Vincent

Vincent - Patti Austin (佩蒂·奥斯汀)

Starry starry night

繁星点点的夜里

Paint your palette blue and grey

画出你调色盘里的蓝与灰

Look out on a summer's day

在夏日里出外探访

With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

用你那洞悉我灵魂幽暗处的双眼

Shadows on the hills

山丘上的阴影

Sketch the trees and the daffodils

描绘出树林与水仙花

Catch the breeze and the winter chills

捕捉微风与冬天的冷冽

In colors on the snowy linen land

用那雪地里亚麻般的色彩

Now I understand what you tried to say to me

如今我才明白你想说的是什么

How you suffered for your sanity

当你清醒时你有多么痛苦

How you tried to set them free

你努力的想让它们得到解脱

They would not listen they did not know how

但人们却不理会 也不知该怎么做

Perhaps they'll listen now

也许 人们将学会倾听

Starry starry night

繁星点点的夜里

Flaming flowers that brightly blaze

火红的花朵灿烂的燃烧着

Swirling clouds in violet haze

漩涡似的云飘在紫罗兰色的雾里

Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue

映照在文森特湛蓝的眼瞳里

Colors changing hue morning field of amber grain

色彩变化万千 清晨的田园里琥珀色的农作物

Weathered faces lined in pain

布满风霜的脸上罗列着痛苦

Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

在艺术家怜爱的手下得到抚慰

Now I understand what you tried to say to me

如今我才明白你想说的是什么

How you suffered for your sanity

当你清醒时你有多么痛苦

How you tried to set them free

你努力的想让它们得到解脱

They would not listen they did not know how

但人们却不理会 也不知该怎么做

Perhaps they'll listen now

也许 人们将学会倾听

For they could not love you

因为当初他们无法爱你

But still your love was true

但你的爱依然真切

And when no hope was left in sight

当灿烂的星空里

On that starry starry night

不存一丝希望

You took your life as lovers often do

你像许多恋人一样 结束了自己的生命

But I could have told you Vincent

但愿我能告诉你 文森特

This world was never meant for one

这个世界根本配不上

As beautiful as you

一个美丽如你的人

Starry starry night

繁星点点的夜里

Portraits hung in empty halls

一幅幅的肖像悬挂在空荡荡的大厅里

Frameless head on nameless walls

无镶框的脸倚靠在不知名的墙上

With eyes that watch the world and can't forget

配上一双看遍世事且永不遗忘的双眼

Like the strangers that you've met

就像你曾遇见的陌生人

The ragged men in the ragged clothes

那些衣衫褴褛的人们

The silver thorn of bloody rose

也像血红的玫瑰上银色的刺

Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

断裂并静卧在初下的雪上

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me

我想我已明白你想说的是什么

How you suffered for your sanity

当你清醒时你有多么痛苦

How you tried to set them free

你努力的想让它们得到解脱

They would not listen they're not listening still

但人们却不理会 现在依然如此

Perhaps they never will

也许 他们永远不会
