原歌词
[00:00.000] 作曲 : Damaris Woods
[00:06.541] What need you be in competent sense
[00:08.551] But fumble in a greasy till
[00:11.095] And add the half-pence to the pence
[00:13.903] And prayer to shivering prayer until
[00:16.670] You've dried the marrow from the bone
[00:18.929] For men were born to pray and save
[00:21.195] Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
[00:23.953] 'Tis with O'Leary, in the grave
[00:27.215] Yet they were of a different kind
[00:29.473] In aims that stilled your childish play
[00:32.234] Have gone about the warlike wind
[00:34.742] What little time they had to pray
[00:36.753] For whom the hangman's rope was spun
[00:39.310] For what, God help us, could they save?
[00:42.072] Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
[00:44.331] 'Tis with O'Leary, in the grave
[00:47.086] Was it for this, the wild geese spread
[00:49.672] Their gray ring upon every tide?
[00:51.929] For this, that all the blood was shed?
[00:54.706] For this, Edward FitzGerald died
[00:57.466] And Robert Emmet and Wolfe Tone
[00:59.732] Or that delirium of the brave
[01:01.991] Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
[01:04.250] 'Tis with O'Leary, in the grave
[01:07.555] Yet would be told thy years again
[01:10.064] And call those exiles as they were
[01:12.575] In all their loneliness and pain
[01:15.377] You'd cry some woman's yellow hair
[01:17.887] Had maddened every woman's son
[01:19.893] They weighed so lightly what they gave
[01:22.402] But let them be, they're dead and gone
[01:25.424] They're with O'Leary, in the grave
[01:30.445] She is calling, calling calling
[01:32.704] In the wind and o'er the tide
[01:34.962] We are children, hear our voices
[01:37.274] Call us ever to her side
[01:39.532] She is calling, calling, calling
[01:41.791] In the storm and in the gaol
[01:44.069] We are children, hear our voices
[01:47.595] As we homeward safely sail
[01:53.195] With the engine need is throbbing
[01:55.498] And the wind upon the stern
[01:59.516] Little rightly of the distance
[02:01.849] That divides us now from Erin
[02:05.361] Go, we hear our voices calling
[02:07.619] Sweeping past us on the west
[02:09.880] Calling home to her dear children
[02:12.194] She once nourished on her breast
[02:15.453] She is calling, calling calling
[02:17.761] In the wind and o'er the tide
[02:20.035] We are children, hear our voices
[02:22.575] Call us ever to her side
[02:24.583] She is calling, calling, calling
[02:26.879] In the storm and in the gaol
[02:29.141] We are children, hear our voices
[02:32.493] As we homeward safely sail
[02:38.575] Oh, ye waters bear us homeward
[02:40.581] And ye winds your task will fill
[02:44.862] Till our Irish eyes will feast on Irish veils and Irish hills
[02:50.380] Till we tread our Irish cities
[02:52.638] See the glory and the shame
[02:54.897] And our eyes, like skies of Erin
[02:57.154] Through our smiles shed tears of pain
[03:00.722] She is calling, calling calling
[03:02.981] In the wind and o'er the tide
[03:05.237] We are children, hear our voices
[03:07.495] Call us ever to her side
[03:09.816] She is calling, calling, calling
[03:12.073] In the storm and in the gaol
[03:14.330] We are children, hear our voices
[03:17.594] As we homeward safely sail
[03:47.773] Glorious is the land we're leaving
[03:49.798] And its pride shall go to nears
[03:54.063] And the land that calls us homeward
[03:56.070] But can share with us her tears
[03:59.581] Yet our heart will call in vain
[04:01.841] Needless doth the wealth-man crave
[04:04.111] Turn it home to share her soul
[04:06.371] Where she weeps is I will rave
[04:09.910] She is calling, calling calling
[04:11.917] In the wind and o'er the tide
[04:14.478] We are children, hear our voices
[04:16.735] Call us ever to her side
[04:18.993] She is calling, calling, calling
[04:21.250] In the storm and in the gaol
[04:23.509] We are children, hear our voices
[04:28.028] As we homeward safely sail
歌词翻译
[00:06.541] “清醒”的你,还有何欲何求?
[00:08.551] 只会在油腻的收银机里摸索营谋,
[00:11.095] 把半便士凑成一便士,
[00:13.903] 在颤抖的祈祷中虚耗春秋,
[00:16.670] 直到骨髓干枯,心如荒丘。
[00:18.929] “既然”世人降生只为攒钱与祈求。
[00:21.195] 浪漫的爱尔兰已经逝去,
[00:23.953] 它随奥利里长眠在墓穴深处。
[00:27.215] 然而他们本是另一种灵魂,
[00:29.473] 其志向曾惊醒你儿时的童真。
[00:32.234] 他们如狂风卷入战火的烟尘,
[00:34.742] 哪有闲暇在祈祷中打转沉沦?
