- Iron & Wine Passing Afternoon 歌詞
- Iron & Wine
- There are times that walk from you
時光走遠
like some passing afternoon
如逝去午後般
Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon
夏日溫暖她蜜月的窗沿
And she chose a yard to burn
她曾選擇焚燒落葉的後院
but the ground remembers her
卻銘記著她的模樣
Wooden spoons, her children stir her Bougainvillea blooms
孩子們用木勺撩撥她盛開的杜鵑花
There are things that drift away
如煙一般消褪的
like our endless, numbered days
是那無盡晝夜
Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made
秋日吹落她疊好的棉被
And shes chosen to believe
她漸漸相信
in the hymns her mother sings
母親吟唱的那些讚美詩
Sunday pulls its children from their piles of fallen leaves
禮拜天在滿地落葉中牽起她的孩子
There are sailing ships that pass
船隻駛過
all our bodies in the grass
流散在草地的軀體
Springtime calls her children until she lets them go at last
春日喚走她不捨放手的孩子
And shes chosen where to be
她最終選擇了那裡
though shes lost her wedding ring
而遺失的婚戒
Somewhere near her misplaced jar of Bougainvillea seeds
就安放在杜鵑花籽瓶的附近
There are things we cant recall
遺忘的記憶
Blind as night that finds us all
被夜的黑暗所吞噬
Winter tucks her children in her fragile china dolls
冬日藏起她脆弱如瓷的孩子
But my hands remember hers
我雙手記得她那
rolling around the shaded ferns
撫摸如柔軟嫩枝的陰影
Naked arms, her secrets still like songs Id never learned
她赤裸的雙臂和懷中秘密是陌生的歌吟
There are names across the sea
海面升起的呼喚
only now I do believe
使我相信
Sometimes, with the window closed, shell sit and think of me
她合窗靜坐偶爾也會記起
But shell mend his tattered clothes
但她縫紉的是他襤褸的衣衫
and theyll kissas if they know
他們親吻著如同已看穿
A baby sleeps in all our bones, so scared to be alone
沉睡在我們骨中的那個嬰兒，如此害怕不安
