等待奇跡到來 

寶貝，我一直在等待 

我一直在等待，沒日沒夜 

我沒有留意時(shí)間 

我把我的半生都等掉了 

有過許多邀請 

我知道有些來自于你 

但那時(shí)我在等待 

等待奇跡，等待奇跡到來 

我知道你真的愛我 

但是你看，我的手被束住了 

我知道一定傷害到你了 

一定傷害到了你的自尊 

拿著你的軍號(hào)和鼓站在我的窗下 

而我卻在上面等待 

等待奇跡，等待奇跡到來 

我不相信你會(huì)喜歡 

在這兒你是不會(huì)喜歡的 

這兒沒有娛樂表演 

而有著苛刻的鑒賞力 

音樂大師說那是莫扎特 

但它聽起來像是泡泡糖 

當(dāng)你在等待 

等待奇跡，等待奇跡到來 

等待奇跡 

除此之外什么也做不了 

我從沒這般快樂 

自從二次世界大戰(zhàn)結(jié)束以來 

什么也做不了 

當(dāng)你知道你已被等待占滿 

什么也做不了 

當(dāng)你在乞討一片面包屑 

什么也做不了 

當(dāng)你得繼續(xù)等待 

等待奇跡到來 

我夢到你了，寶貝 

就是前兩天的夜里 

你大部分是裸著的 

但有一些是明亮的 

時(shí)間的砂粒正從你的手指間滑落 

而你在等待 

等待奇跡，等待奇跡到來 

寶貝，我們結(jié)婚吧 

我們孤獨(dú)了太久 

就讓我們一起孤獨(dú) 

來看看我們是否真的有那么堅(jiān)韌 

讓我們做件瘋狂的事 

絕對錯(cuò)誤的事 

當(dāng)我們在等待 

等待奇跡，等待奇跡到來 

什么也做不了 

當(dāng)你知道你已被等待占滿 

什么也做不了 

當(dāng)你在乞討一片面包屑 

什么也做不了 

當(dāng)你得繼續(xù)等待 

等待奇跡到來 

當(dāng)你倒落在公路上 

你正躺在雨中 

他們問你究竟在干什么 

當(dāng)然你會(huì)說你不能抱怨 

如果非要從你這壓榨出一些信息 

在你什么也不想說的時(shí)候： 

你就說你在那兒等待 

等待奇跡，等待奇跡到來

Waiting For The Miracle 

Baby, I've been waiting 

I've been waiting night and day 

I didn't see the time 

I waited half my life away 

There were lots of invitations 

And I know you sent me some 

But I was waiting 

for the miracle, for the miracle to come 

I know you really loved me 

But, you see, my hands were tied 

I know it must have hurt you 

It must have hurt your pride 

to have to stand beneath my window 

with your bugle and your drum 

And me I'm up there waiting 

for the miracle, for the miracle to come 

Ah I don't believe you'd like it 

You wouldn't like it here 

There ain't no entertainment 

And the judgements are severe 

The Maestro says it's Mozart 

But it sounds like bubble gum

when you're waiting 

for the miracle, for the miracle to come 

Waiting for the miracle 

There's nothing left to do 

I haven't been this happy 

since the end of World War II 

Nothing left to do 

when you know that you've been taken 

Nothing left to do 

when you're begging for a crumb 

Nothing left to do 

when you've got to go on waiting 

waiting for the miracle to come 

I dreamed about you, baby 

It was just the other night 

Most of you was naked 

Ah but some of you was light 

The sands of time were falling 

from your fingers and your thumb 

And you were waiting 

for the miracle, for the miracle to come 

Ah baby, let's get married 

we've been alone too long 

Let's be alone together 

Let's see if we're that strong 

Yeah let's do something crazy, 

something absolutely wrong 

while we're waiting 

for the miracle, for the miracle to come 

Nothing left to do 

when you know that you've been taken 

Nothing left to do 

when you're begging for a crumb 

Nothing left to do 

when you've got to go on waiting, 

waiting for the miracle to come 

When you've fallen on the highway 

and you're lying in the rain, 

and they ask you how you're doing 

of course you'll say you can't complain 

If you're squeezed for information, 

that's when you've got to play it dumb: 

