Down With The Sun

Insomnium - Down with the sun 随落日而息



JoyceEvans译





O darkness, if in thy arms I could rest

For a while and with these earthly eyes

See thy dim smile

黑暗,如果在你的臂弯里我能休憩片刻

在这尘世众生的注视下

端详你黯淡的微笑





Maid of twilight, lass of duskfall

薄暮之仆 黄昏之佣

Hang the moon on the sky's arch 

天际弯曲处悬一轮明月

Soothe the weight of a darkling day

平复暗夜的沉重

Croon me in the slumber:

轻歌柔唱 唤我入眠



"Rock here in the birch's lap

在白桦枝干摇曳

Swing in the manor of wind

于风中轻轻摆动

Lay down your weary head

垂下你倦怠的头颅

Let the blue stars darken"

让这蓝色的星空朦胧



O silence, if in thy cradle I could sway

岑寂 若在你的襁褓里我能

Like a child, heart the amending song,

像孩童一样摇晃

铭记修缮的歌曲

The sighing of the shades

荫庇的叹息



Maid of twilight, lass of duskfall

薄暮之仆 黄昏之佣

Serve thy goblet to me

将你的杯爵赐予我

Let me drink to the last drop

让我饮尽最后一滴酒

The sweet opiate of the dreams:

那甜美迷醉的梦境



"Rock here in the birch's lap

在白桦枝干摇曳

Swing in the manor of wind

于风中轻轻摆动

Lay down your weary head

垂下你倦怠的头颅

Let the blue stars darken"

让这蓝色的星空朦胧



Ours is the silence,

我们的梦境即为寂静

The echo old ageless night

永夜的回响

A gleam in the blackest of streams,

在黑暗急流中闪耀的微光

One fleeing moment

白驹过隙的片刻



For vain is all the toil and trouble,

因这徒劳之功是所有的艰难险阻

Vain is all the heartbreak

而这徒然令人心碎

In the end I'll find my solace

我终会找到我的慰籍

In an earthen cradle

在大地的襁褓中

So good night

轻念晚安
