O'Reilly Luck (Album Version) - Buddy Jewell
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Granddaddy used to sit me on his knee
祖父总爱让我坐在他膝上
And tell me how it was in the old country
讲述故土往昔的沧桑
Famine and floods and crops that failed
饥荒肆虐 洪水滔天 庄稼绝收
I'd listen for hours as he told his tale
我数小时聆听 他诉说往事悠悠
He said "There must have been a curse on the family name"
他说"家族姓氏必是受了诅咒"
But he swore he'd be the one to break that chain
但发誓要亲手斩断这命运锁链
With money he saved from the sweat of his brow
用额头汗水换来的积蓄
He'd get 'em out of there someday somehow
终有一日要带全家逃离这深渊
Well he never was much of a gambin' man
他向来不是个赌徒
But he dreamed of passage to the Promised Land
却梦想着通往应许之地的船票
Bet it all on a better life in America
将全部希望押在美国的新生活上
He said "We'll change our fate and this danged O'Reilly Luck"
他说"我们要改写命运 打破这该死的奥莱利诅咒"
I can only imagine the look on his face
只能想象他当时的表情
Tickets in hand as they counted the days
攥着船票数着启程的日子
Eleven passports no turnin' back
十一本护照 再无回头路
Decidin' what they should and shouldn't pack
反复斟酌该带走的行囊
But the baby caught the fever just days before
可启程前夕婴孩突发高烧
And the doctor hung a sheet on their front door
医生将白布悬于家门之上
For two long weeks they were quarantined
整整两周全家被迫隔离
Stranded with nothin' but his shattered dream
困守残梦 希望尽碎
Well he never was much of a gambin' man
他向来不是个赌徒
But he dreamed of passage to the Promised Land
却梦想着通往应许之地的船票
Bet it all on a better life in America
将全部希望押在美国的新生活上
He said "We'll change our fate and this danged O'Reilly Luck"
他说"我们要改写命运 打破这该死的奥莱利诅咒"
Granddaddy told this story 'til he passed away
祖父临终前仍念念不忘这个故事
How the people all cheered from the dock that day
码头上人群欢呼的那天
While he shook his fist with a tear in his eye
他眼含热泪紧握拳头
At the beautiful ship of the White Star Line
望着白星公司那艘华丽的船
And he cursed his fate and his danged O'Reilly Luck
咒骂着命运和该死的奥莱利厄运
As the mighty Titanic sailed into the sun
当巨轮泰坦尼克号驶向落日
Well he never was much of a gambin' man
他向来不是个赌徒
But he found his way to the Promised Land
却最终找到了应许之地
Bet it all on a better life in America
将全部希望押在美国的新生活上
He said "We'll change our fate and this danged O'Reilly Luck
他说"我们要扭转这该死的奥莱利厄运"
Danged O'Relly Luck "
该死的奥莱利厄运
