伦敦的街头 Streets Of London-Sinead O’connor

你看见打烊的市场里的老男人吗/他拿出了报纸和破烂的鞋子/在他眼里你见不到丝毫的自尊/他在用自己的方式休憩/昨天的报纸说的是昨天的新闻。

你看见在伦敦街头漫步的老女人吗/灰垢嵌在她的头发里,她衣衫褴褛/她没有时间说话/她只是还有走路的权利/她带着两只购物袋回家。

在所有十一时一刻的晚上/咖啡店里有同样的老人坐着,沉浸在自己的世界/他们越过茶杯的边沿看着世界/喝完一杯茶要一小时/然后他独自徘徊在家里。

你看见外面那个老男人吗/他也是一个已消失的水手/记忆和他身上那件带绶带的衣服一块儿都褪色了。

你怎样向我诉说你的孤独/诉说着太阳不再照耀/让我牵着你的手,领着你穿过伦敦街头/我将向你展现一些改变你心境的风光。

这首名为《Streets of London》(伦敦街头),写的是伦敦街头的老人,以及歌手对老人的悲悯情怀,苍凉的画面、忧郁的结他声,安抚着无数落寞的心。不知道几十年后我们不再年轻,那时回想起来会是何种心情,是否像歌里唱得那样....当繁华落尽,等待我们的将会是什么...雨带着一点怜悯在哭泣,为不止一个被忘却的英雄和不在乎他们的世界....

Streets Of London

Have you seen the old man in the closed down market
Kicking up the paper with his worn out shoes
In his eyes you see no pride
And held loosely by his side,
yesterday"s paper telling yesterday"s news

How can you tell me you"re lonely
And say, for you, that the sun don"t shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I"ll show you something to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old gal who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
She"s no time for talkin, she just keeps right on walkin"
Carryin her home in two carrier bags

How Can you tell me....

In the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven
Same old man sitting there on his own
Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup
Each tea lasts an hour and he goes home alone

How can you tell me....

Have you seen the old man outside the seaman"s mission
Memory fading like the ribbons that he wears
In our winter city, the rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero in a world that doesn"t care

How can you tell me you"re lonely
And say, for you, that the sun don"t shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I"ll show you something to make you change your mind
I"ll show you something to make you change your mind
