Starry, starry night
繁星之夜

Paint your palette blue and gray
星空在你的调色板照得灰暗幽兰
Look out on a summer s day
某个夏日
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
用洞知我灵魂黑暗的双眼
Shadows on the hills
看到山上的阴影
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
画上树和水仙花
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
捕捉微风和秋天的寒冷
In colors on the snowy linen land
用积雪的亚麻大地的颜色
Now I understand
现在我明白了
What you tried to say to me
你想对我说什么
And how you suffered for your sanity
你如何承受天才智慧的折磨
And how you tried to set them free
你如何试图解脱自己
They would not listen; they did not know how
他们从来不听,他们根本不知道
Perhaps they ll listen now
也许现在他们会听

Starry, starry night
繁星之夜
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
耀眼的花朵闪烁光芒
Swirling clouds in violet haze
流转的云朵散发紫罗兰的朦胧
Reflect in Vincent s eyes of china blue
在文森特中国蓝的眼睛中闪耀
Colors changing hue
颜色在变
Morning fields of amber grain
清晨琥珀色的田野
Weathered faces lined in pain
痛苦中风化的脸
Are soothed beneath the artist s loving hand
在艺术家爱之手下减轻痛苦

Now I understand
现在我明白了
What you tried to say to me
你想对我说什么
And how you suffered for your sanity
你如何承受天才智慧的折磨
And how you tried to set them free
你如何试图解脱自己
They would not listen; they did not know how
他们从来不听,他们根本不知道
Perhaps they ll listen now
也许现在他们会听

For they could not love you
因为他们不能爱你
But still, your love was true
但你的爱是真挚的
And when no hope was left inside
当内心再也没有希望
On that starry, starry night
在布满星星的夜晚
You took your life as lovers often do
你像情人们常做的那样结束自己的生命
But I could ve told you, Vincent
我本应告诉你,文森特
This world was never meant for one as
beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can t forget
Like the strangers that you ve met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They did not listen they re not listening still
Perhaps they never will
