歌詞英譯之八：一千年以后

［譯文］

一千年以后
In A Thousand Years

心跳亂了節(jié)奏
My heart has lost its rhythm,

夢也不自由
and my dreams no longer carefree.

愛時的絕對承諾不說
The promise withheld when still in love

沉到一千年以后
has sunk into a thousand years later.

放任無奈淹沒塵埃
Dust gives way to floods of regrets

我在廢墟之中守著你走來
when I keep watch for you in ruins.

我的淚光承載不了
My glistening tears can't bear the weight

所有一切你要的愛
of all the love you thirst for.

因為在一千年以后
For in a thousand years

世界早已沒有我
the world will have lost me,

 

無法深情挽著你的手
no way to hold your hand in fondness,

淺吻著你額頭
and dip a light kiss on your forehead.

別等到一千年以后
Don't wait till a thousand years later.

所有人都遺忘了我
when I pass into oblivion.

那時紅色黃昏的沙漠
Then over a red desert at dusk

能有誰
is there anybody

解開剎那千年的寂寞
who would ever undo a loneliness

剎那千年的寂寞
over a time from that instant to a thousand years later?