You just say you're out there waiting 

for the miracle, for the miracle to come 

和我共舞，直到愛的盡頭

    在火熱的小提琴伴奏下，和我共舞

　　和我跳舞，在舞步中穿越恐懼，積聚平安

　　把我像橄欖枝一樣舉起，讓我成為回家的鴿子

　　和我共舞，直到愛的盡頭

　　當(dāng)旁人遠(yuǎn)離，讓我獨(dú)自欣賞你的美麗

　　讓我感受你的顫動(dòng)，就像在巴比倫

　　慢慢向我展示所謂的“底線”是什么

　　現(xiàn)在讓我們步入婚禮的殿堂，不停的跳舞

　　充滿渴望，纏繞溫情，與我共舞

　　我們沉浸在愛情中，超越了肉體

　　和我共舞，直到愛的盡頭

　　和我共舞，為了祈求生命的孩子

　　讓我們跳舞，我們的吻將永生

　　支起帳篷，雖然它已經(jīng)破舊不堪

　　和我共舞，直到愛的盡頭

　　在火熱的小提琴伴奏下，和我共舞

　　和我跳舞，在舞步中穿越穿恐懼，積聚平安

　　撫摸我，現(xiàn)在就撫摸我

　　和我共舞，直到愛的盡頭。

 Dance Me To The End Of Love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin 

Dance me through the panic 'tilI'm gathered safely in 

Liftme like an olive branch and be my homeward dove 

Dance me to the end of love 

Dance me to the end of love 

Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone 

Letme feel you moving like they do in Babylon 

Showme slowly what I only know the limits of 

Dance me to the end of love 

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on 

Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long 

We'reboth of us beneath our love, we're both of us above

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the children who are asking to be born

Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn

Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin

Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in

Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the end of love 

Dance me to the end of love

 

渴望之書
 

北島譯

 

我進(jìn)不了深山  

那系統(tǒng)不靈  

我依賴藥片  

還得感謝上天  

我沿那路程  

從混亂到藝術(shù)  

欲望為馬

抑郁為車  

我像天鵝航行  

我像石頭下沉  

而時(shí)光遠(yuǎn)去  

不理我的笑柄 

我的紙?zhí)��? 

我的墨太淡  

白晝不肯寫下  

夜用鉛筆涂鴉  

我的動(dòng)物嚎叫  

我的天使不安  

卻不許我  

有絲毫悔怨  

而有人將會(huì) 

強(qiáng)我所難  

我的心屬于她  

處之淡然  

她將踏上小路  

知我所言  

我的意志切成兩半  

在自由之間  

轉(zhuǎn)瞬片刻  

我們生命會(huì)相撞  

那無盡的停擺  

那敞開的門  

而她將為你  

這樣的人誕生  

敢為人先  

繼續(xù)向前  

我知道她正到來  

我知道她將顧盼  

就是那渴望  

就是這書

選自萊昂納德•科恩（Leonard Cohen）的詩畫集

【英文版】

Book Of Longing

I can't make the hills

The system is shot

I'm living on pills

For which I thank God

I followed thecourse

From chaos to art

Desire the horse

Depression the cart

I sailed like a swan

I sank like a rock

But time is long gone

Past my laughing stock

My page was toowhite

My ink was too thin

The day wouldn't write

What the night pencilled in

My animal howls

My angel's upset

But I'm not allowed

A trace of regret

For someone will use

What I couldn't be

My heart will be hers

Impersonally

She'll step on theparth

She'll see what I mean

My will cut in half

And freedom between

For less than asecond

Our lives will collide

The endless suspended

The door open wide

Then she will be born

To someone like you

What no one has done

She'll continue to be

I know she is coming

I know she will look

And that is the longing

And this is the book

慢

孔亞雷譯

我放慢音調(diào)

我從不貪快

你欲速則達(dá)

我最后才到

這不是因?yàn)槲依?/span>

那生活我不想要

我一向都慢

我媽老那么講

我系緊鞋帶

但我并不想跑

反正遲早會(huì)到

發(fā)令槍沒必要

這不是因?yàn)槲依?/span>

也不是死亡預(yù)告

我一向都慢

已經(jīng)無可救藥

我一向都慢

我從不貪快

你迫不及待

我流連忘返

這不是因?yàn)槲依?/span>

也不是我快死了

我一向都慢

我媽老那么講

你的動(dòng)作那么靈敏

你的轉(zhuǎn)折那么堅(jiān)硬

讓我喘口兒氣

既然長夜漫漫

我喜歡不慌不忙

我喜歡荒廢時(shí)光

在你唇上一個(gè)周末

在你眼里一輩子

我放慢音調(diào)

我從不貪快

你欲速則達(dá)

