So Far From The Clyde

?-［Get Lucky］

Mark Knopfler?

People and their Ships...

詞：

They had a last supper

The day of the beaching

She's a dead ship sailing

skeleton crew

能干

The galley is empty

廚下

The stove pots are cooling

爐罐

With what's left of a stew

殘肴

Her time is approaching

The captain moves over

The hangman steps in…?

劊子

To do what he's paid for

With the wind and the tide

She goes proud ahead steaming

高傲而前

And he drives her hard into the shore

駕駛

So far from the Clyde.

Together we'd ride.

We did ride.

As if to a wave

層浪

From her bows to her rudder

船頭到船舵

Bravely she rises

升帆

To meet with the land

邂逅

Under their feet

腳下

They all feel her keel shudder

抖動

A shallow sea washes their hands

淺海

Later the captain

船長

Shakes hands with the hangman

揮手

And climbs slowly down

爬下

To the oily wet ground

油濕

Goes bowed to the car

小車兒來了

That has come here to take him

他離開

Through the graveyard and back to the town

他回鎮(zhèn)。

So far from the Clyde.

Together we'd ride.

?We did ride.

They pull out her cables

電纜

And hack off her hatches

艙蓋

Too poor to be wasteful

With pity or time

They swarm on her carcass

殘骸

With torches and axes

火把和斧頭

Like a whale on the bloody shoreline

如鯨

Stripped of her pillars

剝離

Her stays and her stanchions

甲板支柱

When there's only her bones

龍骨

On the wet, poisoned land

濕、毒、土

Steel ropes will drag her

拖走

With winches and engines

轆轤和引擎

'til there's only a stain on the sand

余沙、污

So far from the Clyde.

Together we'd ride.?

We did ride.?

So far from the Clyde.

Together we'd ride.?

We did ride.
