The Traveling Kind - Emmylou Harris

The Traveling Kind - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)/Rodney Crowell

We don't all die young to save our spark
我们不会用逝去的年华拯救
From the ravages of time
我们经历时光蹉跎褪去的激情火花
But the first and last to leave their mark
但在生命的最初和最后会刻下它的烙印
Someday become the traveling kind
终有一天我们都是漂泊的旅人
In the wind are names of poets past
风中都是诗人游走而残留的名
Some were friends of yours and mine
或许其中有些是你我的朋友
And to those unsung we lift our glass
我们高举酒杯 敬那些未曾被唱响的歌
May their songs become the traveling kind
愿他们的歌表迹如漂泊旅人般的我们
We were born to brave this tilted world
我们天生就注定勇于面对这不公的世界
With our hearts laid on the line
我们的心也没有丝毫的不安分
Be it way-crossed boy or red dirt girl
不会像是出格的男孩或是红尘土女孩
The song becomes the traveling kind
这首歌成了我们漂泊旅人的心迹
There are mountains worth their weight in gold
总有太多的崇山峻岭等待攀登
Mere mortals dare not climb
总有太多的凡夫俗子不敢攀爬
Come ye tipsy sainted sinners both
就一醉方休吧 不论你是圣人还是罪人
And claim them for the traveling kind
宣扬他们只不过是漂泊的旅人
When the music slowly starts to fade
当散场的乐声开始消散
Into the light's last soft decline
融进最后一丝残留的光里 慢慢消退
Let us lie down in that evening shade
就让我们沉睡在这黑夜里
And rest among the traveling kind
愿所有漂泊的旅人得以安息
And the song goes on for the traveling kind
此曲萦绕只为那漂泊的旅人
