歌词
Books are burning
书籍在燃烧
In the main square, and I saw there
在那主广场上，我看见
The fire eating the text
火焰吞噬了一页页文字
Books are burning
书籍被焚毁
In the still air
在静止的空气里
And you know where they burn books
要知道，在他们焚烧书籍的地方
People are next
下一个轮到的就是人了
I believe the printed word should be forgiven
我相信，纸上印刷的文字应被宽恕
Doesn't matter what it said
无论它讲述了什么
Wisdom hotline from the dead back to the living
把智慧从僵死之物传递给生者
Key to the larder for your heart and head
它是打开你心灵和思想储藏室的钥匙
Books are burning
书籍在燃烧
In our own town,
在我们的小镇上
watch us turn 'round
看着我们转过身去
And cast our glances elsewhere
并把目光投向别处
Books are burning
书籍被焚毁
In the playground
在那操场上
Smell of burnt book is not unlike human hair
焚书的气味和头发烧焦的气味不太一样
I believe the printed word is more than sacred
我相信印刷出来的文字不仅仅是神圣的
Beyond the gauge of good or bad
更不如说，它超越了好或坏本身
The human right to let your soul fly free and naked
让灵魂自由而赤裸地飞翔，是你的权利
Above the violence of the fearful and sad
超越了恐惧和悲伤的暴力
The church of matches
火柴做的教堂
Anoints in ignorance with gasoline
无知地用汽油膏人
The church of matches
火柴做的教堂
Grows fat by breathing in the smoke of dreams
呼吸着梦想的烟雾长胖
It's quite obscene
这太污秽了
Books are burning
书籍在燃烧
More each day now,
数量与日俱增
and I pray now
我正在祈祷
You boys will tire of these games
你们这些家伙会厌倦了这种游戏
Books are burning
书籍在燃烧
I hope somehow,
我希望
this will allow
这会使
A phoenix up from the flames
凤凰自火焰中涅槃而升
