歌词
[HERMES, spoken]
你从哪里听到这段旋律的?
Where'd you get that melody?
我也不知道
它们自然而然地从我的双唇中流出
[ORPHEUS]
好像我早就熟知它们了一样
I don’t know
It came to me
你早就知道它了
As if I'd known it all along
这是一首古老的歌谣
[HERMES]
一首古老的情歌
(spoken)
虽然,我上次听到它们已经是很久以前的事情了
You have
你以前听过这段旋律吗?
It's an old song
当然
(sung)
请告诉我
A song of love from long ago
记得我以前跟你讲的神话故事吗?
Long-time since I heard it though
关于谁的?
哈迪斯和珀耳塞福涅
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
记得很久以前
You’ve heard that melody before?
他们的爱让世界正常运转
啊,我记起来了
[HERMES, spoken]
但是这是很久以前的事情了
Sure
你来说一遍这个故事吧
阴影的国王
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
幽灵的国王
Tell me more
哈迪斯是地下的君主
但他爱上了一位
[HERMES, spoken]
在母亲的原野上漫步的美人
Remember the tale I told you once about the Gods?
他爱上了
在阳光下采摘鲜花的珀耳塞福涅
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
他把她带回地下做他的王后
Which ones?
但地下世界没有阳光
照耀在人们肩头……
[HERMES, spoken]
继续唱
Hades and Persephone
那位夫人也爱他,他们共同统治地下的王国
Remember how it used to be
但她的缺席让地上的花朵无法生长
Their love that made the world go round?
所以哈迪斯同意
一年中的一半,她会在地下世界陪伴他
[ORPHEUS, spoken]
但另一半,她能继续在阳光下漫步
Yeah, I remember now
太阳也会给予世界两倍的温度
But that was long ago
这就是季节的由来
由此有了
[HERMES, spoken]
播种和收获的轮回
Tell it again though
人的生老病死
和鸟儿飞翔的轨道
[ORPHEUS]
唱吧
King of shadows
King of shades
冥土和人间
Hades was king of the Underworld
But he fell in love with a beautiful lady
世界和谐地运转
Who walked up above in her mother's green field
He fell in love with Persephone
神明唱着属于他们的情歌
Who was gathering flowers in the light of the sun
And he took her home to become his queen
Where the sun never shone
整个世界都为他们合声
On anyone
但这都是过去了
[HERMES, spoken]
我们现在要等在去冥府的铁轨边上
Go on...
[ORPHEUS]
The lady loved him and the kingdom they shared
But without her above, not one flower would grow
So King Hades agreed that for half of each year
She would stay with him there in his world down below
But the other half, she could walk in the sun
And the sun, in turn, burned twice as bright
Which is where the seasons come from
And with them, the cycle
Of the seed and the sickle
And the lives of the people
And the birds in their flight
[HERMES]
Singing...
[ORPHEUS]
La la la la la la la...
[HERMES, spoken]
Down below and up above
[ORPHEUS]
La la la la la la la...
[HERMES, spoken]
In harmony and rhythm
[ORPHEUS]
La la la la la la la...
[HERMES, spoken]
The Gods sang his song of love
[ORPHEUS]
La la la la la la la...
[HERMES]
(spoken)
And the world sang it with them
(sung)
But that was long ago
Before we were on this road
