A stranger lying on a bar room floor[00:00:14]
一个陌生人躺在酒吧的地板上[00:00:17]
Had drank so much he could drink no more[00:00:17]
喝了太多酒他再也喝不下了[00:00:20]
And so he fell asleep with a troubled brain[00:00:20]
于是他带着困惑入睡[00:00:23]
To dream that he rode on that down bound train[00:00:23]
梦见他坐上了那列下行列车[00:00:31]
The engine with blood was sweaty and damp[00:00:31]
沾满鲜血的引擎汗流浃背[00:00:34]
And brilliantly lit with a brimstone lamp[00:00:34]
用一盏硫黄色的灯发出耀眼的光芒[00:00:38]
And imps for fuel were shoveling bones[00:00:38]
小恶魔挖空心思[00:00:41]
While the furnace rang with a thousand groans[00:00:41]
炉子里响起一千声呻吟[00:00:49]
The boiler was filled with lager beer[00:00:49]
锅炉里装满了淡啤酒[00:00:52]
The devil himself was the engineer[00:00:52]
恶魔本身就是工程师[00:00:55]
The passengers were most a motley crew[00:00:55]
乘客大部分都是形形色色的人[00:00:58]
Some were foreigners and others he knew[00:00:58]
有些是外国人有些他认识[00:01:02]
Rich men in broadcloth beggars in rags[00:01:02]
腰缠万贯衣衫褴褛的乞丐[00:01:05]
Handsome young ladies and wicked old hags[00:01:05]
英俊的年轻女孩邪恶的老巫婆[00:01:28]
As the train rushed on at a terrible pace[00:01:28]
当火车以可怕的速度飞驰[00:01:31]
Sulphuric fumes scorched their hands and face[00:01:31]
硫酸烟雾烧焦了他们的手和脸[00:01:34]
Wider and wider the country grew[00:01:34]
这个国家越变越大[00:01:38]
Faster and faster the engine flew[00:01:38]
引擎越来越快[00:01:41]
Louder and louder the thunder crashed[00:01:41]
雷声越来越大[00:01:44]
Brighter and brighter the lighting flashed[00:01:44]
越来越亮灯光闪烁[00:01:48]
Hotter and hotter the air became[00:01:48]
空气变得越来越热[00:01:50]
Till their clothes were burned[00:01:50]
直到他们的衣服被烧光[00:01:52]
And they were screaming with pain[00:01:52]
他们痛苦地尖叫[00:01:54]
Then out of the distance there came a yell[00:01:54]
远处传来一声呐喊[00:01:57]
Ha ha said the devil we're nearing home[00:01:57]
恶魔说我们快要到家了[00:02:01]
Oh how the passengers shrieked with pain[00:02:01]
乘客们痛苦地尖叫[00:02:04]
And begged old Satan to stop that train[00:02:04]
祈求撒旦停下火车[00:02:12]
The stranger awoke with an anguished cry[00:02:12]
陌生人在痛苦的呼唤中醒来[00:02:15]
His clothes wet with sweat and his hair standing high[00:02:15]
[00:02:18]
He fell on his knees on the bar room floor[00:02:18]
他双膝跪地倒在酒吧的地板上[00:02:21]
And prayed a prayer like never before[00:02:21]
做着从未有过的祷告[00:02:32]
And the prayers and vows were not in vain[00:02:32]
那些祈祷和誓言没有白费[00:02:37]
For he never rode that down bound train[00:02:37]
因为他从未坐过那趟开往远方的列车[00:02:42]
