Written by：Van Morrison

You wired the trains and went back home to St. Claire's shores
你曾为火车布线 又回到圣克莱尔的海岸
Before you became a spark down at the yard
在成为船厂工人之前
You were passing through those hungry years alone
你独自熬过那些饥寒交迫的岁月
You were just trying to make a living out in Detroit
在底特律只为谋生而奔波
When you came back off the boats you didn't want to go anywhere
当你从船上归来 哪里都不愿再去
You sit down to TV in your favourite chair
坐在最爱的椅子上看着电视
You watch the big picture fade away down at Harland and Wolff
望着哈兰德与沃尔夫船厂的辉煌逐渐消逝
But you still kept on choppin' wood
但你仍继续劈着柴火
And you came back home to Belfast
你回到贝尔法斯特的家
So you could be with us like
只为与我们团聚
You lived your life of quiet desperation on the side
你默默忍受着生活的绝望
Going to the shipyard in the morning on your bike
每天清晨骑车去船厂
Well the spark was gone but you carried on
火花虽逝 你仍坚持前行
You always did the best you could
始终竭尽全力
You sent for us once but everything fell through
曾召唤我们 却事与愿违
But you still kept on choppin' wood choppin' wood
但你依然砍柴不息 砍柴不息
Well you came back home to Belfast
你终于回到贝尔法斯特的家
So you could be with us like
只为与我们团聚
And you lived a life of quiet desperation on the side
在沉默的绝望中度过岁月
Going to the shipyard in the morning on your bike
每天清晨骑车去船厂
WeIl the spark was gone but you carried on
虽激情不再仍坚持前行
Well you did just the best that you could
竭尽所能做到最好
You sent for us one time but everything fell through
曾召唤我们却终成泡影
But you still kept on choppin' wood
但你仍继续劈着柴火
Kept on choppin' wood
继续砍着柴火
Kept on choppin' wood
继续砍着柴火
Local man chops wood
本地男人砍着柴
You know you did the best you could
你知道已尽了全力
Well everything just fell through
可一切还是落空
Kept on choppin' wood
继续砍着柴火
Chop chop chop chop chop
砍 砍 砍 砍 砍
Chop chop chop chop chop
砍 砍 砍 砍 砍
Chop chop chop keep on choppin'
砍啊砍啊 继续砍下去
Chop chop chop choppin' wood
砍啊砍啊 砍着木头
