海洋之歌，大地之歌试译

这两首歌都是50年代出生的英国女民谣歌手mary hopkin的作品。我喜欢这两首歌。歌词隐秘抽象，这种模糊美就像李商隐的诗歌一样，令人着迷。另外，歌词反复回旋，也类似中国诗歌的传统。我认为歌词意涵可能是倾向“寻找自我”“寻找内心的平静”，不过也不知道是不是，各人有各自的理解吧。mary hopkin的的嗓音和气质太适合演绎民谣了，如果评分系统有10颗星的话，我一定给这两首评10星。
虽然水平烂得很，但有时间想把mary hopkin的歌词都译一遍，就当自娱自乐了，我想接触和感知这种美

OCEAN SONG
海洋之歌
When you're alone, there's no one to forgive or mend,
当你形单影只，你不愿意宽恕和解
your mind is blind, your senses will not blend,
你意识盲目，意志却不屈服
you feel the strain, you see the stain,
你焦虑，你看见了污点
and you can't get back again,
你再也回不去了
gotta hitch a ride with a friend to the end of the ocean.
和你的朋友一起驶向深海吧
Your wisdom hides you from your fate sometimes,
你的聪慧让你不能直面命运
looking into mirrors for signs of nursery rhymes,
在镜子里寻找童谣的存在
you hear the call, tear down the wall,
你听到了召唤，你推倒对面的墙
but there's one more flight of stairs to climb,
但是你只看见一阶阶通往更高处的梯子
gotta give a ride to a friend to the end of the ocean.
和你的朋友一起驶向深海吧
If sorrow's spiral leaves you looking down,
如果忧伤让你总是低沉
calling like some madman on the sleeping town,
那就在这沉睡的城市，疯了般地给人打电话吧
don't look back, you can't turn back,
别回头，你不能回头了
give bread to all who ask.
把面包递给需要的人吧
'cause you've found a friend to take you to the end of the ocean,
因为你找到一个带你去海洋深处的朋友了
oh you've found a friend to take you to the end of the ocean
你找到一个带你去海洋深处的朋友了
