Acadian Driftwood - Shawn Colvin (肖恩·卡文)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
The war was over and the spirit was broken
战争结束 精神已溃散
The hills were smokin' as the men withdrew
硝烟弥漫山岗 士兵撤退远行
And we stood on the cliffs and watched the ships
我们伫立崖边 遥望船只
Slowly sinking to their rendezvous
缓缓沉没 驶向命定终点
They signed a treaty and our homes were taken
条约签署 家园遭掠夺
Loved ones forsaken they didn't give a damn
至亲被遗弃 他们冷眼旁观
You try to raise a family end up the enemy
想组建家庭 反成众矢之的
Over what went down on the plains of Abraham
皆因亚伯拉罕平原那场浩劫
Acadian driftwood gypsy tail wind
阿卡迪亚人如飘萍 随风流浪
They call my home the land of snow
他们称我的故乡为雪域
Canadian cold front movin' in
加拿大寒流正侵袭而来
What a way to ride oh what a way to go
这是怎样的征程 又是怎样的归途
Then some returned to the motherland
后来有人重返故土
The high command had them cast away
却被当权者无情放逐
And some stayed on to finish what they started
也有人留下完成未竟事业
They never parted they're just built that way
他们永不分离 生来如此坚韧
We had kin livin' south of the border
我们有亲人在边境以南生活
They're a little older and they've been around
他们年岁稍长 历经沧桑
They wrote a letter life is a whole lot better
来信写道生活已大有改善
So pull up your stakes children and come on down
孩子们 收拾行装南下吧

They call my home the land of snow
他们称我的故乡为雪域
Canadian cold front movin' in

What a way to ride oh what a way to go

Fifteen under zero and the day became a threat
零下十五度 白昼也成威胁
My clothes were wet and
衣衫尽湿透
I was drenched to the bone
寒彻骨髓里
I've been out ice fishing too much repetition
终日冰上垂钓 周而复始
Make a man wanna leave the only home he's known
让人只想逃离这唯一家园
Sailed out of the gulf headin' for Saint Pierre
驶离海湾 航向圣皮埃尔
Nothin' to declare all we had was gone
一无所有 身无长物
Broke down along the coast
沿岸漂泊 船只搁浅
But what hurt the most
但最令人痛心的是
Cause when the people there
当那里的人们说
Said you better keep movin' on
你最好继续前行

Everlasting summer filled with ill-content

This government had us walkin' in chains

This isn't my turf this ain't my season
这不是我的故土 亦非我的时节
Can't think of one good reason to remain
找不到任何留下的理由
And we worked in the sugar fields up from New Orleans
我们曾在纽奥良的蔗田劳作
It was ever green up until the floods
洪水来袭前 那里四季常青
You could call it an omen points ya where you're goin'
你可称之为预兆 指引前路方向
But I set my compass north
但我将罗盘指向北方
I got winter in my blood
