歌词
想要一览伦敦街道 最为引人瞩目的荣光
The streets of London, to be beheld in the very height of their glory
当属阴沉昏暗的冬日之夜
should be seen on a dark, dull murky winter's night
那层厚重的迷雾遮盖了整个城市
When the heavy, lazy mist which hangs over every object
使得那些煤气灯越发夺目
makes the gas lamps look brighter
周围的商店在灯光的照耀下光鲜亮丽
and the brilliantly lighted shops more splendid
与置身其中的黑暗形成鲜明对比
from the contrast they present to the darkness around
伦敦的夜晚非常安静
London's a very quiet place at night
飘渺朦胧--这词儿用得对吗？
very ethereal - is that the right word?
我们都有各自钟爱的地方
We all have our own favourite spots
遍布于整个城市的各个地方
they're usually sort of dotted around London at different positions
你不可能连续八九小时一直开车
You can't obviously drive a cab for eight or nine hours continuously
肯定得找个安静地方歇歇
And you have to find a little quiet spot
在巴特西教堂路上有个小教堂 圣玛丽教堂
There's a small church called St Mary's Church, in Battersea Church Road
就坐落在一条河边
and it lies just on the bend of a river
这里聚集着鸬鹚、海鸥和燕鸥
You can see cormorants, seagulls, terns, feeding
它们在这儿觅食栖息
and just sitting there themselves as well
你可以看到飞向伦敦机场的飞机
You can see the large planes going over on their way to London Airport
却又没有半点噪音
but there's no noise at all
如同在乡间一般
and it's just like a little part of the countryside
我喜欢这种幽静
I love the tranquility of it
