特邀佳作：Into my arms-英语点津

我听之我见：Nick Cave 的歌曲往往以表现焦躁不安甚至暴力的情绪著称，可是这首 Into my arms 却是娓娓道来，出奇地温柔，不过或许狂躁过后的温柔，沧桑背后的真挚，鲜明对比之下的冲击才更能打动人。诗一般的歌词，悠扬的旋律，低沉有力的声音——这种奇妙的组合会穿过骨头抚摸到我们最柔软的神经。歌词构成的三个部分层层深入，纵然是……

Lyrics

Into my arms byNick Cave

I don't believe in aninterventionistGod
But I know, darling, that you do
But if I did I wouldkneel downand ask Him
Not to intervene when it came to you
Oh, not to touch a hair on your head
To leave you as you are
If He felt He had to direct you
And direct you into my arms

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

And I don't believe in the existence of angels
But looking at you I wonder if that's true
But if I did I wouldsummonthem together
And ask them towatch overyou
Well, to each burn a candle for you
To make bright and clear your path
And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
And guide you into my arms

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

But I believe in love
And I know that you do too
And I believe in some kind of path
That we can walk down, me and you
So would keep your candles burning
Make her journey bright and pure
That she will keep returning
Always and evermore

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

中文歌词

到我怀里来 尼克·凯夫

我不相信有一个干涉主义的上帝，
但我知道，亲爱的，你相信。
但如果相信，我就会跪下，然后请求他，
别干涉你的一切，
别触摸你的头发，
就让你保持原来的样子。
如果他觉得他必须要引领你，
就让他把你带到我怀里来吧。

到我怀里来，噢,上帝!
到我怀里来，噢,上帝!
到我怀里来，噢,上帝!
到我怀里来。
