The Pony Man - Gordon Lightfoot

The Pony Man - Gordon Lightfoot
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
When it's midnight on the meadow
当午夜降临牧场
And the cats are in the shed
猫儿蜷在棚屋安眠
And the river tells a story
河水在窗边低语
At the window by my bed
为我讲述古老传说
If you listen very closely
若你屏息凝神
Be as quiet as you can
保持最轻的声响
In the yard you'll hear him
就能听见院子里
It is the pony man
小马人清脆的铃铛
We're always there to greet him
我们总在院中等候他的到来
When he tumbles into town
当他摇摇晃晃进小镇
He leads a string of ponies
身后跟着一群小马驹
Some are white and some are brown
有的雪白 有的棕黄
And they never seem to kick or bite
它们从不踢咬使性子
They only want to play
只想尽情嬉戏玩耍
And they live on candy apples
它们以糖果苹果为食
Instead of oats and hay
而非寻常的干草燕麦
And when we're all assembled
当我们全都聚集在一起
He gives a soft command
他轻声发出号令
And we climb aboard our ponies
我们爬上各自的小马
As in a row the stand
整齐列队待发
Then down the road we gallop
沿着小路疾驰而去
And across the fields we fly
飞跃过片片田野
And soon we all go sailing off
很快我们就要扬帆起航
Into the midnight sky
驶向午夜的星空
And as we gaily rock along
我们欢快地摇摇晃晃
Beside a ripplin' sea
沿着波光粼粼的海边
There's Tom 'n **** 'n Sally
汤姆、迪克和莎莉
And Mary Joe and me
玛丽乔和我都在场
And the pony man is leading
小马人在前方引路
Cause he's travelled here before
因他曾走过这地方
And he gives a whoop and a holler
他对着月亮先生的门前
At Mr Moon's front door
发出欢快的呼喊
And then we stop to rest a while
我们停下稍作休憩
Where the soda river glides
在苏打河静静流淌处
Up to the slip comes a pirate ship
一艘海盗船悄然靠岸
To take us for a ride
载我们开启新航程
And the pony man's the captain
小马人化身船长
And the children are the crew
孩子们都是水手
And we go in search of treasure
我们扬帆寻宝去
And laugh the whole night through
整夜欢笑不停歇
And when the hold is filled with gold
当船舱装满黄金宝藏
And the sails begin to strain
风帆开始迎风鼓胀
And the deck's piled high with apple pie
甲板堆满香甜苹果派
We head for port again
我们便启程返航
Then down the whirling starcase
沿着旋转的星光阶梯
So swift our ponies fly
小马载我们疾驰飞翔
And we're safely in our beds again
当晨光轻吻天际之时
When the sunbeams kiss the sky
我们已安然回到梦乡
When it's midnight on the meadow
当午夜降临牧场
And the cats are in the shed
猫儿蜷在棚屋安眠
And the river tells a story
河水在窗边低语
At the window by my bed
为我讲述古老传说
If you listen very closely
若你屏息凝神
Be as quiet as you can
保持最轻的声响
In the yard you'll hear him
就能听见院子里
It is the pony man
小马人清脆的铃铛
