Strange Fruit

Strange Fruit - Billie Holiday (比莉.荷莉戴)

Southern trees

南方的树

Bear strange fruit

结出陌生的果实

Blood on the leaves

鲜血沾满树叶

And blood at the root

鲜血沾满树根

Black bodies swinging

黑色的树干摇摆

In the southern breeze

在南风中

Strange fruit hanging

奇异的果实在

From the poplar trees

白杨树上挂着

Pastoral scene

醉人田园风光

Of the gallant south

广阔的南方

The bulging eyes

双眼睁凸

And the twisted mouth

嘴唇扭曲

Scent of magnolias

木兰花香

Sweet and fresh

清新和甜美

Then the sudden smell

突然散发气味

Of burning flesh

从烧着的鲜肉而来

Here is fruit

这水果是

For the crows to pluck

乌鸦啄食的

For the rain to gather

由于吸收雨水

For the wind to suck

吸入风气

For the sun to rot

因太阳照射而腐烂

For the trees to drop

从树上掉下

Here is a strange

这果成了奇异

And bitter crop

而苦涩的作物