[00:36.753] 因为绞索已为他们织好。
[00:39.310] 上帝啊,他们还能积攒何物?
[00:42.072] 浪漫的爱尔兰已经逝去,
[00:44.331] 它随奥利里长眠在墓穴深处。
[00:47.086] 难道就是为了这,那些大雁群起,
[00:49.672] 在每一波潮水中投下灰色的印记?
[00:51.929] 难道为了这,才撒尽热血?
[00:54.706] 就为这,爱德华·菲茨杰拉德丧命,
[00:57.466] 还有罗伯特·埃米特和沃尔夫·托恩,
[00:59.732] 或那勇者的狂热梦境?
[01:01.991] 浪漫的爱尔兰已经逝去,
[01:04.250] 它随奥利里长眠在墓穴深处。
[01:07.555] 若能让岁月倒流,
[01:10.064] 唤回那些流亡英雄——
[01:12.575] 带着他们全部的孤寂与苦痛,
[01:15.377] 你定会哭诉某位女人的金发,
[01:17.887] 让这些母亲的孩子陷入了癫狂之中,
[01:19.893] 他们对自己的付出何等轻视,
[01:22.402] 就让他们安息吧,他们已逝去,
[01:25.424] 与奥利里一同长眠在墓穴深处。
[01:30.445] 她在呼唤,呼唤,呼唤,
[01:32.704] 在风中,在潮水上,
[01:34.962] 我们是她的孩子,听我们的声音——
[01:37.274] 永远呼唤我们回她的身旁。
[01:39.532] 她在呼唤,呼唤,呼唤,
[01:41.791] 在风暴里,在囚牢间,
[01:44.069] 我们是她的孩子,听我们的声音——
[01:47.595] 当我们平安驶回家乡。
[01:53.195] 引擎在轰鸣中跳动,
[01:55.498] 船尾的风在嘶吼,
[01:59.516] 那分割我们和爱尔兰的距离,
[02:01.849] 此时已微不足道。
[02:05.361] 走吧,听那声音在呼唤,
[02:07.619] 向西掠过我们身旁,
[02:09.880] 她在唤回亲爱的孩子们,
[02:12.194] 那曾由她哺育的怀抱依旧。
[02:15.453] 她在呼唤,呼唤,呼唤,
[02:17.761] 在风中,在潮水上,
[02:20.035] 我们是她的孩子,听我们的声音——
[02:22.575] 永远呼唤我们回她的身旁。
[02:24.583] 她在呼唤,呼唤,呼唤,
[02:26.879] 在风暴里,在囚牢间,
[02:29.141] 我们是她的孩子,听我们的声音——
[02:32.493] 当我们平安驶回家乡。
[02:38.575] 哦,万水载我们归乡,
[02:40.581] 长风助我们扬帆。
[02:44.862] 直到爱尔兰的双眼,饱览那爱尔兰的薄雾与群山。
[02:50.380] 直到我们踏入爱尔兰的城市,
[02:52.638] 目睹她的荣耀与屈辱,
[02:54.897] 我们的双眼,如爱尔兰的天空,
[02:57.154] 带着笑意,却泪湿斑斓。
[03:00.722] 她在呼唤,呼唤,呼唤,
[03:02.981] 在风中,在潮水上,
[03:05.237] 我们是她的孩子,听我们的声音——
[03:07.495] 永远呼唤我们回她的身旁。
[03:09.816] 她在呼唤,呼唤,呼唤
[03:12.073] 在风暴里,在囚牢间,
[03:14.330] 我们是她的孩子,听我们的声音——
[03:17.594] 当我们平安驶回家乡。
[03:47.773] 离别的土地虽有万丈光芒,
[03:49.798] 其骄傲终将随岁月枯黄。
[03:54.063] 唯有那唤我们归乡的热土,
[03:56.070] 能与我们共担泪水的忧伤。
[03:59.581] 纵使余心徒劳地呼唤,
[04:01.841] 纵使富人贪婪地守望。
[04:04.111] 且归家吧,去与她的灵魂共处,
[04:06.371] 在她哭泣的地方,我愿为之癫狂。
[04:09.910] 她在呼唤,呼唤,呼唤,
[04:11.917] 在风中,在潮水上,
[04:14.478] 我们是她的孩子,听我们的声音——
[04:16.735] 永远呼唤我们回她的身旁。
[04:18.993] 她在呼唤,呼唤,呼唤,
[04:21.250] 在风暴里,在囚牢间,
[04:23.509] 我们是她的孩子,听我们的声音——
[04:28.028] 当我们平安驶回家乡。
