伦敦街道钢琴谱-Ralph McTell

2019-12-24 320

Streets Of London伦敦街道 – Ralph McTell拉尔斐迈克戴尔 ，英国街头游唱诗人之英式民谣佳作。经典民歌“Streets of London”是英国歌手Ralph McTell 1969年的作品。McTell从雷德贝利（Leadbelly）、伍迪葛士瑞（Woody Guthrie）、劳勃强森（Robert Johnson）等民歌与蓝调先驱人物的作品中得到启发。在英国与欧洲流浪了几年之后，他返回伦敦，在苏活区的一些民歌俱乐部卖唱。

1969年，他在第二张个人专辑《Spiral Staircase》里面发表了自己谱写的“Streets of London”，不过当时并未受到重视，后来，他在1974年底重新录制这首歌，结果夺下英国排行亚军，就此成名。

Have you seen the old man

In the closed down market

Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes

In his eyes you see no pride

Hands held loosely at his side

Yesterday's paper, telling yesterday's news

你可曾见过那么老的一个人

在市场打烊后

拖着他破烂了的鞋子踢着被丢弃的报纸

在他的眼睛里你看不到自豪的神采

双手散漫的垂在身旁

过期的报纸上，写着过期的故事

So how can you tell me you're lonely

And say for you that the sun don't shine

Let me take you by the hand

And lead you through the streets of London

I'll show you something

To make you change your mind

你怎么能告诉我你是孤独的呢

说太阳都不肯为你散发光亮

让我牵着你的手

带着你走过伦敦的街头吧

让你看看那儿发生的事情

它们会把你来改变

Have you seen the old girl

Who walks the streets of London

Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags

She's no time for talking

She just keeps right on walking

Carrying her home in two carrier bags

你可见过那年华不再的女子

姗姗走过伦敦的街头

披着她灰脏的头发和碎破的衣服

她没有空儿停下来聊点什么

就只是一劲儿向前走着

带着两只旅行包，那是她的全部家当

So how can you tell me you're lonely

And say for you that the sun don't shine

Let me take you by the hand

And lead you through the streets of London

I'll show you something

To make you change your mind

所以你怎么能告诉我你是孤独的呢

说连太阳都不肯把你照耀

让我牵着你的手

带着你走过伦敦的街头吧

让你看看那儿发生的事情

它们会把你来改变

In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven

The same old man sitting there on his own

Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup

Each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone

十一点一刻，古旧的咖啡夜店里

还是那同一个老人独自坐在那儿

越过他茶杯的边缘看着这个世界

每一杯他都会喝一个小时，然后拖着孤独的脚步回家去

So how can you tell me that you're lonely

Don't say for you that the sun don't shine

Let me take you by the hand

And lead you through the streets of London

I'll show you something

To make you change your mind

所以你怎么能告诉我你是孤独的呢

别说连太阳都不肯把你照耀

让我牵着你的手

带着你走过伦敦的街头吧

让你看看那儿发生的事情

它们会把你来改变

Have you seen the old man

Outside the seaman's mission

Memory fading with the minor ribands that he wears

In our winter city the rain cries a little pity

For one more forgotten hero

And a world which doesn't care

你见过那些老去的男人们吗

他们结束了海上的漂泊使命

记忆和他佩戴的缎带一起慢慢褪色

在这个城市的冬季，细雨呜咽出辛酸的惋惜

为着被遗忘的英雄

和这毫不为此牵挂的世界

So how can you tell me you're lonely

And say for you that the sun don't shine

Let me take you by the hand

And lead you through the streets of London

I'll show you something

To make you change your mind

所以你怎么能告诉我你是孤独的呢

说是连太阳都不会来把你照耀

让我牵着你的手

带着你走过伦敦的街头吧

看看那儿发生的事情

它们会把你来改变
