- Pete Seeger Banks of Marble 歌詞
- Pete Seeger
- I've traveled around this country
我曾遊歷遍這個國家
From shore to shining shore
從西海岸到東海岸
It really made me wonder
一路所見所聞
The things I heard and saw
令我困惑不已
I saw the weary farmer
我看到疲倦的農夫
Are plowing sod and loam
在土地上勞作
I heard the auction hammer
我還聽到拍賣錘的敲擊聲
Just knocking down his home
正奪去他的小屋
But the banks are made of marble
但銀行座座金碧輝煌
With a guard at every door
每扇門都有門衛把守
And the vaults are stuffed with silver
那些保險箱裡塞滿金銀
That the farmer sweated for
是那農夫汗水的結晶
I've seen the seamen standing
我曾看到水手
Idly by the shore
頹廢地站在海岸邊
And I heard there bosses saying
我還聽見他們的老闆說
Got no work for you no more
你已經被開除了
But the banks are made of marble
但銀行座座金碧輝煌
With a guard at every door
每扇門都有門衛把守
And the vaults are stuffed with silver
那些保險箱裡塞滿金銀
That the seaman sweated for
是那水手汗水的結晶
I've seen the weary miner
我曾看到疲倦的礦工
Scrubbing coal dust from his back
正擦洗背上的煤屑
And I heard his children crying
還聽到他的孩子們在哭泣
Got no coal to heat the shack
哭訴沒有燃煤來溫暖他們的棚屋
But the banks are made of marble
但銀行座座金碧輝煌
With a guard at every door
每扇門都有門衛把守
And the vaults are stuffed with silver
那些保險箱裡塞滿金銀
That the miner sweated for
是那礦工汗水的結晶
I've seen my brothers working
我還在這片偉大的土地上
Throughout this mighty land
見過無數辛勤勞動的兄弟們
l've prayed we'd get together
我祈禱我們能夠團結起來
And together make a stand
一起來進行對抗
Then we might own those banks of marble
這樣我們就能奪回那些金碧輝煌的銀行
With a guard at every door
哪怕每扇門都有門衛把守
And we would share those vaults of silver
之後我們就能共享
That we have sweated for
那些我們為之累死累活的財富
