Sutter's Mill - Dan Fogelberg[00:00:00]

In the spring of 47[00:00:29]

故事的发生[00:00:36]

So the story it is told[00:00:36]

要从1847年的春天说起 [00:00:43]

Old John Sutter went to the mill site[00:00:43]

老约翰.萨特在磨坊外 [00:00:50]

Found a piece of shinin' gold[00:00:50]

拾到一块金子 [00:00:58]

Well he took it to the city[00:00:58]

于是带着它去了城里[00:01:05]

Where the word like wildfire spread[00:01:05]

在那里关于金矿的消息如野火蔓延开来 [00:01:12]

And old John Sutter soon came to wish he'd[00:01:12]

萨特很快就后悔 [00:01:19]

Left that stone in the river bed[00:01:19]

该把那块石头留在河床上 [00:01:26]

For they came like herds of locusts[00:01:26]

人们集聚如蝗 [00:01:33]

Every woman child and man[00:01:33]

男人、女人和孩子们 [00:01:40]

In their lumberin' Conestogas[00:01:40]

在大篷车笨重的前行中 [00:01:48]

They left their tracks upon the land[00:01:48]

将车辙留在原野上 [00:01:55]

Some would fail and some would prosper[00:01:55]

有人无功而返有人心遂所愿[00:02:02]

Some would die and some would kill[00:02:02]

有人长眠异乡有人图财害命 [00:02:09]

Some would thank the Lord for their deliverance[00:02:09]

有人将感激上帝解脱了他们 [00:02:16]

And some would curse John Sutter's Mill[00:02:16]

有人会诅咒约翰萨特的磨房 [00:02:24]

Well they came from New York City[00:02:24]

他们有的来自纽约城 [00:02:31]

And they came from Alabama[00:02:31]

有的来自阿拉巴马州 [00:02:38]

With their dreams of findin' fortunes[00:02:38]

带着他们的发财梦 [00:02:45]

In this wild unsettled land[00:02:45]

来到这荒蛮的土地上 [00:02:52]

Well some fell prey to hostile arrows[00:02:52]

一些人在穿越平原时[00:03:00]

As they tried to cross the plains[00:03:00]

命丧箭下 [00:03:07]

And some were lost in the Rocky Mountains[00:03:07]

一些人失踪在洛基山脉 [00:03:14]

With their hands froze to the reins[00:03:14]

冻饿而亡 [00:03:21]

Oh some would fail and some would prosper[00:03:21]

噢有人无功而返有人心遂所愿[00:03:28]

And some would curse John Sutter's Mill[00:03:42]

有人会诅咒约翰萨特的磨房 [00:04:18]

Well some pushed on to California[00:04:18]

一些人执著前行去往加州[00:04:25]

And others stopped to take their rest[00:04:25]

一些人驻足不往休养生息[00:04:32]

And by the Spring of 1860[00:04:32]

1860年时[00:04:40]

They had opened up the West[00:04:40]

他们开发了西部 [00:04:47]

And then the railroad came behind them[00:04:47]

铁路随后而至 [00:04:54]

And the land was plowed and tamed[00:04:54]

荒原终被开发和征服 [00:05:01]

When old John Sutter went to meet his maker[00:05:01]

当约翰萨特离开人世 [00:05:08]

He'd not one penny to his name[00:05:08]

自己却一文不名 [00:05:15]

Oh some would fail and some would prosper[00:05:15]

有人无功而返有人心遂所愿 [00:05:22]

Some would die and some would kill[00:05:22]

有人长眠异乡有人图财害命 [00:05:29]

Some men's thirsts are never filled[00:05:51]

有人的欲望却永远无法满足 [00:05:56]
