歌词
Well time she did as time she does
好吧，时间她如往常一样
She passed along her way
她沿自己的路走过
And dawn she crept like a frightened girl
拂晓，她像受惊的小女孩般潜行
Out from the night time’s sway
逃离黑夜时间的控制
But in the merry month of May
但在快乐的五月
A solemn fact does lurk
一个严肃的真相潜藏着
For Spring it sprang as Spring it does
谷雨，弹簧如同春天那样跳走
And put the bees to work
催促蜜蜂去工作
工作是他们的使命
And work they must
工作是他们的生活
And work they shall
为了万物生长
For all the things to grow
为了如果他们抛弃她所知的宿命
For if they don’t as time she knows
他们就会在树枝上枯萎
They’d wither on the bough
那样就太可惜了
And what a shame such things would be
没有香甜的酒给你和我
No wondrous wine for you and me
也没有苹果酒，没有蜂蜜酒，没有浓汤
No cider too, nor mead nor soup
失去我们所有的享乐
For us to all make merry
所以，腐烂、发酵、降解
使万物生长
So rot, ferment and decompose
或是，沉浸在无趣的世界
So all the things can grow
然后在树枝上枯萎
Or wallow in a drinkless world
呀，多么灰暗的重担
And wither on the bough
那花蜜与那花粉
Oh what a dusty burden
如同支撑天空的巨人阿特拉斯
That nectar and that pollen
天空就在后脑勺上
Like Atlas with the heavens
要是他们退缩了呢
On the back of his head
要是他们耸肩离去呢？
And what if they should falter
好吧，时间她仍然走过历史
And shrug their little shoulders?
Well time she’d pass all the same
