I Am A Rock

我是一塊石頭

A winter's day
In a deep and dark December;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
 

這個冬日
在陰暗的十二月;
我獨站窗前,
凝視著下面的街道
覆蓋著新鮮沉寂的雪衣。
我是一塊石頭,
我是一個孤島。

I've built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

我築起圍牆,
一個壁壘深嚴的碉堡,
密不可透。
我不需要朋友,朋友給我痛苦。
笑聲與愛令人唏噓。
我是一塊石頭,
我是一個孤島。

Don't talk of love,
But I've heard the words before;
It's sleeping in my memory.
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
 

不要談情說愛,
甜言蜜語都聽過;
躲藏在記憶中。
酣睡不要打擾,感情已死。
如果從來沒有愛,就永遠不會哭。
我是一塊石頭,
我是一個孤島。

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
 

我與書為伴
還有詩集的
蔭庇;
罩上盔甲,
做個宅男,藏身蝸居。
我不接觸任何人,沒有人能碰我。
我是一塊石頭,
我是一個孤島。

And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries.


石頭沒有痛苦;
孤島從不哭泣。
