It's only morning and you've still to live your day.
In the evening, I will fly you to the moon,
To the top right-hand corner of the ceiling in my room,
Where we'll stay until the sun shines,
Another day to swing on clothe lines.
May I be yawning,
'Tis the morning of my life, 'tis the morning of my life
. In the morning.
In the morning.
In the morning.
[参考译文]
清晨
清晨,月亮下山时,
你会发现这时我最爱
看阳光泛出的彩虹,
在水池上、寒夜结冻的冰上闪耀。
清晨,我生命之晨。
白昼,我依旧要看见你,
你会发现我在海边等待,
用流沙筑垒座座城堡,
那是无人能理解的世界。
清晨,我生命之晨,我生命之晨。
我的生命之晨,
时光流逝而消受漫长,
请你耐心地品味生活。
这只是清晨,你未来的日子还很长。
夜晚,我带你飞往月球,
就在我那房间天花板的右角顶。
在那里我们相处至阳光升起,
第二天还会在秋干上拾趣,
也许我会困倦。
我生命之晨,我生命之晨。
清晨,清晨,清晨。
[语言点解析]
1、In the morning when the moon is at its rest. =In the morning when the moon sets. 清晨,当月亮下山时。
be at(one's) rest:休息、睡眠、安静
例如:The child is never really at rest. 这孩子总是手脚不停。
2、You will find me at the time I love the best, watching rainbows play on sunlight, pools of water, ice from cold night. =At the time of morning I love best, you will find me watching rainbows, …在我最喜爱的清晨,你发现我看着彩虹……。
watch sb. or sth. do:看某人做某事或看某事物发展状态。因在英语中,表示“看、听、感觉”等的知觉动词,经常用动词原形作宾语补足语。该词组便属于这种表达方式。
3、'tis the morning of my life=It is the morning…这是我生命之晨。
'tis=it is仅用于诗与歌词中。
4、In the evening I will fly you to the moon, to the top right-hand corner of the ceiling in my room. =In the evening I will take you to the moon, and it seems as if it is the top right-hand corner of my living room. 在夜晚,我带你飞往月球,就在我那房间天花板的右角顶上。
