歌词
Teachers
老师们
Leonard Cohen
科恩老爷
很久以前我遇见过一个女人，
她的头发已经灰白。
你是心的老师么？
I met a woman long ago
她温柔地否定了。
her hair the black that black can go,
穿越大海时我遇见过一个女孩，
Are you a teacher of the heart?
她有一头金色靓丽的头发。
Soft she answered no.
你是心的老师么？
是的，但不属于你。
I met a girl across the sea,
在我找到某个被遗忘的地方的时候，
her hair the gold that gold can be,
我遇见过一个失去了理智的男人。
Are you a teacher of the heart?
聪明的人会选择跟着我，
Yes, but not for thee.
但他却远离了我。
我走进了一所医院，
I met a man who lost his mind
那儿的人既没有生病，也不是健康的。
in some lost place I had to find,
夜幕降临，护士们都离开了，
follow me the wise man said,
我也无法继续前行了。
but he walked behind.
时间从早上到中午，
到晚上时，一把手术刀，
I walked into a hospital
孤零零地躺在我的银质餐盘旁。
where none was sick and none was well,
一些女孩儿错误地游荡在
when at night the nurses left
手术刀制造的混乱里。
I could not walk at all.
你们是我心的老师么？
我们教授如何让苍老的心毁灭。
Morning came and then came noon,
一天早上，我独自醒来，
dinner time a scalpel blade
医院和护士们都消失不见了。
lay beside my silver spoon.
是我向上帝做了足够的祷告么？
孩子，你只是一根骨头而已。
Some girls wander by mistake
我不停的吃着食物，
into the mess that scalpels make.
不错个每一个机会。
Are you the teachers of my heart?
这些食物花费了多少钱？
We teach old hearts to break.
我们都将充满愤怒地打包带走
我在每个地方发泄我的仇恨，
One morning I woke up alone,
在每一样工作上，在每一个人身上。
the hospital and the nurses gone.
一些人给我希望，
Have I carved enough my Lord?
我希望得到一个拥抱。
Child, you are a bone.
几个女孩儿拥抱了我，
几个男孩儿拥抱了我。
I ate and ate and ate,
我的情感完美了么？
no I did not miss a plate, well
不，请再拥抱我一次。
How much do these suppers cost?
我既英俊又强壮，
We'll take it out in hate.
我知道每一首歌的歌词。
我的歌唱让你感到愉悦了么？
I spent my hatred everyplace,
不，你把歌词唱错了。
on every work on every face,
我写下了谁的地址？
someone gave me wishes
谁记录了我的忏悔？
and I wished for an embrace.
你们是我心的老师么？
我么教授如何让苍老的心沉默。
Several girls embraced me, then
哦，老师们，我完成学习了么？
I was embraced by men,
我不能再继续了。
Is my passion perfect?
他们笑着说，好吧，孩子。
No, do it once again.
你完成学习了么？
你苍老的心沉默了么？
I was handsome I was strong,
你沉默的心毁灭了么？
I knew the words of every song.
Did my singing please you?
No, the words you sang were wrong.
Who is it whom I address,
who takes down what I confess?
Are you the teachers of my heart?
We teach old hearts to rest.
Oh teachers are my lessons done?
I cannot do another one.
They laughed and laughed and said, Well child,
are your lessons done?
are your lessons done?
are your lessons done?
