《吉普赛人》
鲍勃·迪伦 周公度 译
去看那吉普赛人,
他落脚在一家大旅馆内。
当他看到我,他微笑着,
说,哦,好,好。
他的房间黑暗、拥挤,
电灯低垂,灯光黯淡。
你好?他对我说,
我也如此向他问询。
我来到旅馆大厅,
打了一个短暂的电话。
那儿有一个漂亮的跳舞的女孩,
她大声说着话,
“去看吉普赛人。
他可以在你身后消失,
驱逐掉你的恐惧,
带你穿过镜子。
他曾在拉斯维加斯表演,
现在他将在这儿演出。”
旅馆外面灯光闪烁
河流如泪水的薄彩,
我远远地观看着它们
音乐响起在我的耳边。
我回去看那吉普人,
节目即将开始。
吉普赛人的房门大开
但是那吉普赛人已经离去,
还有那个漂亮的跳舞的女孩,
从此难觅她的芳踪。
我看到太阳已经升起在
明尼苏达州的小镇上空。
Went To See The Gypsy
Went to see the gypsy,
Stayin&`& in a big hotel.
He smiled when he saw me coming,
And he said, Well, well, well.
His room was dark and crowded,
Lights were low and dim.
How are you? he said to me,
I said it back to him.
I went down to the lobby
To make a small call out.
A pretty dancing girl was there,
And she began to shout,
Go on back to see the gypsy.
He can move you from the rear,
Drive you from your fear,
Bring you through the mirror.
He did it in Las Vegas,
And he can do it here.
Outside the lights were shining
On the river of tears,
I watched them from the distance
With music in my ears.
I went back to see the gypsy,
It was nearly early dawn.
The gypsy&`&s door was open wide
But the gypsy was gone,
And that pretty dancing girl,
She could not be found.
So I watched that sun come rising
From that little Minnesota town.
