Ponies - John Denver (约翰·丹佛)

Horses are creatures who worship the earth

马儿是崇拜大地的生物

As they gallop on feet of ivory

他们在象牙塔脚下奔驰

Constrained by the wonder of dying and birth

他们受到生存与死亡的束缚

The horses still run they are free

但马儿仍然奔驰，他们是自由的

My body is merely the shell of my soul

我的身体只是灵魂的躯壳

But the flesh must be given its due

但肉体也要履行它的责任

Like a pony that carries its rider back home

像小马也要将主人载回家

Like an old friend that's tried and been true

就像一个真诚忠厚的老朋友

I had a vision of eagles and horses

我看到了马儿与老鹰的景象

High on a ridge in a race with the wind

在高高的山脊上与疾风竞跑

Going higher and higher and faster and faster

他们跑得越来越高，越来越快

On eagles and horses i'm flying again

我也在老鹰与马儿的身上飞了起来

Eagles inhabit the heavenly heights

老鹰栖息在天堂的高度

They know neither limit nor bound

他们从不知有任何界限束缚

They're the guardian angels of darkness and light

他们是黑暗与光明的守护天使

They see all and hear every sound

他们目睹一切，耳听八方

My spirit will never be broken or caught

我的灵魂将永远不会被打破或束缚

For the soul is a free-flowing thing

因为灵魂是可以自由飞翔的事物

Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought

就像老鹰不需要安慰与思考

To rise up on glorious wings

一样可以展翅翱翔

I had a vision of eagles and horses

我看到了马儿与老鹰的景象

High on a ridge in a race with the wind

在高高的山脊上与疾风竞跑

Going higher and higher and faster and faster

他们跑得越来越高，越来越快

On eagles and horses i'm flying again

我也在老鹰与马儿的身上飞了起来

Flying again

飞了起来

I'm flying again

我也飞了起来

My body is merely the shell of my soul

我的身体只是灵魂的躯壳

But the flesh must be given its due

但肉体也要履行它的责任

Like a pony that carries its master back home

像小马也要将主人载回家

Like an old that's tried and been true

就像一个真诚忠厚的老朋友

My spirit will never be broken or caught

我的灵魂将永远不会被打破或束缚

For the soul is a free-flowing thing

因为灵魂是可以自由飞翔的事物

Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought

就像老鹰不需要安慰与思考

To rise up on glorious wings

一样可以展翅翱翔

I had a vision of eagles and horses

我看到了马儿与老鹰的景象

High on a ridge in a race with the wind

在高高的山脊上与疾风竞跑

Going higher and higher and faster and faster

他们跑得越来越高，越来越快

On eagles and horses i'm flying again

我也在老鹰与马儿的身上飞了起来

Flying again

飞了起来

Flying again

飞了起来

Flying again

飞了起来

I'm flying again

我也飞了起来
