歌词
Like a bird on the wire,like a drunk in a midnight choir
像电线上的鸟儿，像午夜唱诗班中的醉汉。
I have tried in my way to be free.
我用我的方式追寻自由。
Like a worm on a hook,like a knight from some old fashioned book
像鱼钩上的虫饵，像过时小说里的骑士。
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
吾之绶带皆为汝珍存。
If I, if I have been unkind,I hope that you can just let it go by.
如果我，如果我曾为恶，愿你不要介怀。
If I, if I have been untrue,I hope you know it was never to you.
如果我，如果我曾不诚，愿你知晓我并非有意欺瞒。
Like a baby, still born,like a beast with his horn.
如胎死腹中的婴孩，如人面兽心之徒。
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
我早已伤透了每一个向我伸出手的人
But I swear by this song and by all that I have done wrong,
谨以这首歌对我所犯下的错起誓，
I will make it all up to thee.
因汝吾以此身赎罪。
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
我曾看见一个拄着木拐的乞丐，
he said to me, "You must not ask for so much."
他对我说：“你不要苛求太多。”
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
又一个倚着昏暗房门的女郎，
she cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"
她向我泣诉：“嘿，为何不要求更多？”
Oh like a bird on the wire,
哦，若电线上的鸟儿，
like a drunk in a midnight choir.
若午夜唱诗班中的醉汉。
I have tried in my way to be free.
我用我的方式追寻自由。
