There's joy in my heart: I have joined my lover tonight;
Finally free from the pain of our parting tonight.
As I dance with my lover I pray, oh Lord, in my heart:
May the keys to morning be lost forever tonight.
There's joy in my heart: I have joined my lover tonight;
Finally free from the pain of our parting tonight.
As I dance with my lover I pray, oh Lord, in my heart:
May the keys to morning be lost forever tonight.
'So what?' says the charming flirt to accusing eyes.
'So what?' says the love-struck fool to his bad name.
As we become sure-footed on the rocky path of love
So what if some other donkey is feeble and lame?
I made a journey through the desert of your love
Searching for some hint that you might join me.
I saw in every home I passed along the way
The corpses scattered of those who went before me.
I made a journey through the desert of your love
Searching for some hint that you might join me.
I saw in every home I passed along the way
The corpses scattered of those who went before me.
I made a journey through the desert of your love
Searching for some hint that you might join me.
I saw in every home I passed along the way
The corpses scattered of those who went before me.
我跋涉在爱的沙漠将你寻觅
向每一粒沙子问讯你的踪迹
一路上见多了空屋野骨
那都是先我追寻你的人

八兄,在下面这首诗的翻译上,我和你的歧异比较大。。。(俺咋觉得你看错“秋波”的方向了尼~~:-)

All I've wanted from you is to want you,
To spread your love on the table of love, just so.
Last night I dreamt but now the memory's gone.
I woke up drunk: this alone I know.
Love for you came to my heart, and left again, happy.
Once more it came, unpacked, and left again.
Politely I invited, "Stay for two, three days."
It stayed and now the thought of leaving is gone away.
All I've wanted from you is to want you,
To spread your love on the table of love, just so.
Last night I dreamt but now the memory's gone.
I woke up drunk: this alone I know. ...

How could the soul that holds your image
Ever fade or decay? The crescent moon,
Though waning, thin and pale, begins its voyage
And grows to full perfection very soon.
So badly have you battered my mind that
Men point at me and mock me to my face.
If you're human, then make peace with the rest of us.
If you are an angel, then go: the sky's your place.
I seek a fire to burn away love's pain,
A carpet made of the dust at your door.
I've had enough, and more, of misery.
Let me just be happy in your company.
Now that your lover has shown you her face,
Extinguish yourself at her feet, my heart.
Put out the candle that burns in the sun,
And with you dies this sorrow: moan no more.
Now that your lover has shown you her face,
Extinguish yourself at her feet, my heart.
Put out the candle that burns in the sun,
And with you dies this sorrow: moan no more.
The stock of a man's wisdom is madness:
It's a wise man who loves till he's insane.
Who knows his own heart well on the road of pain
Is to himself a thousand ways a stranger.

Night falls; but me, I can't tell night from day.
My nights are days lit by her face as bright as day.
O night-it's waiting still for word of her that makes you night.
O day-study her face to learn what makes day light.
