Field Notes

歌词

• Field Notes - Owl City
• Composed by：Adam Young
• We were heading on home deasil in me
• 我们走在回家的路上 而我步履匆匆
• Down an old gravel road way out in the country
• 沿着乡间一条古老的碎石路前行
• Tuckered out after working the fields all-day
• 在田野里辛勤劳作一天之后 我已筋疲力尽
• When all of a sudden off like a shot
• 突然之间 犹如子弹一般飞奔离去
• That dog took off running barkin' his head off
• 那条狗一边疯狂吠叫 一边跑向远处
• Wherever he went he went like there was hell to pay
• 无论他走到哪里 他都是一副要付出沉重代价的样子
• So lickedy-split I crashed through the fields
• 我以飞快的速度穿越田野
• Chasin after that hound and I was hot on his heels
• 我一直紧追不舍 追逐着那条猎犬
• When we both went over the edge of a deep ravine
• 当我们一起越过深山峡谷的边缘
• As I crawled up the bank cold and soaked to the bone
• 在我爬上河岸以后 我已浑身湿透 寒冷刺骨
• A glint caught my eye from the mud where it shown
• 我的眼睛瞥见泥泞里闪烁着的光芒
• Something was buried there alongside the stream
• 溪流旁边似乎埋藏着什么东西
• Now the middle of a field is a pretty odd place to find
• 田野中间是一个非常奇怪的地方
• Some kind of trunk or chest or a crate
• 竟然可以在这里发现盒子还有板条箱之类的东西
• But buried under the earth I saw a corner exposed
• 但这箱子深埋在地下 我看见箱子的一角暴露无遗
• No there wasn't a map or a note or a key
• 这里没有藏宝图 笔记或者是钥匙之类的东西
• It was clearly forgotten just waiting for me
• 显然它早已被人遗忘 静静等待着我
• Like I was supposed to find it there right under my nose
• 好像我应该发现那个箱子就在我的眼皮底下
• It had laid there for years deep in the dirt
• 这箱子已在地下深处深埋多年
• So I dug it out and wiped my hands on my shirt
• 所以我把它挖出来 在我的衬衫上擦了擦手
• I pried up the lid and excitedly peered inside
• 我撬开盖子 兴奋地朝里面望去
• And what I saw was a sight to behold
• 令人惊叹的景象映入眼帘
• 'Cause that tattered old trunk was crammed full of gold
• 因为这破旧不堪的箱子里装满黄金
• My eyes bugged out it was enough to make a grown man cry
• 我目瞪口呆 这足以让一位成年人喜极而泣
• Big golden bricks with a shimmery sheen
• 硕大的金砖闪耀着璀璨的光芒
• They were a staggering sight to a poor boy like me
• 对于像我这样的穷人来说 眼前的一切令人惊愕
• And right then and there I knew what I had to do
• 就在那时 我知道我必须做些什么
• So with a smile I sold what little I had
• 所以我面带微笑 卖掉我仅有的一点家产
• I gave my pots and my pans to my mom and my dad
• 我将我的厨具留给我的妈妈和爸爸
• And then I bought that field
• 然后我买下那块土地
• 'Cause it was my dream come true
• 因为这一切让我梦想成真
• And then full of joy I said goodbye to my shack
• 我满怀喜悦 告别我简陋的小屋
• It wasn't much of a home so I never looked back
• 这里算不上是温馨的家 所以我毫无眷恋
• And I never questioned the choice I happily made
• 我从未质疑我开开心心地做出的选择
• I said I need that field whatever it takes
• 我说道 我需要那块土地 我甘愿为此不惜一切代价
• You might call it foolish but I call it faith
• 你可以说这是愚蠢的行径 但我称之为信仰
• Trusting in God so gladly you can hardly wait
• 全心全意地信仰上帝 你已迫不及待
• And that's how I learned how a rich fella accounts
• 我就像这样学会了财富的价值
• It's treasure in heaven not under the ground
• 宝藏在天堂之中 并没有埋在地下
• 'Cause betting the farm is well worth the risk
• 因为破釜沉舟是值得为之承担风险
• To carefully keep such a beautiful gift that's yours forever
• 小心翼翼地保护一份永远属于你的美好礼物
• It's a pretty good deal
• 这是一场获益颇丰的交易
• There's a couple of things more precious than gold
• 这世上有几样东西比黄金还珍贵
• One is your heart and the other's your soul
• 一个是你的真心 另一个是你的灵魂
• And you've got something you need that nobody can steal
• 你已拥有你不可或缺的东西 而且没有人能从你手中偷走
• It's a fable you see and the moral is this
• 你知道这就是一则寓言 其中的寓意是这样的
• Your heart's with your treasure wherever it is
• 无论人生宝藏在哪里 你的心与宝藏同在
• And trust me when you dig a treasure will be revealed
• 请相信我 当你四处寻觅时 你将会找到宝藏
• And you never know what could be buried in the middle of a field
• 你永远不知道田野之中会埋藏着什么
