The Silver Swan

The Silver Swan
中 文 曲 名雪白的天鵝
外 文 曲 名The Silver Swan
作曲/編曲家Orlando Gibbons
原 文 歌 詞

 

The Silver Swan, who living had no note,
When death approached, unlocked her silent throat;
Leaning her breast against the reedy shore,
Thus sung her first and last,
And sung no more:
"Farewell all joys;
O death, come close mine eyes;
More geese than swans now live,
More fools than wise."
 
中 文 歌 詞

 

雪白的天鵝生前不鳴
直到死神降臨,劃開靜默咽喉
牠的胸倚在蘆葦岸邊
如此初吟卻成絕唱
再也不復聞:
「一切歡樂皆已消逝,
我將闔眼死去,
鴻鵠凋零,僅餘鵝雁,
愚蠢已淹沒智性」
