What It Is (Radio Edit)

it's what it is
真相早已不言而喻
what it is now…
真相早已不言而喻
the drinking dens are spilling out
酒吧内人们把酒言欢
there's staggering in the square
广场上人们步履蹒跚
there's lads and lasses falling about
红男绿女在纵情声色
and a crackling in the air
空中巨响如风驰电掣

down around the dungeon doors
地牢门边都不绝于耳
the shelters and the queues
避难所前攘攘熙熙
everybody's looking for
人人都在东寻西觅
somebody's arms to fall into
望有臂膀挡风遮雨
that's what it is
真相早已不言而喻
it's what it is now
就在眼前一览无遗
there's frost on the graves and the monuments
城外陵墓已滴水成冰
but the taverns are warm in town
城内旅店却铄石流金
people curse the government
店内人们欲揭竿而起
and shovel hot food down
先将食物埋藏于地底
lights are out in the city hall
市政厅前华灯已初下
the castle and the keep
城堡却还巍然如铠甲
the moon shines down upon it all
万物之上是皓月千里
the legless and asleep
酣然入梦你烂醉如泥
and it's cold on the tollgate
城关之上是冰天雪地
with the wagons creeping through
鞍前马后他策马飞舆
cold on the tollgate
城关之上是冰天雪地
god knows what i could do with you
望洋兴叹我无能为力
that's what it is
真相早已不言而喻
it's what it is now
就在眼前一览无遗
the garrison sleeps in the citadel
塞上士兵枕戈待旦
with the ghosts and the ancient stones
幽灵古石近旁作伴
high on the parapet
独立于城墙之上
a scottish piper stands alone
苏格兰笛手眺望远方
and high on the wind
大风起兮云飞扬
the highland drums begin to roll
听大地之鼓奏响乐章
and something from the past just comes
过往之事重来如卷土
and stares into my soul
长驱直入到灵魂深处
and it's cold on the tollgate
城关之上滴水成冰
and the drums beat their tatoo
大鼓响起吹角连营
cold on the tollgate
城关之上冰天雪地
god knows what i could do with you
望洋兴叹无能为力
that's what it is
真相早已不言而喻
it's what it is now
就在眼前一览无遗
what it is
真相早已不言而喻
it's what it is now
就在眼前一览无遗
there's a chink of light
远处有光芒天色微明
there's a burning wick
近旁有烛火摇曳不定
there's a lantern in the tower
塔上有华灯映照晨星
wee willie winkie with a candlestick
小威莉温基秉烛夜游
still writing songs in the wee wee hours
还在写歌可日月如流
on charlotte street i take
我在大街小巷中行走
a walking stick for my hotel
旅店的手杖紧握在手
the ghost of dirty dick
幽灵鬼影龌龊且卑鄙
is still in search of little nell
将小小奈儿苦苦寻觅
that's what it is
真相早已不言而喻
it's what it is now
就在眼前一览无遗
