- Simon & Garfunkel The Boxer 歌詞
- Simon & Garfunkel
- I am just a poor boy
我只是個窮光蛋
though my storys seldom told.
我的故事鮮有人說
I have squandered my resistance
我曾花費太多心力
for a pocketful of mumbles,
應付那些無謂的閒言碎語
such are promises.
還有一些承諾
All lies and jest.
一切都是謊言與玩笑
Still , a man hears what he wants to hear
人們總是聽他想要聽的
and disregards the rest.
而忽略了其他
Mmm.......
Mmm.......
When I left my home
當我離開故鄉
and my family.
以及我的家人
I was no more than a boy.
我不再是個孩童
In the company of strangers,
在陌生的人群裡
in the quiet of the railway station
在寂靜的站台上
running scared.
驚惶的奔跑
Laying low,
伏低身子
seeking out the poorer quarters
只為了尋找到一個簡陋的住所
where the ragged people go.
那些衣衫襤褸的人們出入的角落
Looking for the places
尋找只有他們
only they would know.
才知道的地方
Lie-la-lie.....
Lie- la-lie.....
Asking only workmans wages,
只求有工人的薪資
I come looking for a job
我四處尋找工作
but I get no offers.
卻一無所獲
Just a come-on from the whores
只有
on Seventh Avenue.
第七大街的妓女肯收留我
I do declare,
我敢這麼說
there were times
當我
when I was so lonesome
孤獨無依的時候
I took some comfort there.
我從那兒得到不少慰藉
Lie-la-lie.....
Lie-la-lie.....
Lie-la-lie.....
Then Im laying out
後來我開始
my winter clothes
整理冬天的衣物
and wishing I was gone.
盼望自己早已離開
Going home,
回到家去
where the New York City winters
紐約的冬天
arent bleeding me.
也無法讓我血淚斑駁
Leading me
指引我
going home.
回到家去
In the clearing stands a boxer,
空地上站著一位拳擊手
and a fighter by his trade.
和一位職業的戰士
And he carries the reminders
他心裡記著每一次教訓
of evry glove that laid him down
每一個將他擊倒
or cut him till he cried out.
或使他痛苦哀號的手套
In his anger and his shame,
在憤怒與羞愧中
'I am leaving, I am leaving.'
他喊著我快要離開這裡了
But the fighter still remains.
然而，戰士依然在那兒等著他
Mmm............
Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la- lie
Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie........... ...Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie....... .......Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie... ...........Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
