- Leonard Cohen Alexandra Leaving 歌詞
- Leonard Cohen
- Suddenly the night has grown colder.
忽然，寒冷隨夜色更濃了些
The god of love preparing to depart.
愛情也即將啟程離去
Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder,
Alexandra擁抱著她的愛人
他們早已放下心中的芥蒂
They slip between the sentries of the heart.
稍稍調情，即作歡愉
Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure ,
聖光照耀，他們忘情的纏綿
They gain the light, they formlessly entwine;
似乎比你想的更為熱烈
And radiant beyond your widest measure
他們沉淪在美酒與歡笑聲中
They fall among the voices and the wine.
這不是兒戲，你自欺而已
Its not a trick, your senses all deceiving,
一場空夢，黎明終將殆盡
A fitful dream, the morning will exhaust -
向你離去的Alexandra道別
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
你和她的過往情事也於心中了卻
Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
即使她與你同眠於月夜
Even though she sleeps upon your satin;
即使她將你吻醒於清晨
Even though she wakes you with a kiss.
且不要說這是南柯一夢
Do not say the moment was imagined;
更不要為此而悵然若失
Do not stoop to strategies like this.
如同你早已做好籌謀
As someone long prepared for this to happen,
堅定的走向窗邊，將甘苦一飲而盡
Go firmly to the window. Drink it in.
曲調精妙，紅顏展眉
Exquisite music. Alexandra laughing.
你曾經的諾言終將履行
Your firm commitments tangible again.
你有幸與她共度良宵
And you who had the honor of her evening,
趁此機會你也重歸清醒
And by the honor had your own restored -
向離去的Alexandra告別
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving;
她心無旁騖，堅定地離去了
Alexandra leaving with her lord.
即使她與你同眠於月夜
即使她將你吻醒於清晨
Even though she sleeps upon your satin;
且不要說這是南柯一夢
Even though she wakes you with a kiss.
更不要因此而悵然若失
Do not say the moment was imagined;
如同重逢故友
Do not stoop to strategies like this.
坦然面對過往的失足
但不要選擇沒有始終的悖言
As someone long prepared for the occasion;
那不過是懦夫的辯解
In full command of every plan you wrecked -
你可能為這段情而無措
Do not choose a cowards explanation
萬念成灰，進而蒙蔽了雙眼
that hides behind the cause and the effect.
向離去的Alexandra告別
And you who were bewildered by a meaning;
你和她的過往情事也於心中了卻
Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed -
向離去的Alexandra告別
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
終究一段情事了然於心中
Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
