Was a long and dark December

那是一个漫长的黑色腊月

From the rooftops I remember

这些房顶让我起了回忆

There was snow

那时有雪

White snow

皑皑白雪

Clearly I remember

我记得很清

From the windows they were watching

他们就在窗户里干看着

While we froze down below

而我们却在下面挨冻

When the future's architectured

当我们的未来被

By a carnival of idiots on show

一群只会喝酒吃肉的杂种规划时

You'd better lie low

你最好先忍着吧

If you love me

如果你真的爱我

Won't you let me know?

为什么不让我看出来呢？

Was a long and dark December

在那个漫长的黑色腊月

When the banks became cathedrals

银行都变成了教堂

And the fog

一只老狐狸

Became God

却成了上帝

Priests clutched onto bibles

牧师们紧攥着圣经

And went out to fit their rifles

被强行拖去扛枪

And the cross was held aloft

空留十字架高高地举起

Bury me in honor

当我倒地牺牲之时

When I'm dead and hit the ground

把我光荣地埋葬吧

A love back home unfolds

我的勇气是永不冻结的旗帜

If you love me

如果你真的爱我

Won't you let me know?

为什么不让我看出来呢？

I don't want to be a soldier

我可不想当个

With the captain of some sinking ship

被某个沉船船长

With snow, far below

塞到船底的士兵

So if you love me

如果你爱我的话

Why'd you let me go?

为什么不管我呢？

I took my love down to violet hill

我带我的爱人来到紫罗兰山丘

There we sat in snow

我们一同坐在雪地里

All that time she was silent still

自始至终，她都静默不语

So if you love me

如果你爱我的话

Won't you let me know?

为什么不告诉我呢？

If you love me,

如果你爱我

Won't you let me know?

为什么不告诉我呢？
