Diamonds and Rust
Well , I'll be damned , here comes your ghose again. 我的老天,你的魅影又再度出現. But that's not unusual , it's just that the moon is full. 但這並非不尋常,只因今夜月圓. And you happened to call. 你又恰巧來電. And here I sit , hand on the telephone. 我靜坐在此,手握話筒. Hearing a voice I'd known , a couple of light years ago. 聽著我曾熟悉的聲音,彷彿已是幾個光年以前. Hearing straight for a fall. 一場註定的悲劇.
As I remember your eyes were bluer than robin's eggs. 依稀記得你那雙藍過知更鳥蛋的眼睛. My poetry was lousy you said , where are you calling from ? 你說我的詩糟透了,你從那兒打這通電話? A booth in the midwest. 在中西部一處無名的電話亭. Ten(Twenty) years ago I bought you some cufflinks. 十(二十)年前我送過你的袖釦. You brought my something , we both know what memories can bring. 你也送了我些什麼,我們都知道回憶的力量. They bring diamonds and rust. 令人珍惜如鑽石的永恆又容易變質如陳銹斑斑.
(Well you burst on the scene already a legend. (當你在我面前驟現(已然是一則傳說. The unwashed phenomenon , the original vagabond. 一種未提防的現象,一個真正的流浪者. You strayed into my arms. 你飄飄盪盪進入我的臂膀. And there you stayed , temporaroly lost at sea. 在那兒,你的停留一如在海上之短暫迷航. The madona was yours for free. Yes the girl onthe half shell could keep you unharmed.) 有著聖母的眷顧以及愛神的保護.)
Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling. All around and snow in your hair. 現在我看到當年的你佇立在黃葉紛飛中.白雪覆髮. Now you're smiling out the window of. That crummy hotel over washigton squaare. 你笑著在那遠眺華盛頓廣場的小旅館窗前. Our breath comes out white clouds mingles & hangs in the air. 我們的鼻息如白雲般文織凝結在冷空氣中. Speaking strickly for me , we both could've died then and there. 對我來說,那時我們差點幾乎要陣亡.
Now you're telling my you're not nostalgic. 如今你對我說你不愛感傷念舊. Then give me another word for it. 那麼請你另找一個字眼來代替. You who're so good with words and at keeping things vague. 你向來善於文辭與曖昧不明. Cause I need some of that vagueness now. It's all come back to clearly. 現在的我極需那種曖昧不明.因為過去的一切顯得太清晰且刺眼.
Yes I loved you dearly. ( I once loved you dearly.) 是的,我曾摯愛過你. And if you're offering my diamonds and rust. 而如果你現在奉上鑽石與鐵銹. I've already paid. 我會告訴你,我已付出過代價了.
