Lament 歌詞
(Eva:)
The choice was mine, and mine completely
這是我的抉擇,完全是我的
I could have any prize that I desired
我本能得到我渴望的任何獎勵
I could burn with the splendor of the brightest fire
我本會在最明亮的的火焰中燃燒自己
Or else, or else I could choose time
或者,或者我可以選擇時辰
Remember I was very young then
記得當時我還年輕
And a year was forever and a day
度過的時間很潦草
So what use could fifty, sixty , seventy be?
我以後五六十歲又能怎樣?
I saw the lights, and I was on my way
我已看到那道光,我已經在路上
And how I lived, how they shone
我這一生怎麼過的,我這一生如何閃光
But how soon the lights were gone
但那道光很快就消逝了
(Che:)
The choice was yours and noone elses
這是你的選擇,完全是你的
You can cry for a body in despair
你可以為某人絕望地哭泣
Hang your head because she is no longer there
你垂下了頭因為她已經不在這了
To shine, to dazzle, or betray
她不會再發光,發熱或者背叛
How she lived, how she shone
她的這一生啊,她的光和熱啊
But how soon the lights were gone
但那光芒已經消逝
(Embalmers:)
Eyes, hair, face, image
眼眸,秀發,臉龐,畫面
All must be preserved
這些都要得到保存
Still life displayed forever
靜止的生命應永存
No less than she deserved.
她值得這一切
