Written by：Gordon Lightfoot

Oh the neon lights were flashin'
霓虹灯光闪烁刺眼
And the icy wind did blow
刺骨寒风呼啸而过
The water seeped into his shoes
冰水渗进他破旧的鞋
And the drizzle turned to snow
细雨渐化作纷飞雪
His eyes were red his hopes were dead
双眼通红希望湮灭
And the wine was runnin' low
酒瓶将空余味苦涩
And the old man came home
老人蹒跚归家来
From the forest
自那幽暗森林间
His tears fell on the sidewalk
泪水滴落在人行道上
As he stumbled in the street
他踉跄走在街头
A dozen faces stopped to stare
无数目光驻足凝视
But no one stopped to speak
却无人停下问候
For his castle was a hallway
他的城堡只是过道
And the bottle was his friend
酒瓶是他唯一挚友
And the old man stumbled in
老人蹒跚着走进
From the forest
自那幽暗森林间
Up a dark and dingy staircase
沿着幽暗破旧的楼梯
The old man made his way
老人蹒跚向上攀爬
His ragged coat around him
褴褛外套裹紧身躯
As upon his cot he lay
蜷缩在简陋床榻
And he wondered how it happened
他困惑命运为何
That he ended up this way
沦落至此般境况
Getting lost like a fool
像个迷途的愚人
In the forest
在森林深处彷徨
And as he lay there sleeping
当他沉睡之时
A vision did appear
幻影悄然浮现
Upon his mantle shining
壁炉架上闪耀着
A face of one so dear
那熟悉的面容
Who had loved him in the springtime
曾在遗忘的岁月里
Of a long forgotten year
春日般深爱着他
When the wildflowers did bloom
当野花绽放的时节
In the forest
在森林深处彷徨
She touched his grizzled fingers
她轻抚他斑驳的手指
And she called him by his name
呼唤着他的名字
And then he heard the joyful sound
随后他听见欢快的声音
Of children at their games
是孩子们嬉戏的笑语
In an old house on a hillside
在山坡上的老屋里
In some forgotten town
在那被遗忘的小镇
Where the river runs down
河水静静流淌
From the forest
自那幽暗森林间
With a mighty roar the big jets soar
巨型喷气机轰鸣着掠过天际
Above the canyon streets
在峡谷般的街道上方
And the con men con but life goes on
骗子们继续行骗 生活仍在继续
For the city never sleeps
因为这座城市永不入眠
And to an old forgotten soldier
而对那个被遗忘的老兵来说
The dawn will come no more
黎明再也不会到来
For the old man has come home
老人终于回到了家
From the forest
自那幽暗森林间
