歌词
It is a chilly god, a god of shades,
它应是一位冷漠的霍尔德尔
Rises to the glass from his black fathoms.
自乩板挣脱于他那黑暗深渊
At the window, those unborn, those undone
在窗前,那些未来的,那些毁灭的
Assemble with the frail paleness of moths,
集聚于垂危的蜉蝣
An envious phosphorescence in their wings.
翅膀之上有着令人艳羡的磷光
Vermillions, bronzes, colors of the sun
朱红,赤褐,是太阳的颜色
In the coal fire will not wholly console them.
纵然是熊熊燃烧的炭火也无法将它们控制
Imagine their deep hunger, deep as the dark
想象他们那如同黑暗般深切的饥饿
For the blood-heat that would ruddlr or reclaim.
对于常温血液的流淌或回逆
The glass mouth sucks blooh-heat from my forefinger.
着釉的老鼠吮吸着我食指的血液
The old god dribbles, in return, his words.
作为回报,古老的神明会对他的话进行润色
The old god, too, write aureate poetry
这位古老的神明撰写着镀金的诗篇
In tarnished modes, maundering among the wastes,
在败坏的风尚里徘徊于荒芜
Fair chronicler of every foul declension.
每一位堕落的编年史家
Age, and ages of prose, have uncoiled
时代,这散文的时代,已经展开
His talking whirlwind, abated his excessive temper
他喋喋不休以缓解他极度的怒火
When words, like locusts, drummed the darkening air
当言语如同蝗虫鼓动着阴沉的天空
And left the cobs to rattle, bitten clean.
将榛子咬得干干净净,咔咔作响
Skies once wearing a blue, divine hauteur
天空披着着忧郁,傲慢非凡
Ravel above us, mistily descend,
拉维尔在我们之上,误入歧途
Thickening with motes, to a marriage with the mire.
时光尘埃逐渐模糊,深陷婚姻的泥潭
He hymns the rotten queen with saffron hair
他歌颂拥着拥有金黄长发的堕落女王
Who has saltier aphrodisiacs
谁有那更为粗俗的春药
Than virgins' tears. That bawdy queen of death,
比之玛利亚的泪水。那个可恶的死神
Her wormy couriers aer at his bones.
她腐朽的信使寄生在他的尸骨中
Still he hymns juice of her, hot nectarine.
然,他仍赞美她那鲜亮桃驳李的汁液
I see him, horny-skinned and tough, construe
我看到了他,面容沧桑却坚韧不拔,迁思回虑
What flinty pebbles and ploughable upturns
多么坚硬的卵石,多么可畏的起落
As ponderable tokens of her love.
作为她那可估量的爱的象征
He, godly, doddering, spells
他虔诚而脆弱地拼写
No succinct Gabriel from the letters here
没有加百列出自这里简明的信件
But floridly, his amorous nostalgias.
但是,他情思依旧
