//[00:00:10]
Well I'm on the Downeaster Alexa[00:00:10]
我现在正在唐依斯特阿丽莎号船上[00:00:16]
And I'm cruising through Block Island Sound[00:00:16]
我正驾驶着它巡航穿越石峡岛[00:00:21]
I have charted a course to the Vineyard[00:00:21]
我已经准备好去向温亚德的行程[00:00:27]
But tonight I am Nantucket bound[00:00:27]
但今夜我将向楠塔基特前进[00:00:33]
We took on diesel back in Montauk yesterday[00:00:33]
昨天我们已在蒙托克加满油[00:00:38]
And left this morning from the bell in Gardiner's Bay[00:00:38]
今晨伴随着加德纳海湾的钟声出发[00:00:44]
Like all the locals here I've had to sell my home[00:00:44]
和当地的其他人一样 我必须卖掉我的房子[00:00:49]
Too proud to leave I worked my fingers to the bone[00:00:49]
出于自尊我不愿离开这里 一直拼命工作[00:00:53]
So I could own my Downeaster Alexa[00:00:53]
我坚信唐依斯特阿丽莎号邮轮会有的[00:00:59]
And I go where the ocean is deep[00:00:59]
扬帆去向浩瀚深邃的海洋[00:01:05]
There are giants out there in the canyons[00:01:05]
峡谷中有巨形怪物[00:01:10]
And a good captain can't fall asleep[00:01:10]
而我作为好船长则丝毫不能松懈[00:01:16]
I've got bills to pay and children who need clothes[00:01:16]
我的账单还没付清 我的孩子还没有衣服穿[00:01:22]
I know there's fish out there but where God only knows[00:01:22]
我知道海里有鱼 但是天知道他们到底在哪里[00:01:27]
They say these waters aren't what they used to be[00:01:27]
他们说这些海洋已经今非昔比[00:01:33]
But I've got people back on land who count on me[00:01:33]
但是陆地上还有需要我照顾的人[00:01:37]
So if you see my Downeaster Alexa[00:01:37]
因此 如果你看见我的唐依斯特阿丽莎号[00:01:42]
And if you work with the rod and the reel[00:01:42]
而且你在海边用钓鱼竿捕鱼[00:01:48]
Tell my wife I am trolling Atlantis[00:01:48]
请告诉我的妻子 我正在大西洋捕鱼[00:01:53]
And I still have my hands on the wheel[00:01:53]
我会坚持到底 决不放弃[00:02:33]
Now I drive my Downeaster Alexa[00:02:33]
如今我驾驶着我的唐依斯特阿丽莎号[00:02:37]
More and more miles from shore every year[00:02:37]
逐年远离海岸[00:02:42]
Since they tell me I can't sell no stripers[00:02:42]
他们告诉我条纹鲈鱼已经卖不出去了[00:02:48]
And there's no luck in swordfishing here[00:02:48]
但是我也没有运气碰见剑鱼[00:02:55]
I was a bayman like my father was before[00:02:55]
我和我老爸一样也是一个渔民[00:03:00]
Can't make a living as a bayman anymore[00:03:00]
这种工作已经不能维持生计[00:03:05]
There ain't much future for a man who works the sea[00:03:05]
以海为生的人也没有什么未来[00:03:11]
But there ain't no island left for islanders like me[00:03:11]
但我这样有信念的渔民终会拥有自己的一片天地[00:03:16]
