at Midnight - Tom Paxton
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
You might hear dogs at midnight
午夜时分或闻犬吠
High up a treeless hill
在荒芜的山岗之上
Workin' their own graveyard shift
它们如矿工般值夜
And howlin' out their fill
将哀嚎填满夜空
While down below in Coal Town
而在下方煤矿小镇
A woman lies awake
有位妇人辗转难眠
And hears her sleeping husband fight
听着丈夫睡梦中
For every breath he takes
为每一口呼吸而战
Oh the rockslide may not get you
落石或许伤不到你
The fire might pass you by
烈火也可能与你擦肩而过
When the gas goes up
当瓦斯弥漫时
It might not be your time to die
或许还不到你命绝之时
But every year gets harder
但每一年呼吸都
To draw a simple breath
变得更加艰难
When the black lung gets you
当黑肺病找上你
That's the kiss of death
那便是死亡的亲吻
You might see old men waiting
你或许会看见老人们
On the county courthouse green
在县法院前的草坪上等待
Tellin' tales at noontime
午间时分讲述着
Of the bitter sights they've seen
他们目睹的辛酸往事
It makes a postcard picture there
这画面如明信片般定格
Beside the courthouse door
在法院门旁
Unless you know just why they're waitin'
除非你知晓他们为何守候
And what they're waitin' for
以及他们等待的是什么
Oh the rockslide may not get you
落石或许伤不到你
The fire might pass you by
烈火也可能与你擦肩而过
When the gas goes up
当瓦斯弥漫时
It might not be your time to die
或许还不到你命绝之时
But every year gets harder
但每一年呼吸都
To draw a simple breath
变得更加艰难
When the black lung gets you
当黑肺病找上你
That's the kiss of death
那便是死亡的亲吻
Oh the rockslide may not get you
落石或许伤不到你
The fire might pass you by
烈火也可能与你擦肩而过
When the gas goes up
当瓦斯弥漫时
It might not be your time to die
或许还不到你命绝之时
But every year gets harder
但每一年呼吸都
To draw a simple breath
变得更加艰难
When the black lung gets you
当黑肺病找上你
That's the kiss of death
那便是死亡的亲吻
When the black lung gets you
当黑肺病找上你
That's the kiss of death
那便是死亡的亲吻
