好久没有听到这首歌了。今天忽然间听到又忍不住多听几次。
If I die young
If I die young bury me in satin
若我英年早逝 请将我葬在绸缎中
Lay me down on a bed of roses
让我躺在铺满玫瑰的床上
Sink me in the river at dawn
在黎明时分将我沉入河中
Send me away with the words of a love song
用一首甜蜜的情歌送走我
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Lord make me a rainbow'
I'll shine down on my mother
主啊 请让我化作彩虹
我想要照耀我的母亲
She'll know I'm safe with you
当她站在我的七彩之下
When she stands under my colors
她就会知道我和您一起幸福平安
Oh and life ain't always what you think it ought to be' no
生活并不总像你所预料的那样
Ain't even grey' but she buries her baby
头发并未花白 却埋葬了自己的孩子
The sharp knife of a short life' well
须臾生命如同锋利刀刃
I’ve had just enough time
我已经活了足够的时间
If I die young bury me in satin
若我英年早逝 请将我葬在绸缎中
Lay me down on a bed of roses
让我躺在铺满玫瑰的床上
Sink me in the river at dawn
在黎明时分将我沉入河中
Send me away with the words of a love song
用一首甜蜜的情歌送走我
The sharp knife of a short life' well
须臾生命如同锋利刀刃
I’ve had just enough time
我已经活了足够的时间
And I’ll be wearing white when
I come into your kingdom
我会一袭白衣 来到您的殿堂
I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger
就像我冰冷手指上的指环那样青涩
I've never known the lovin' of a man
我还从没有感受过一个男子的温柔
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
但他牵我手的时候
那种感觉一定非常美好
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
小镇上有个男孩说他会永远爱我
Who would have thought forever
could be severed by
谁又能想到永远竟会就这样天人永隔
The sharp knife of a short life' well
须臾生命如同锋利刀刃
I've had just enough time
我已经活了足够的时间
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
所以请你盛装出席吧
而我也会带上我的珍珠项链
What I never did is done
我所有的心愿都已经完成
A penny for my thoughts' oh no
I'll sell them for a dollar
曾经不被看重的一切
现在却成了无价之宝
They're worth so much more
after I’m a goner
只有在我死去之后
它们才变得更有价值
And maybe then you'll hear the
words I been singing
也许到了那时 你才会真正
听懂我唱过的歌
Funny when you're dead how
people start listening
可笑的是 人们的倾听总是慢于死亡
If I die young bury me in satin
若我英年早逝 请将我葬在绸缎中
Lay me down on a bed of roses
让我躺在铺满玫瑰的床上
Sink me in the river at dawn
在黎明时分将我沉入河中
Send me away with the words
of a love song
用一首甜蜜情歌的词句送走我
Oh oh
Oh oh
The ballad of a dove
白鸽唱起歌谣
Go with peace and love
带着爱与平静
Gather up your tears 'keep'em
in your pocket
请收起你为我而流的眼泪吧
在你的口袋里装好
Save them for a time when your really gonna need'em oh
好好保留 直到你真正需要
它们的那一天
The sharp knife of a short life'well
须臾生命如同锋利刀刃
I've had just enough time
我已经活了足够的时间
So put on your best boys and
I'll wear my pearls
所以请你盛装出席吧
而我也会带上我的珍珠项链
