Don't Pick A Fight With A Poet - Madeleine Peyroux (玛黛琳·蓓荷)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
When you're walking on the street
当你漫步街头巷尾
And the people that you meet
遇见形形色色的人
Make you want to start a big fight
让你忍不住想大动干戈
'Cause they talk as if they're so right
只因他们说得理直气壮
There is one thing to remember
但有件事要牢记
In case you haven't heard
若你还未曾听闻
You can kill a mighty emperor
你能杀死至高君王
But you cannot smite a word
却无法抹杀文字的力量
So don't pick a fight with a poet
莫要与诗人争锋相对
Don't raise your hand on a whim
切莫一时冲动举起拳头
Whether it's wrong or it's right
无论对错是非
There's a lesson in life
生活自有其教诲
And to learn it
若要领悟其中
You have to give in
须先学会低头
'Cause the poet knows
因诗人深知
You can't win
你终将败北
When you're twitching at the bar
当你在酒吧躁动不安
No one knows who you are
无人知晓你是谁
And you want to prove them all wrong
你渴望证明他们都错了
You think you are so strong
自以为足够强大
You can try to make them listen
你可以试图让他们倾听
You can try to be the boss
你可以试图掌控一切
But the story teller is the one
但最终决定权
Who calls the toss
永远属于说书人
So don't pick a fight with a poet
莫要与诗人争锋相对
Don't raise your hand on a whim
切莫一时冲动举起拳头
Whether it is wrong or it's right
无论对错是非
There'll be a lesson tonight
今夜都将领悟真谛
And to learn it
若要领悟其中
You'll have to give in
你须先学会屈服
'Cause a poet knows
因诗人深谙
You can't win
你终将败北
Over there in the corner
角落里那个身影
With a cheshire grin
挂着狡黠的笑容
Making rhyme out of broken hearts
将破碎的心拼成韵脚
Cryin' the hymn
吟唱着哀歌
And two tokes from a good time
再抽两口欢愉
A toast away from fist flying
举杯间拳头已扬起
Congregating the world
用纸笔聚集世界
With a paper and pen
书写众生百态
So don't pick a fight with a poet
莫要与诗人争锋相对
Don't raise your hand on a whim
切莫一时冲动举起拳头
Whether it's wrong or right
无论对错是非
There's a lesson in life
生活自有其教诲
And to learn it
若要领悟其中
You'll have to give in
你须先学会屈服
'Cause a poet knows
因诗人深谙
You can't win
你终将败北
