The Island
The Island
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Over an ocean and over a sea
跨越重洋，历经万水千山
Beyond these great waters oh what do I see
极目远眺那浩渺烟波，啊，我看见了什么？
I see the great mountains
我望见巍峨群山
Climb from the coastline
自海岸线拔地而起
The hills of Cape Breton this new home of mine
布雷顿角的岗峦，这片属于我的新家园
Oh they come from the countries all over the world
噢，人们从世界各国汇聚于此
To hack at the forest to plow the land down
披荆斩棘开垦荒林，翻耕这片土地
Fishermen farmers and sailors all come
渔夫、农户与水手纷至沓来
To clear for the future this pioneer ground
在这片拓荒之地，为后世开辟基业
We are an island a rock in a stream
吾辈是一座岛屿，是洪流中岿然的磐石
We are a people as proud as there's been
吾辈是世间最引以为傲的子民
In soft summer breeze or in wild winter winds
无论夏日微风和煦，抑或冬日狂风肆虐
The home of our hearts Cape Breton
吾辈心之所属，布雷顿角
Over the rooftops and over the trees
越过层叠的屋顶，穿过繁茂的林木
Within these new townships oh what do I see
走进这些新兴城镇，啊，我看见了什么？
I see the black pitheads the coal-wheels are turning
我看见漆黑的矿井架，绞轮正隆隆旋转
The smokestacks are belching and the blast furnace burning
烟囱喷吐着浓烟，高炉正炽烈燃烧
Oh the sweat on the back is no joy to behold
噢，那脊背上的汗水，绝非悦目的风景
In the heat of the steel plant or mining the coal
无论在酷热的钢铁厂，还是深邃的煤矿中
And the foreign-owned companies
那些外资公司
Force us to fight
迫使我们奋起反抗
For our survival and for our rights
为了生存，也为了捍卫权利
We are an island a rock in a stream
吾辈是一座岛屿，是洪流中岿然的磐石
We are a people as proud as there's been
吾辈是世间最引以为傲的子民
In soft summer breeze or in wild winter winds
无论夏日微风和煦，抑或冬日狂风肆虐
The home of our hearts Cape Breton
吾辈心之所属，布雷顿角
Over the highways and over the roads
越过宽阔的公路，走过纵横的小径
Over the causeway stories are told
漫长堤道之上，无数往事在流传
They tell of the coming and the going away
诉说着归来的喜悦，与离去的哀愁
The cities of America draw me away
异国都市的繁华，将我放逐远方
Ah the companies come the companies go
呵，资本巨头来了又走，利尽则散
And the ways of the world we may never know
世道浮沉的规律，我们或许永难参透
We'll follow the footsteps of those on their way
我们将追随前人的足迹踏上征途
And we'll ask for the right to leave or to stay
并要求拥有去留自由的权利
We are an island a rock in a stream
吾辈是一座岛屿，是洪流中岿然的磐石
We are a people as proud as there's been
吾辈是世间最引以为傲的子民
In soft summer breeze or in wild winter winds
无论夏日微风和煦，抑或冬日狂风肆虐
The home of our hearts Cape Breton
吾辈心之所属，布雷顿角
We are an island a rock in a stream
吾辈是一座岛屿，是洪流中岿然的磐石
We are a people as proud as there's been
吾辈是世间最引以为傲的子民
In soft summer breeze or in wild winter winds
无论夏日微风和煦，抑或冬日狂风肆虐
The home of our hearts Cape Breton
吾辈心之所属，布雷顿角
The home of our hearts Cape Breton
吾辈心之所属，布雷顿角
