Distant Light - Dr. Dog

以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供

The man appeared to me inside that yellow wood.

那人在黄木中出现在我面前。

I'd carved his name in the dirt, at the crossroads where we stood.

在我们站立的十字路口，我在泥土上刻下了他的名字。

He said, “Are you looking for directions?”

他说：“你在寻找方向吗？”

I said, “Gee, I wish you would. Which way to the infinite road that unwinds from within.”

我说：“哎呀，我真希望你能告诉我。哪条路通向那从内心展开的无限之路。”

He said, “Follow the distant light”

他说：“跟随远处的光。”

Oh' you know I will! Follow the distant light, just a little bit over the hill

哦，你知道我会的！跟随远处的光，就在山丘那边一点点。

Follow the distant light and although you'll never near it.

追随那遥远的光，尽管你永远无法触及。

You can travel on forever and you'll never be back here.

你可以永远前行，却再也无法回到这里。

I said, “alright”

我说：“好吧。”

The stranger appeared to me, he hopped down from his tree.

那陌生人出现在我面前，他从树上跳下。

I said, “I can give you anything, but you know that nothing's free.”

我说：“我可以给你任何东西，但你知道没有什么是免费的。”

Well I could take it or leave it. I said, “well what do you want from me.”

我可以接受或放弃。我说：“那你想要我做什么？”

He said, “nothing much really, just a small token of appreciation

他说：“其实不多，只是一点小小的感激，

That would mean so little to man like you and so much to a man like me.”

这对你来说微不足道，但对我却意义重大。”

Gimme the distant light.

给我那远处的光。

Oh no I cannot do it

哦不，我无法做到。

Gimme the distant light, he said through his teeth

给我那远处的光，他咬牙切齿地说。

Gimme the distant light

给我那远处的光。

I said, “I ain't quite yet through with it”

我说，“我还没准备好放弃。”

As I saw it shining dimly through the branches of his tree, I walked on

当我看到它透过他树枝间微弱地闪烁，我继续前行。

Following the distant light.

追随那远处的光。

Like the way some people look for parking

就像有些人寻找停车位一样。

Following the distant light, and tripping all over my feet

追随那远方的光，跌跌撞撞前行

But following the distant light

但依然追随那远方的光

And I know if I keep walking, I'll never touch it,

我知道即使继续走，也永远无法触及，

But as long as I move it'll shine down on me.

但只要我前行，它就会照耀我。