我最后才到

所以寶貝兒，

別管我了

他們在城里等你

假如他們問起

我只是想慢而又慢

Slow

I'm slowing down the tune

I've never liked it fast

You wanna get there soon

I wanna get there last

It's not because I'm old

It's not the life I led

I always liked it slow

That's what my mamma said

I'm lacing up my shoes

But I don't want to run

I'll get there when i do

Don't need no starting gun

It's not because i'm old

And it's not what dying does

I've always liked it slow

Slow is in my blood

All your moves are swift

All your turns are tight

Let me catch my breath

I thought we had all night

I like to take my time

I like to linger as it flies

A weekend on your lips

A lifetime in your eyes

I'm slowing down the tune

I've never liked it fast

You wanna get there soon

I wanna get there last

So， baby letme go

You're wanted back in town

In case they want to know

I'm just trying to slow down

The Sweetest Little Song

You go your way 

I'll go your way too

在我秘密的生活里 

在我秘密的生活里

清晨我看見你 

你如此快的離開 

看來我還是無法釋懷過往

我如此思念你 

沒人看得見 

我們依然在相愛 

在我秘密的生活里 

當(dāng)我憤怒我微笑 

我欺騙我說謊 

我做我必須做的 

為了生活

但我知道什么是錯(cuò) 

我知道什么是對 

我為真理而亡

在我秘密的生活里 

堅(jiān)持 堅(jiān)持 我的兄弟 

我的姐妹 抱緊我 

我最終得到我的法則 

我將走過清晨 

走過夜晚 

越過我秘密生活的邊緣 

閱讀這報(bào)紙 

讓你想哭泣 

沒有人關(guān)心這個(gè)人 

是死是活 

商人想你認(rèn)為 

這要么黑或白 

感謝上帝 這并不是這樣簡單 

在我秘密的生活里 

我咬住嘴唇 

我接受告知的話 

從這最新的妙語 

到古老的智慧 

但我總是孤獨(dú) 

我的心像冰 

它內(nèi)心充塞而寒冷 

在我秘密的生活里

In My Secret Life  

In my secret life 

I saw you this morning 

You were moving so fast 

Can’t seem to loosen my grip 

On the past

And I miss you so much 

There’s no one in sight 

And we’re still making love

In my secret life

I smile when I'm angry 

I cheat and I lie 

I do what I have to do 

To get by

But I know what is wrong 

And I know what is right 

And I'd die for the truth  

In my secret life 

Hold on, hold on, my brother 

My sister, hold on tight 

I finally got my orders

I'll be marching through the morning  

Marching through the night  

Moving cross the borders of my secret life  

Looked through the paper 

makes you want to cry 

Nobody cares if the people 

Live or die 

And the dealer wants you thinking  

That its either black or white 

Thank God its not that simple 

In my secret life

I bite my lip 

I buy what I'm told  

From the latest hit

To the wisdom of old

But I'm always alone  

And my heart is like ice 

And its crowded and cold

In my secret life 

 

　　科恩的生平和經(jīng)歷，網(wǎng)上通過谷歌和百度都能查到，在此不再贅述。他特有的沙啞蒼老的嗓音、喃喃自語的低訴大概是最能吸引聽眾的一個(gè)原因。大約世界上只有他才能發(fā)出這樣富有磁力的、像黑洞般把人吸進(jìn)去的聲音。鮑勃·迪倫曾說：“如果我必須當(dāng)一分鐘其他人，那個(gè)人很可能就是科恩。”

　　他是詩人、民謠歌手、小說家。34歲出版第一張專輯《萊昂納德·科恩之歌》，在音樂的發(fā)展道路上差不多像個(gè)老頭子一樣了。他和鮑勃迪倫不同，他只寫詩寫歌，不關(guān)心政治，所有的語言都直接的表達(dá)內(nèi)心所想，不用華麗修飾，不用添加矯情成分，音樂因?yàn)樗�的詩而存在，唱他的歌如同讀他的詩品他的人。

　　他離不開女人，早年的情史足夠?qū)懸槐竞駮�，�?dāng)年在希臘Hydra島上的木屋里，他與瑪麗安的風(fēng)流韻事也被他在《太久了，瑪麗安》作品中記錄下來。當(dāng)他想要自我流放的時(shí)候，那個(gè)島嶼給了他想要的生活，那些女人給了他過于奢侈的愛。

　　他把愛情的回憶和探討放到了音樂中，留在了詩歌里。
