Dutch Proverbs
You may buy a clock
But may not buy time
You can buy a bed
But can't buy sleeping
You may buy a book
But may not buy wisdom
You can buy status
But can't buy dignity
You may buy insurance
But may not buy safety
You can buy sweet
But can't but sweetness
You may buy food and liquor
But may not buy friends
You can buy an air conditioner
But can't buy a spring
How much can you earn?
In exchange for exhaustion of your youth?
You desire to buy happiness
But more and more greedy
How much can you spend?
Can you run out of all your money in this life?
How much need you to squander
To feed and fill your greed?
You may buy a house
But may not buy a family
You can buy a sex
But can't buy a love
You may buy an elixir
But may not buy health
You can buy blood
But can't buy a life
How much can you earn?
In exchange for exhaustion of your youth?
You desire to buy happiness
But more and more greedy
How much can you spend?
Can you run out of all your money in this life?
How much need you to squander
To feed and fill your greed?
Even though you buy the city
You can't buy the key to its gate
Each note, each token of your wealth
Looks then quite sarcastic
You may have heard about these proverbs
Though you've never been in Amsterdam
Please forget your property now
And seek for your splendid paradise
You may buy a clock
But may not buy time
You can buy a bed
But can't buy sleeping
But may not buy time
You can buy a bed
But can't buy sleeping
You may buy a book
But may not buy wisdom
You can buy status
But can't buy dignity
You may buy insurance
But may not buy safety
You can buy sweet
But can't but sweetness
You may buy food and liquor
But may not buy friends
You can buy an air conditioner
But can't buy a spring
How much can you earn?
In exchange for exhaustion of your youth?
You desire to buy happiness
But more and more greedy
How much can you spend?
Can you run out of all your money in this life?
How much need you to squander
To feed and fill your greed?
You may buy a house
But may not buy a family
You can buy a sex
But can't buy a love
You may buy an elixir
But may not buy health
You can buy blood
But can't buy a life
How much can you earn?
In exchange for exhaustion of your youth?
You desire to buy happiness
But more and more greedy
How much can you spend?
Can you run out of all your money in this life?
How much need you to squander
To feed and fill your greed?
Even though you buy the city
You can't buy the key to its gate
Each note, each token of your wealth
Looks then quite sarcastic
You may have heard about these proverbs
Though you've never been in Amsterdam
Please forget your property now
And seek for your splendid paradise
You may buy a clock
But may not buy time
You can buy a bed
But can't buy sleeping
中文歌词
荷兰谚语
你可以买到时钟
但买不到时间
你可以买到床
但买不到睡眠
你可以买到书本
但买不到智慧
你可以买到地位
但买不到尊严
你可以买到保险
但买不到安全
你可以买到糖
但买不到甘甜
你可以买到酒肉
但买不到朋友
你可以买到空调
但买不到春天
你能赚多少钱
耗尽你青春去交换
你奢望买到幸福
却越来越不能知足
你能花多少钱
一辈子能不能花完
要挥霍多少银两
去填饱饥渴的贪婪
你可以买到房子
但买不到家庭
你可以买到性
但买不到爱情
你可以买到药水
但买不到健康
你可以买到血液
但买不到生命
你能赚多少钱
耗尽你青春去交换
你奢望买到幸福
却越来越不能知足
你能花多少钱
一辈子能不能花完
要挥霍多少银两
去填饱饥渴的贪婪
就算你买下这座城市
但买不到开城门的钥匙
一张张炫耀财富的纸
这时候显得特别讽刺
你应该听过这些谚语
却从没去过阿姆斯特丹
请暂时抛下你的家产
去寻找心中的美丽天堂
你可以买到时钟
但买不到时间
你可以买到床
但买不到睡眠
但买不到时间
你可以买到床
但买不到睡眠
你可以买到书本
但买不到智慧
你可以买到地位
但买不到尊严
你可以买到保险
但买不到安全
你可以买到糖
但买不到甘甜
你可以买到酒肉
但买不到朋友
你可以买到空调
但买不到春天
你能赚多少钱
耗尽你青春去交换
你奢望买到幸福
却越来越不能知足
你能花多少钱
一辈子能不能花完
要挥霍多少银两
去填饱饥渴的贪婪
你可以买到房子
但买不到家庭
你可以买到性
但买不到爱情
你可以买到药水
但买不到健康
你可以买到血液
但买不到生命
你能赚多少钱
耗尽你青春去交换
你奢望买到幸福
却越来越不能知足
你能花多少钱
一辈子能不能花完
要挥霍多少银两
去填饱饥渴的贪婪
就算你买下这座城市
但买不到开城门的钥匙
一张张炫耀财富的纸
这时候显得特别讽刺
你应该听过这些谚语
却从没去过阿姆斯特丹
请暂时抛下你的家产
去寻找心中的美丽天堂
你可以买到时钟
但买不到时间
你可以买到床
但买不到睡眠
