【歌詞中譯】Tori Amos - “Flicker” 閃焰


(from "Audrie & Daisy" soundtrack)
中譯byBone
Flicker, yes flicker
閃焰,是的,微光閃爍
There it is, a little less faint
就在那兒,儘管微弱
A little more of your flame
再多一點便構成你的閃焰
Feel it warm your skin
感受它使你的肌膚暖和
Part of you trapped within
部分的自我亦受困其中

Shed a little light on this
點亮一盞明燈
Help me see
助我看清
Shed a little light on this
點亮一絲光明
Underneath the scarring from his defiling
在他玷污的傷痕之下
Underneath the pain
在痛苦之下

*Heroines
英雌們

They are not born, they are made
她們並非天生,而是後天造就
A phoenix forms, her ashes rise
鳳凰涅槃,自灰燼重生
Expose their hell
揭露她們的地獄
Break Satan's spell
打破撒旦的魔咒
Fire purifies
烈火淨化
It's redemption time
救贖的時刻到了

Flicker, yes, flicker
閃焰,是的,微光閃爍
When neighbours and friends
當鄰居與朋友們
Only give you their burning silence
只給你 他們熾熱的沉默
Even with torches raised
即便舉起了火把
Part of you can't feel safe
一部分的你仍感到不安

Shed a little light on this
點亮一盞明燈
Help me see
助我看清
Shed a little light on this, please
點亮一絲光明,拜託你
Shed a little light on this
點亮一盞明燈
And on those who excuse this act of violence
照出那些為暴力行為辯解的人
Choosing you to play
選擇你來扮演

Repeat *

Shed a little light on this
點亮一絲光明
Shed a little light on this
點亮一盞明燈

Tori Amos的"Cornflake Girl"是個歌詞翻譯令人恐懼的一大挑戰, 我不敢接
