The Mercy Seat - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)
//
It all began when they took me from my home
故事开始于他们把我从家里拖出来
And put me on Death Row
然后他们将我关进死囚室
A crime for which I am totally innocent you know
因为我犯罪了 但你知道 我是无辜的
I began to warm and chill
身处死囚牢房
To objects and their fields
我的身体开始颤抖
A ragged cup a twisted mop
这里只有破烂不堪的杯具和拖把
The face of Jesus in my soup
我的菜汤里仿佛能看见耶稣
Those sinister dinner deals
这些极不吉祥的晚餐
The meal trolley's wicked wheels
餐车的轮子破旧恶劣
A hooked bone rising from my food
我的汤里浮起钩状的骨头
All things either good or ungood
事事非好即坏
And the mercy seat is waiting
施恩座就在眼前了
And I think my head is burning
我的头感觉像要爆炸了一般
And in a way I'm yearning
但是某种程度上 我又渴望着
To be done with all this weighing of the truth
不再去权衡真相
An eye for an eye
以眼还眼
And a tooth for a tooth
以牙还牙
And anyway I told the truth
不管怎么说 我说出了真相
And I'm not afraid to die
我并不是怕死
I hear stories from the chamber
我从律师处听闻了这个故事
Christ was born into a manger
基督生于马槽
And like some ragged stranger
就像那些衣衫褴褛的陌生人
He died upon the cross
他死在了十字架上
Might I say it seems so fitting in its way
不知当不当讲 这可能是最合适的选择
He was a carpenter by trade
他是一个木匠 生意人
Or at least that's what I'm told
至少别人是这样告诉我的
My kill-hand's
这个杀手
Tatooed E V I L across it's brother's fist
在他兄弟的拳头上纹了EVIL的字样
That filthy five They did nothing to challenge or resit
那极其不堪 他们不具任何挑战性
In Heaven His throne is made of gold
在天堂 他的皇冠镶满金子
The ark of his Testament is stowed
他的圣约书里的方舟已转载好
A throne from which I'm told All history does unfold
有人就这样跟我说 事情终会水落石出
It's made of wood and wire
由木头和绳索制造
And my body is on fire
我的身体仿佛要爆炸一般
And God is never far away
上帝与我同在
Into the mercy seat I climb
我爬上施恩座
My head is shaved my head is wired
我剃了光头 戴上接有电线的帽子
And like a moth that tries
我就像飞蛾
To enter the bright eye
尝试进入明亮的地方
I go shuffling out of life
我脱离了世俗的生活
Just to hide in death awhile
只想就这样离开人世
And anyway I never lied
不管怎么说 我说出来真相
And the mercy seat is waiting
施恩座就在眼前了
And I think my head is burning
我的大脑一阵发热
And in a way I'm yearning
但是我又渴望着
To be done with all this weighing of the truth
能够结束真相的权衡
An eye for an eye And a tooth for a tooth
以牙还牙 以眼还眼
And anyway I told the truth And I'm not afraid to die
反正我说了实话 我也不是怕死
And the mercy seat is burning

And in a way I'm hopin'
一定程度上 我希望
To be done with all this twistin' of the truth

An eye for an eye And a tooth for a tooth

And any way there was no proof And I'm not afraid to die
