歌词选译

Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe

塔霍湖

Cold mountain water

一汪寒彻透骨的山湖

Don't ever swim there

不要在那里游动嬉戏

Just stand on the edge and look in there

只需站在湖边静心观赏

And you might see a woman down there

你或许会看见湖中浮现出一个女人的身影

They say some days, up she comes, up she rises

朋友告诉我她时而出现，时而隐匿

As if out of nowhere

仿佛似幽灵一般神出鬼没

Wearing Victorian dress

她穿着一袭维多利亚长裙

She was calling her pet

她正在呼唤她忠实的爱犬

"Snowflake! Snowflake!"

“雪花！雪花！”

Tumbling like a cloud that has drowned in the lake

她一边喊着一边踉跄着，像一朵云坠入清冷的湖水

Just like a poor, porcelain doll

她睁着双眼，可她的面容像一个毫无生气的瓷娃娃

Her eyes are open but no-one's home

因为斯人已逝，家中空无一人

The clock has stopped

钟摆停止了走动，时间开始凝固

So long, she's gone

她消失了许久

No-one's home

家中空无一人，爱犬在外流浪

Her old dog is sleeping

此时她的爱犬正在某处伏睡

His legs are frail now

尽管廉颇老矣

But when he dreams

但在睡梦中

He runs...

这位老伙计却在矫健地奔跑...

Along long beaches and sticky fields.

跃过长长的海滩，踏过泥泞的田地，

Through the Spooky Wood looking for her.

穿越可怖的森林，只为寻找老主人的家。

The beds are made. The table is laid.

床铺已铺好，桌布已盖上

The door is open - someone is calling: It's a woman.

熟悉的家门已敞开-迎接他的正是主人的声音

"Here boy, here boy! You've come home!

“这里，伙计！这里，伙计！你终于到家了！

I've got an old bone and a biscuit and so much love.

我早为你奉上了你最爱的骨头和饼干，以及主人对你的满满的爱。

Miss me? Did you miss me?

想念我吗？我问你想念我吗？

Here's the kitchen - There's your basket.

这里是厨房-那是你的小窝

Here's the hall - That's where you wait for me.

这里是门厅-每天出行你等候我的地方

Here's the bedroom - You're not allowed in there.

这里是卧室-抱歉我希望你不要进去

Here's my lap - That's where you rest your head.

还有我的膝盖-以前你最喜欢把头靠在这儿歇息

Here boy, oh you're a good boy.

伙计，我的好伙计

You've come home.

这里一切如旧

You've come home.

你可算回来了

You've come home."

你可算回来了。”

Roll his body.

Give him eyes.

Make him smile for me,

再配上一副笑容

I run back inside.

于是我躲进了屋内

I turn off the light,

关上房灯

Switch on a starry night.

Melting, in my hand.

He won't speak to me.

他缄默不语

His crooked mouth is full of dead leaves.

上弯的嘴角堆满了残枝败叶

Full of dead leaves, bits of twisted branches and frozen garden,

crushed and stolen grasses from slumbering lawn.

还有那被暴雪席卷过的这片寂静草坪上的断草根

He is dissolving, dissolving before me and dawn will come soon.

黎明将至，他正在我面前逐渐消融

What kind of spirit is this?

我该怎样赞颂他？

Our one and only tryst.

这是我与他今世唯一一次幽会

His breath all misty,

他的一呼一吸充斥着薄雾状的朦胧之爱

And when I kiss his ice-cream lips

And his creamy skin,

His snowy white arms surround me.

So cold next to me.

The sheets are soaking

被单已濡湿

And on my pillow:

crushed and stolen grasses from slumbering lawn.

还有那芜杂的断草根

I can't find him - Misty..

我再也找不到他-雾状的爱，朦胧的爱

Oh please can you help me?

你能帮帮我吗？

He must be somewhere.
