Dreamland - Sopor Aeternus

By a route obscure and lonely
在一条偏僻孤寂的道路上
Haunted by ill angels only
只有邪恶的天使作祟
Where an eidolon named night
一个名叫黑夜的精灵
On a black throne reigns upright
在黑暗的王座上高高在上
I have reached these lands but newly
我到达这片土地可这是新的
From an ultimate dim thule
来自一个极端黑暗的地方
From a wild clime that lieth sublime
来自一片崇高的荒野
Out of space out of time
没有空间没有时间
Bottomless vales and boundless floods
无尽的山谷无尽的洪水
And chasms and caves and titan woods
有裂缝有洞穴有巨人的树林
With forms that no man can discover
以无人能及的形式出现
For the tears that drip all over
为我流下的泪水
Mountains toppling evermore
高山不断崩塌
Into seas without a shore
消失在没有海岸的大海里
Seas that restlessly aspire
心潮澎湃的大海
Surging unto skies of fire
冲向烈焰的天空
Lakes that endlessly outspread
无尽延伸的湖泊
Their lone waters lone and dead
孤独无依死气沉沉
Their still waters still and chilly
平静如水寒冷刺骨
With the snows of the lolling
在雪地里闲逛
By the lakes that thus outspread
在如此浩瀚的湖泊旁
Their lone waters lone and dead
孤独无依死气沉沉
Their sad waters sad and chilly
悲伤的海水又悲伤又寒冷
With the snows of the lolling lily
就像雪花飘落的百合
By the mountains near the river
在河边的山上
Murmuring lowly murmuring ever
低声下气地喃喃低语
By the grey woods by the swamp
在灰色树林旁在沼泽旁
Where the toad and the newt encamp
蟾蜍和水鼠扎营的地方
By the dismal tarns and pools
在阴沉沉的池塘边
Where dwell the ghouls
食尸鬼栖身何处
By each spot the most unholy
每个地方都有最邪恶的人
In each nook most melancholy
在每个忧伤的角落
There the traveller meets aghast
在那里旅行者都被吓呆了
Sheeted memories of the past
过去的回忆
Shrouded forms that start and sigh
笼罩在阴影中的人们开始叹息
As they pass the wanderer by
当他们经过流浪者身边
White robed forms of friends long given
身披白色长袍的朋友形影不离
In agony to the earth and heaven
让大地和天堂感到痛苦
For the heart whose woes are legion
一颗痛苦不堪的心
'Tis a peaceful soothing region
这是一片宁静祥和的乐土
For the spirit that walks in shadow
那些徘徊在黑暗中的灵魂
'Tis oh 'tis an eldorado
这是一个好地方
But the traveller travelling through it
但旅行者在其中穿梭
May not dare not openly view it
也许不敢公开地看待它
Never its mysteries are exposed
它的秘密永远不会暴露
To the weak human eye unclosed
睁开脆弱的双眼
So wills its king who hath forbid
所以意志坚定的国王谁禁止
The uplifting of the fringed lid
镶边的盖子打开
And thus the sad soul that here passes
悲伤的灵魂就此消失
Beholds it but through darkened glasses
透过漆黑的眼镜看到了真相
By a route obscure and lonely
在一条偏僻孤寂的道路上
Haunted by ill angels only
只有邪恶的天使作祟
Where an eidolon named night
一个名叫黑夜的精灵
On a black throne reigns upright
在黑暗的王座上高高在上
I have wandered home but newly
我徘徊在回家的路上
From this ultimate dim thule
远离这黑暗的地方
I feel wonderfull
我感觉妙不可言
