歌词:

In my memory, I will always see

记忆中,我经常看到

The town that I have loved so

well

深爱的那个小镇

Where our school played ball by the gas yard

wall

在那里,我们学校的孩子在盖肆亚德墙边踢足球

And they laughed through the smoke and the

smell

透过烟尘和汗水欢笑

Going home in the rain, running up the dark

lane

雨中飞奔回家,沿着黑暗小道跑啊跑

Past the jail, and down behind the

Fountain

途经监狱,跑到喷泉后面

Those were happy days in so many, many

ways

这些是多幸福的日子啊

In the town I loved so well

在我深爱的小镇里

In the

early morning the shirt factory horn

衬衣厂的喇叭在清晨吹响

Called women from

Creggan, the moor, and the bog

召来了克雷根,穆尔和博格的妇女

While the men on the dole

played a mother's role

而靠失业救济金生活的男人们则扮演起了母亲的角色

Fed the children and then

walked the dog

喂饱了孩子接着又遛了狗

And when times got tough there was just about

enough

世道虽然艰难,但知足常乐

And they saw it through without

complaining

大伙都明白,一句也没有抱怨

For deep inside was a burning

pride

因为内心深处,充满着浓烈的自豪

In the town I loved so well

在我深爱的小镇里

There

was music there in the Derry air

在德里的上空飘荡着音乐

Like a language that we all

could understand

就像一种大家都听得懂的语言

I remember the day that I earned my first

pay

我仍记得第一次领到薪水的那一天

When I played in a small pick-up

band

那时我在一个临时拼凑的小乐队里演奏

There I spent my youth, and to tell you the

truth

在那我度过了我的大好青春,跟你说句实话

I was sad to leave it all behind

me

逝去的时光让我黯然失色

For I learned about life, and I found a

wife

因为我明白了世事而且还娶了个妻子

In the town I loved so well

在我深爱的小镇里

But

when I returned, how my eyes have burned

但当我回来时,我的双眼却被深深灼伤了

To see how a

town could be brought to it's knees

我看到我的小镇遍体鳞伤

By the armoured cars and

the bombed-out bars

因了那些装甲车和被炸毁的酒吧

And the gas that hangs on to every

breeze

树身笼罩着毒气

Now the army's installed by that old gas yard

wall

盖斯亚德墙边如今驻扎着军队

And the damned barbed wire gets higher and

higher

而令人憎恶的铁丝网越修越高

With their tanks and their guns, oh my god, what

have they done

用那些坦克和枪支,我的上帝,他们都干些什么

To the town I loved so

well

在我深爱的小镇上

Now the music's gone but they carry

on

如今虽然音乐不再,而它们依然在我的耳边回响

For their spirits been bruised, never

broken

因为他们的灵魂受了伤,但永远不会折服

They will not forget but their hearts are

set

他们永远不会忘记,他们的决心已定

On tomorrow and peace once again

明天和平一定会到来

For

what's done is done and what's won is won

因为事情已经发生,一切已经无法挽回

And what's

lost is lost and gone for ever

就让过去的永远成为过去

I can only pray for a bright,

brand new day

我只能祈祷一个灿烂的,崭新的明天

In the town I love so well

在我最深爱的小镇
