Iron Maiden - Dance of Death 歌词翻译

让我给你讲个故事，让你不寒而栗
关于我看到的一件事
有天晚上我在沼泽地里游荡
我喝了一杯，但没再喝（或：就没有了）

我漫步着，欣赏着明亮的月光
仰望星空
没有意识到有一个存在离我如此之近
看着我的一举一动

我感到害怕，跪了下来
当某种东西从树林里冲了出来抓住我
带我到一个不圣洁的地方
那是我误入歧途的地方

他们传唤我过去加入他们
加入死亡之舞
我跟着他们进入了火圈
我被带到中间

仿佛时间静止了
我吓呆了，但还是想去
火也没有伤着我
当我走上煤块时

我感觉我出神了
我的灵魂离开我
但愿有人有机会
目睹我的遭遇

然后我舞蹈，然后我大步跳，然后我和他们一起唱
他们的眼里充满死亡
没有生命的躯体，他们全是不死之身
他们从地狱上来了

我与死者共舞之际
我获得自由灵魂对我又笑又叫
我不死的身体只是跳着死亡之舞

直到我们俩重新团聚的时刻到来
我的灵魂回到我的身体里
我不知道我是死了还是或者

幸运的是，一场小冲突开始了
把注意力从我身上移开
当他们把目光从我身上移开时
是我逃跑的那一刻

我跑得比风还快
但我没有回头看
有一件事我不敢做
就是往前看

当你知道你的时间到了
你知道你会为此做好准备的
向每个人做最后的道别
喝吧，为它祈祷

当你在睡眠中躺着，当你在床上躺着
然后你从梦中醒来，与死人共舞
当你在睡眠中躺着，当你在床上躺着
然后你从梦中醒来，与死人共舞

直到今天，我想我永远也不会知道
为什么他们让我走
但我再也不去跳舞了
直到我与死人共舞
其他人都加入了我

Let me tell you a story to chill the bones
About a thing that I saw
One night wandering in the Everglades
I had one drink but no more

I was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight
Gazing up at the stars
Not aware of a presence so near to me
Watching my every move

Feeling scared and I fell to my knees
As something rushed me from the trees
Took me to an unholy place
And that is where I fell from grace

And they summoned me over to join in with them
To the Dance of the Dead
Into the circle of fire I followed them
Into the middle I was led

As if time had stopped still
I was numb with fear, but still, I wanted to go
And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me
As I walked onto the coals

And I felt I was in a trance
And my spirit was lifted from me
And if only someone had the chance
To witness what happened to me

And I danced and I pranced and I sang with them
All had death in their eyes
Lifeless figures they were undead all of them
They had ascended from hell

As I danced with the dead
My free spirit was laughing and howling down at me
Below my undead body just danced the circle of dead

Until the time came to reunite us both
My spirit came back down to me
I didn't know if I was alive or dead
As the others all joined in with me

By luck then a skirmish started
And took the attention away from me
When they took their gaze from me
Was the moment that I fled

I ran like hell faster than the wind
But behind I did not glance
One thing that I did not dare
Was to look just straight ahead

When you know that your time has come around
You know you'll be prepared for it
Say your last goodbyes to everyone
Drink and say a prayer for it

When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead
When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed
And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead

To this day I guess I'll never know
Just why they let me go
But I'll never go dancing no more
Until I dance with the dead
As the others all joined in with me
