History Book(Live)

Artist：dry the river

Songs Title：history book

Like faithful oxen through the chalk

就像忠贞不渝的公牛穿过粉笔

With dragging tails of history walk

拖着历史的尾巴

Soon confuse the compass and the cross

很快就会混淆指南针和十字架

Carefully and cursively we fill our travelling diaries with loss

我们小心翼翼地在旅行日记里写下我们的损失

Beneath an angry Bible flood

在愤怒的《圣经》洪水之下

Did you and I first learn to love

你和我是不是第一次学会爱

In my father's car we came to know

在我父亲的车里我们渐渐明白

And shivered in our painted clothes and paired like every animal below

我们穿着彩绘衣服瑟瑟发抖就像下面的动物一样成双成对

As heavy as a history book can be

就像历史书一样沉重

I will carry it with me oh Lord

我会随身携带上帝啊

And maybe when the bitterness has gone

也许当痛苦烟消云散

There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more

我们会再次感受到甜蜜的滋味

Barefoot in a rowing boat

光着脚划着赛艇

You lose your shoes and freeze your toes

你脱掉鞋子冻住脚趾

And say I wear my sorrow like a crown

说我把悲伤当做王冠戴在身上

And throw your arms around my head and see it there in gold and red and brown

你的双臂环抱着我的头我看见金色、红色和棕色的头发

As heavy as a history book can be

就像历史书一样沉重

I will carry it with me oh Lord

我会随身携带上帝啊

And maybe when the bitterness has gone

也许当痛苦烟消云散

There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more

我们会再次感受到甜蜜的滋味

We'll soon forget our parents' names

我们很快就会忘记父母的名字

Like dogs will drive the wolves away

就像恶狗可以赶走恶狼

And weep with fingertips opposed

泪流成河指尖与我作对

Like a church where nobody congregates

就像没有人聚集的教堂

But sweetness sings in the pasture

但是甜美的歌声在牧场响起

We throw ourselves on the mercy of the earth

我们祈求大地的怜悯

If sand and salt have the answer

如果沙子和盐能找到答案

Then the act itself will be louder than the word

行动本身会比话语更响亮

And I'll be on your side And I'll be on your side And I'll be on your side

我会陪在你身边我会伴你左右
