歌词
His name was Albert, forty-seven years of age
他叫阿尔伯特,四十七岁
He was a miner
他挖掘大地中深埋的矿石
Working every night and day
日以继夜
Pickaxe and oil lamp were his silent friends
只有矿镐和油灯默默陪伴
In these dark mines
在这黑暗的矿井里,
Where the sun never shines
而太阳永远无法照耀
Albert was ambitious
阿尔伯特野心勃勃
Tried to find a secret way
想通过一个隐秘手段
To a land far from here he once heard of in a tale
去传说中遥远的地方
With pickaxe and oil lamp
用镐和油灯
He wanted to break through the space and time
他突破空间和时间
To find this land erstwhile divined
去到向往的地方
Who thought that one man would dare
他胆大妄为
To search in the depths for a door, not knowing where
摸索黑影深处意念中应有的门
With his confidence and hope he carried on
信念和希望是他的后援
To seek this place, his home …
去找到那个地方,他灵魂的故乡
I’ll leave you, so said Albert
我将离你远去,阿尔伯特说道
I’ll give all a man can give
哪怕倾尽所有
To find this world beyond the dark
远离黑暗之处
It’s where my father lives
回到我祖辈生息的地方
With pickaxe and oil lamp
用镐和油灯
He wanted to break through the space and time
他将突破空间时间
And he never returned again
他再也没有回来
Who thought that one man would dare
他胆大妄为
To search in the depths for a door, not knowing where
摸索黑影深处意念中应有的门
With his confidence and hope he carried on
信念和希望是他的后援
To seek this place, his home …
去找到那个地方,他灵魂的故乡
I tried so hard but now I feel weak
我如此努力坚持,但我已经疲倦
My hands are scarred
双手布满伤痕
I feel the warmth fade, my strength is gone
我感到温度退散,力量消失
Can it be that I was wrong?
难道,是我错了吗?
Albert, my beloved son
阿尔伯特,我亲爱的人啊
I know you’ve searched so long my friend
我知道你找寻很久,我的朋友
And now your search has found an end
现在你的坚持有了结果
Come, I’ll take you home
来吧!我带你回家
I searched for so long
我努力了那么久
But now I’ve found the truth
如今我找到了真相
There never was a door I finally see through
这里并没有我想象之中的那扇门
The key was always in my heart to find the hallowed land
寻找那片圣地的关键在内心深处
I’ll leave this world for good now to stay in the potter’s field
我就要在异乡的土地中孤独长眠
Who thought a miner was guided by angels alone?
谁说矿工独自枉为是天使在指引?
I found my place, I found my home …
我到了那地方,我找到了我的家……
