Vincent

Starry, starry night
星光熠熠的夜晚

Paint your palette blue and gray
你卻將調色盤調成藍與灰

Look out on a summer's day with eyes that know the darkness in my soul
在這夏日裡用你的雙眼洞悉我靈魂的幽暗處

Shadows on the hills sketch the trees and daffodils
山丘上的陰影 描繪勾勒出樹與水仙花

Catch the breeze and the winter chills in colors on the snowy linen land
在這一片皎潔如雪的亞麻田，用色彩捕捉微風與冬天的冷冽
( 在冬日戚冷的寒風中，你給雪白亞麻布塗上絢麗的顏色)

Now I understand what you tried to say to me
如今我才明白，你試圖想對我傾訴的

How you suffered for your sanity
你在清醒時，飽歷霜雪
How you tried to set them free
極力想從中解脫出來

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
盈盈欲燃的花朵閃耀著輝煌
Swirling clouds in violet haze
漩渦似的雲飄在紫羅蘭色的薄霧裡
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
映照在梵谷那雙中國藍的眼瞳裡
Colors changing hue
色彩變化萬千
Morning fields of amber grain
清晨的田園裡琥珀色的農作物
Weathered faces lined in pain are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
佈滿風霜的臉羅列著痛苦， 在藝術家憐愛的手下得到撫慰

Now I understand what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps, they'll listen now

For they could not love you
因為他們無法愛你
And still your love was true
而你的愛卻依然真實
And those night have no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night
那些沒有希望的長夜，被遺忘在星光燦爛的夜裡

You took your life as lovers often do
你像許多戀人一樣，奉獻你的生命
But I could have told you, Vincent
但願我能告訴你，文生
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
這個世界不像你那般美好 (不如你畫作中的那麼絢爛)

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty hall
一幅幅的肖像懸掛在空盪盪的大廳裡
Frameless heads on nameless walls With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
無鑲框的臉倚靠在寂然的牆上，配上一雙看遍世事且永不遺忘的雙眼
Like the strangers that you've met
正如你碰到的陌生人
The ragged man in ragged clothes
破舊的衣裳潦倒的人
The silver thorn of bloody rose
血色的玫瑰上銀色的刺
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
就這樣在初雪上鋪陳開

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
Then how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
他們不會聽也沒有在聽
Perhaps, they never will...
或許他們永遠也不會...
