So Far From The Clyde

歌词
They had a last supper
他们共进了最后的晚餐
The day of the beaching
漫步海滩的那天
She's a dead ship sailing
她是一条因航行死去的船
skeleton crew
精干的船员
The galley is empty
厨房已经空无一物
The stove pots are cooling
炉罐正在降温
With what's left of a stew
还剩了一碗残肴
她的去期将至
Her time is approaching
船长轻轻挪开
The captain moves over
刽子手就这样进来
The hangman steps in
来作他被要求的
To do what he's paid for
在这海风中,在这潮水里
With the wind and the tide
她冒着蒸汽高傲地向前走
She goes proud ahead steaming
他驾驶着她艰难地驶向海岸
And he drives her hard into the shore
远离克莱德
我们将一起乘行
So far from the Clyde
我们的确曾一起乘行
Together we'd ride
就像一层浪
We did ride
从她的船头到船舵
她勇敢地升起船帆
As if to a wave
去邂逅那片天地
From her bows to her rudder
在他们脚下
Bravely she rises
他们感受到来自她龙骨的战栗
To meet with the land
浅海洗刷着他们的手
Under their feet
随后船长
They all feel her keel shudder
挥手示意刽子手
A shallow sea washes their hands
然后缓缓地爬下
到这油湿的地上
Later the captain
弯身走入车厢
Shakes hands with the hangman
那辆早已等待着带他离开的车
And climbs slowly down
穿过墓地回到小镇
To the oily wet ground
远离克莱德
Goes bowed to the car
我们将一起乘行
That has come here to take him
我们的确曾一起乘行
Through the graveyard and back to the town
他们扯掉她的电缆
砍下她的舱口盖
So far from the Clyde
没有多余去浪费
Together we'd ride
浪费遗憾或时间
We did ride
他们蜂拥至她的残骸
带上火把和斧头
They pull out her cables
像一只徘徊在血腥海岸线的鲸
And hack off her hatches
剥离了她的台柱、
Too poor to be wasteful
她的甲板和支柱
With pity or time
到只剩骨架之时
They swarm on her carcass
在这潮湿,鸩毒的土地上
With torches and axes
钢绳将要将其拖动
Like a whale on the bloody shoreline
用辘轳和引擎
直到这里只剩下沙土、污迹
Stripped of her pillars
远离克莱德
Her stays and her stanchions
我们将一起乘行
When there's only her bones
我们的确曾一起乘行
On the wet, poisoned land
远离克莱德
Steel ropes will drag her
我们将一起乘行
With winches and engines
我们的确曾一起乘行
'til there's only a stain on the sand
So far from the Clyde
Together we'd ride
We did ride
So far from the Clyde
Together we'd ride
We did ride
