Thick As A Brick (Side 2) - Jethro Tull
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
See there a man is born
看啊 一个生命降生人间
And we pronounce him fit for peace
我们宣告他适合和平
There's a load lifted from his shoulders
卸下他肩头重担
With the discovery of his disease
只因发现他身患隐疾
We'll take a child from him
我们将带走他的孩子
Put it to the test
送去经受考验
Teach it to be a wise man
教导他成为智者
And how to fool the rest
再教会他欺瞒世人
We will be geared to the average rather than the exceptional
我们终将沦为平庸 而非卓越
God is an overwhelming responsibility
神明是难以承受的重担
We walked through the maternity ward
我们穿过产科病房
And saw 218 babies wearing nylons
看见218个婴儿裹着尼龙布
It says here that cats are on the upgrade
据说猫族正在进化
Upgrade?
进化？
Hipgrave

Oh Mac
噢 麦克
In the clear white circles of morning wonder
在晨光澄澈的白色光晕里
I take my place with the lord of the hills
我与山峦之主并肩而立
And the blue-eyed soldiers stand slightly discoloured
蓝眼士兵们褪去些许颜色
In neat little rows sporting canvas frills
整齐列队 帆布褶边飘扬
With their jock-straps pinching they slouch to attention
护具紧勒 他们懒散立正
While queuing for sarnies at the office canteen
在食堂排队领取三明治时
Saying: "How's your granny?" and good old Ernie
问候着"祖母可好"的老厄尼
He coughed up a tenner on a premium bond win
将中奖的储蓄券咳出十镑
The legends worded in the ancient tribal hymn
古老部族圣歌中传颂的传说
Lie cradled in the seagull's call
随海鸥鸣叫在浪尖沉浮
And all the promises they made
所有被许下的誓言
Are ground beneath the sadist's fall
皆在暴虐中碾作尘土
The poet and the wise man stand
诗人与智者并肩而立
Behind the gun behind the gun
藏身枪膛之后 藏身枪膛之后
And signal for the crack of dawn
向破晓时分发出信号
Light the sun light the sun
点燃太阳 点燃太阳
Do you believe in the day?
你可曾相信黎明终将到来
Do you believe in the day?
你可曾相信黎明终将到来
The Dawn Creation of the Kings
诸神创世的曙光
Has begun has begun
已然降临 已然降临
Soft Venus lonely maiden brings
孤独的维纳斯女神带来
The ageless one the ageless one
永恒的存在 永恒的存在
Do you believe in the day?
你可曾相信黎明终将到来
Do you believe in the day?
你可曾相信黎明终将到来
The fading hero has returned
迟暮英雄终归来
To the night to the night
归于黑夜 归于黑夜
And fully pregnant with the day
满载白昼的孕育
Wise men endorse the poet's sight
智者见证诗人的远见
Do you believe in the day?
你可曾相信黎明终将到来
Do you believe in the day?
你可曾相信黎明终将到来
Let me tell you the tales of your life
让我诉说你的生命故事
Of your love and the cut of the knife
关于爱与刻骨伤痕
The tireless oppression the wisdom instilled
永不停息的压迫 灌输着所谓智慧
The desire to kill or be killed
要么杀戮 要么被杀的欲望
Well let me sing of the losers who lie
让我为那些躺卧街头的败者歌唱
In the street as the last bus goes by
当末班车从他们身旁驶过
The pavements are empty: the gutters run red
人行道空荡 阴沟流淌鲜红
While the fool toasts his god in the sky
愚人却向天际的神明举杯
So come all ye young men who are building castles
来吧 所有建造城堡的年轻人
Kindly state the time of the year
请告诉我今夕是何年
And join your voices in a hellish chorus
加入这地狱合唱的嘶吼
Mark the precise nature of your fear
看清你恐惧的本来面目
Let me help you to pick up your dead
让我帮你收拾残局
As the sins of the fathers are fed
父辈的罪孽仍在延续
With the blood of the fools and the thoughts of the wise
愚者的鲜血与智者的沉思
And from the pan under your bed
从你床底的潘多拉魔盒
Well let me make you a present of song
且让我赠你一首歌谣
As the wise man breaks wind and is gone
智者放声长啸 转身遁逃
While the fool with the hour-glass is cooking his goose
当愚人守着沙漏 自掘坟墓
And the nursery rhyme winds along
童谣声在风中飘荡
So come all ye young men who are building castles
来吧 所有建造城堡的年轻人
Kindly state the time of the year
请告诉我今夕是何年
And join your voices in the hellish chorus
加入这地狱合唱团
Mark the precise nature of your fear
看清你恐惧的本来面目
See the summer lightning casts its bolts upon you
看那夏日闪电劈向你们
And the hour of judgement draweth near
审判时刻即将来临
Would you be the fool stood in his suit of armour
你会是那个身披铠甲的愚者吗
Or the wiser man who rushes clear?
还是明智抽身的清醒之人
So come on ye childhood heroes
来吧 童年的英雄们
Won't you rise up from the pages
何不从漫画书页中觉醒
Of your comic-books your super crooks
你们这些超级反派
And show us all the way

Well Make your will and testament

Won't you join your local government?
何不投身市政厅的喧嚣

So where the hell was Biggles

When you needed him last Saturday?

And where were all the sportsmen
那些总帮你渡过难关的
Who always pulled you though?

They're all resting down in Cornwall
他们都在康沃尔休养
Writing up their memoirs
忙着写回忆录呢
For a paper-back edition

Of the Boy Scout manual

So you ride yourselves over the fields
你们驰骋在田野上
And you make all your animal deals
与野兽做着交易
And your wise men don't know how it feels
而你们的智者却不懂
To be thick as a brick
愚钝如砖的滋味
