Hello In There - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

We had an apartment in the city

我在城里有一套公寓

Me and Loretta liked living there

洛丽塔和我住在那里

It's been years since the kids had grown

孩子们已经成人许多年

A life of their own left us alone

他们开始去追寻自己的人生，把我俩留在了这里

John and Linda live in Omaha

约翰和琳达住在奥马哈

And Joe is somewhere on the road

乔呢，他就住在街边的公寓里

We lost Davy in the Korean war

在朝鲜战争中我们失去了戴维

Still don't know what for don't matter anymore

我们现在依旧无法释怀，但是一切已经不再重要了

You know that old trees just grow stronger

年老的树往往越长越结实

And old rivers grow wilder ev'ry day

越是年久的河流也往往越流淌越宽阔

But old people they just grow lonesome

但是老年人总是容易孤单

Waiting for someone to say

他们总是等着有人对他们说

＂Hello in there hello ＂

你还好吗，你好啊

Me and Loretta we don't talk much now

洛丽塔和我之间，话并不多

She sits and stares through at back door screen

她总是呆坐着，盯着后门的电视屏幕

And all the news just repeats itself

电视上面播的新闻总是一遍又一遍的重复

Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen

就像是一个个我们曾共同见证却又忘怀掉的梦想

Someday I'll go and call up Rudy

以后我会去卢迪那转转

We worked together at the factory

我们过去在一间工厂里上班

But what'd I tell him if he asks ＂What's new ＂

但是如果他问我，最近有什么有趣的事发生吗，我会告诉他

＂Nothing what's with you

没什么，那么你呢

Nothing much to do ＂

我也无事可做

Ya' know that old trees just grow stronger

年老的树往往越长越结实

And old rivers grow wilder ev'ry day

越是年久的河流也往往越流淌越宽阔

Old people they just grow lonesome

老年人容易变得孤独

Waiting for someone to say

他们总是等着有人对他们说

＂Hello in there hello ＂

你还好吗，你好啊

So if you're walking down the street sometime

如果当你走在街头

And spot some hollow ancient eyes

看到了一双双眼窝深陷，年老的眼睛是

Please don't just pass 'em by and stare

请你别只是在路过时死死盯着它们

As if you didn't care say ＂Hello in there hello ＂

如果你不介意，请你对他们说，你还好吗，你好啊

Say ＂Hello in there hello ＂

对他们说，你还好吗，你好啊
