歌词
Out in the West Texas town of El Paso
曾在德州西边的埃尔帕索镇
I fell in love with a Mexican girl.
我爱上了一位墨西哥女郎
Night-time would find me in Rosa's cantina;
从此罗萨小酒馆的夜晚便多了我的身影
Music would play and Felina would whirl.
酒馆响起了歌声,芙莲娜翩翩起舞
Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina,
她有一双黑夜般的眼睛
Wicked and evil while casting a spell.
妩媚挑逗,令人着魔
My love was deep for this Mexican maiden;
我深深爱着这位墨西哥女郎
I was in love but in vain, I could tell.
虽深爱却不过也是徒劳
One night a wild young cowboy came in,
一晚酒馆来了个年轻牛仔
Wild as the West Texas wind.
他如西德州的狂风般狂野
Dashing and daring,
潇洒且又英勇
A drink he was sharing
他举起酒杯
With wicked Felina,
邀请妩媚的芙莲娜共饮
The girl that I loved.
那个我爱着的女郎
So in anger I
一怒之下
Challenged his right for the love of this maiden.
我上前发起了决斗,劝其知难而退
Down went his hand for the gun that he wore.
他却伸手拔出了枪
My challenge was answered in less than a heart-beat;
一声枪响 决斗有了结果
The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor.
那个潇洒的年轻人倒在了地上
Just for a moment I stood there in silence,
我愣了一会
Shocked by the FOUL EVIL deed I had done.
对自己邪恶的行为感到震惊
Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there;
一瞬间我脑海中思绪万千
I had but one chance and that was to run.
我已走投无路只有远走高飞
Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran,
冲出酒馆后门
Out where the horses were tied.
我看着那里栓着的马
I caught a good one.
牵了一匹好的
It looked like it could run.
看起来它跑起来应该没问题
Up on its back
我骑上马
And away I did ride,
尽全力骑着
Just as fast as I
飞奔着离开
Could from the West Texas town of El Paso
这个埃尔帕索镇
Out to the bad-lands of New Mexico.
去到新墨西哥那不毛之地
Back in El Paso my life would be worthless.
我知道若继续留在埃尔帕索,我的人生将毫无意义
Everything's gone in life; nothing is left.
现如今对往事的回忆消逝殆尽
It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden
自上次见那位女郎 已经过去了很多年
My love is stronger than my fear of death.
我对她的爱 却日益强烈 早已盖过了自己对死亡的恐惧
I saddled up and away I did go,
骑上马我又开始出发
Riding alone in the dark.
独自在黑夜里飞奔
Maybe tomorrow
也许明天
A bullet may find me.
一颗子弹就将结束我的生命
Tonight nothing's worse than this
今夜我心中的痛楚
Pain in my heart.
无可比拟
And at last here I
终于我回到了这里
Am on the hill overlooking El Paso;
在山上俯瞰着这埃尔帕索镇
I can see Rosa's cantina below.
我看到罗萨酒馆仍在那里
My love is strong and it pushes me onward.
我强烈的爱推我向前
Down off the hill to Felina I go.
我走下山去见芙莲娜
Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys;
右手边不远处我看见几个骑着马的牛仔
Off to my left ride a dozen or more.
左手边也有六七个
Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me.
无论如何我都必须逃脱
I have to make it to Rosa's back door.
我必须去到酒馆的后门
Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel
然而可怕的事情发生了
A deep burning pain in my side.
突然我感到一阵灼烧般的疼痛从身上传来
Though I am trying
我用尽全力
To stay in the saddle,
才没摔下马背
I'm getting weary,
可渐渐地我精疲力尽了
Unable to ride.
摔下了马
But my love for
但我对芙莲娜的爱
Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen,
如此强烈 我又站了起来
Though I am weary I can't stop to rest.
虽已精疲力尽但我不能放弃
I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle.
突然看见枪口一团白烟
I feel the bullet go deep in my chest.
我感到有子弹深入我的胸膛
From out of nowhere Felina has found me,
芙莲娜突然出现找到了我
Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side.
跪在我的身边 轻拥我入怀 吻着我的脸颊
Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for,
只为这一吻,我死亦无憾
One little kiss and Felina, good-bye.
永别了,我深爱的芙莲娜
