The Guitar

The Guitar - Guy Clark

以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供

Well I was passing by a pawn shop

我正路过一家当铺

In an older part of town

在老城区的街角

Something caught my eye

有什么抓住了我的目光

And I stopped and turned around

我不由驻足回望

I stepped inside and there I spied

推门而入环顾四周

In the middle of it all

在琳琅满目之间

Was a beat up old guitar

有把破旧的木吉他

Hanging on the wall

静静挂在墙边

What do you want for that piece of junk

这破玩意儿你要价多少

I asked the old man

我问那位老者

He just smiled and took it down

他只是微笑着取下它

And he put it in my hand

轻轻放在我掌心

He said you tell me what it's worth

他说你告诉我它值几何

You're the one who wants it

毕竟是你想要它

Turn it up play a song

调好音弹首歌吧

And let's just see what haunts it

让我们听听它的灵魂

So I hit a couple of cords

我随手拨动几根琴弦

In my old country way of strumming

用乡间老派的扫弦方式

And then my fingers turned to lightning

突然间指尖如闪电跃动

Man I never heard it coming

天啊 这感觉来得猝不及防

It was like I always knew it

仿佛早已铭刻在血脉里

I just don't know where I learned it

却不知何时习得这韵律

It wasn't nothing but the truth

这感觉真实得不容置疑

So I just reared back and burned it

于是我纵情燃烧这旋律

Well I lost all track of time

我全然忘却了时间流逝

There was nothing I couldn't pick

琴弦间游走无往不利

Up and down the neck

在琴颈上下翩然起舞

I never missed a lick

从未错失半拍韵律

The guitar almost played itself

这把吉他似有灵性自弹自唱

There was nothing I could do

我竟束手任其牵引

It was getting hard to tell

渐渐分不清此刻

Just who was playing who

是人在奏琴还是琴在奏人

When I finally put it down

当我终于放下它时

I couldn't catch my breath

几乎无法呼吸

My hands were shaking

双手不停颤抖

And I was scared to death

恐惧深入骨髓

The old man finally got up

老人缓缓起身

Said where in the hell you been

问\"你究竟去了哪里\"

I've been waiting all these years

这把吉他等待多年

For you to stumble in

只为等你偶然走进

Then he took down an old dusty case

他取下布满灰尘的旧琴盒

Said go on and pack it up

说带上它走吧

You don't owe me nothing

你什么都不欠我

And then he said good luck

然后道了声珍重

There was something spooky in his voice

他声音里透着诡异

And something strange on his face

面容也神秘莫测

When he shut the lid

当盒盖合上时

I saw my name was on the case

我看见盒上刻着我的名字
