Dance Of Death
Dance Of Death - Iron Maiden (铁娘子)
Let me tell you a story
有个故事讲给你听
To chill the bones
保证让你胆战心惊
About a thing that I saw
这是我的亲身经历
One night wandering
一天夜里
In the everglades
迷失在沼泽里
I'd one drink but no more
喝了点小酒 但绝对不多
I was rambling enjoying
我四处闲逛
The bright moonlight
享受着明亮的月光
Gazing up at the stars
对着繁星凝望
Not aware of a presence
竟没察觉 有人靠近
So near to me
咫尺的距离
Watching my every move
观察着我的一举一动
Feeling scared and I fell to my knees
我感到恐惧 跪倒在地
As something rushed me from the trees
树后某物 冲向这里
Took me to an unholy place
带我去到 邪恶之地
And that is where I fell from grace
那也是 我的堕落之地
Then they summoned me over
他们唤我过去
To join in with them
加入他们的集体
To the dance of the dead
共跳死亡舞曲
Into the circle of fire
到火圈中去
I followed them
我跟了过去
Into the middle I was led
直到中心
As if time had stopped still
时间仿佛静止
I was numb with fear
我充满了麻木和恐惧
But still I wanted to go
但仍渴望前去
And the blaze of the fire
火中之焰
Did no hurt upon me
未伤我分毫
As I walked onto the coals
即使我踏上烧红的木炭
And I felt I was in a trance
我感觉自己着了迷
And my spirit was lifted from me
我的灵魂脱离了肉体
And if only someone had the chance
多希望有人有幸
To witness what happened to me
能见证我的遭遇
And I danced and I pranced
我随着舞步 欢欣跳跃
And I sang with them
和他们高歌一曲
All had death in their eyes
他们眼里是死亡的气息
Lifeless figures they were
每个人都毫无生气
Undead all of them
每个人都是不死的躯体
They had ascended from hell
他们都来自地狱
As I danced with the dead
我与死者共舞
My free spirit was laughing
我那自由的灵魂在嘲笑
And howling down at me
并对着自己咆哮
Below my undead body
在我那不死的肉体下
Just danced the circle of dead
是围成圈跳着舞的尸体
Until the time came to reunite us both
直到重聚的时间将近
My spirit came back down to me
我的灵魂回到了肉体
I didn't know if I was alive or dead
我不知自己是活着 还是已经死去
As the others all joined in with me
所有人都加入到我这里
By luck then a skirmish started
侥幸的是 冲突发起
And took the attention away from me
注意力都不在我这里
When they took their gaze from me
当他们不再看向我自己
Was the moment that I fled
正是我逃离之际
I ran like hell faster than the wind
我拼命奔跑 快过风力
But behind I did not glance
回头一瞥都来不及
One thing that I did not dare
我唯一敢做的
Was to look just straight ahead
是直视前方
When you know that your time has come around
当你知道时机来临
You know you'll be prepared for it
你将提前做好准备
Say your last goodbyes to everyone
向所有人告别
Drink and say a prayer for it
最后一次喝酒 再做临终祈愿
When you're lying in your sleep
当你在睡梦中躺着
When you're lying in your bed
当你在床上躺着
And you wake from your dreams
当你从梦中醒来
To go dancing with the dead
与死者共舞
When you're lying in your sleep
当你在睡梦中躺着
When you're lying in your bed
当你在床上躺着
And you wake from your dreams
当你从梦中醒来
To go dancing with the dead
与死者共舞
To this day I guess I'll never know
直到今天我仍不知道
Just why they let me go
他们为何放我走
But I'll never go dancing no more
但我再也不会跳舞了
'Til I dance with the dead
直到我与死者共舞
