- Sufjan Stevens city of roses 歌詞
- Sufjan Stevens
- A break in the clouds is a break in my day
雲層中透出縫隙此刻讓我得以放鬆一天的疲憊身心
Face the sun of my salvation
面對著照耀救贖之光的太陽
As Hathaway Jones would have made it his own fate
就像海瑟薇·瓊斯定下了自己的命數【Ivan Hathaway Jones，在1937年意外身亡，死亡方式剛好與他本人發表的一個故事《 The Year of the Big Snow》相似】
Fly by the wings of your creation
用你創造出的翅膀飛行
你頭頂上方有一首詩
On the top of your head , there is a poem
我腦中的想法唯有上帝知道
The thought in my head, oh God only knows
一切都會讓你失望至極
As everything else will disappoint you
我曾經也年輕無畏可如今年長的自己心已老去
I used to be young and bold, but now I'm afraid, I'm getting so old
我跟隨心中的喜悅來到玫瑰之城【Portland有玫瑰之城的稱號】
I follow delight to the City of Roses
這個鮮為人知的事實我無法應對
我是鎮壓的擁護者
It's a little-known fact that I can't cope
我在東海岸見慣了鎮壓【Sufjan在東海岸生活過幾年，這是對他隱忍的感情的一段比喻】
I'm the champion of repression
我將殞命於我野心的雙翼之下【引用了希臘神話中伊卡洛斯和他的父親代達羅斯的故事】
I've had it enough with the east coast
那個我離開的城市苦痛之城
I'll die by the wings of my ambition
那個我愛過的地方希望的城
一切都會讓你失望透頂
The city I left, the city of throes
我曾經也年輕無畏可如今年長的自己心已老去
The one that I loved, the city of hope
我跟隨心中的喜悅來到玫瑰之城
As everything else will disappoint you
雲層中透出縫隙此刻讓我得以放鬆一天的疲憊身心
I used to be young and bold, but now I'm of age, I' m getting so old
I follow delight to the City of Roses
A break in the clouds is a break in my day
