The Well－珍妮佛·沃恩斯

风有起时

《The Well》

---Shine Dion

By an old drinking well on the grass so green

古井醉人，草儿青青

I lay down and fell into a dream

我侧身而卧,渐入梦乡

By a strange mellow sound from a silver eyed bird

一声熟稔而奇特的声音，是银眸的鸟儿掠过

I opened my eyes but said no word

我睁开眼眸，脉脉无言

On the pathway came walking a woman so bold

女人渐行渐近，身影越来越清晰

Behind her in silence went the old

身后，流年静静

Ahead ran the children with joyful cries

迎面而来的孩子，奔跑嬉戏着

Their faces were lifted to the skies

洋溢的欢笑飞了天际

The woman's hair was raven and black as the night

女人的发，黑如夜

Covered with stars shining bright

熠熠如星

As they passed by the well I saw that their eyes

当他们游过古井,我瞧着他们的双眸

Were flaming like many coloured ice

如冰凌的七彩绚烂的光芒

They passed by the well like a breeze pure and clean

他们路经这古井,如一股微风,纯净清新

Soon they were nowhere to be seen

随即，便再不见踪影

When I woke up alone on the grass so green

当我独自从梦中醒来,草儿依然青翠

I looked into the well to catch the dream

凝望这深邃的井，伸手，想抓住梦境

The water was rising and I felt a chill

井水幽幽，一阵凉意

I willed the water to be still

井水如镜

There was a face in the mirror like a face out of time

倒映在水里的脸庞,恍如隔世

The eyes held a shimmery shine

眼睛依然闪烁着光芒

嘻嘻

井，在一项心理测试里，是家的环境与氛围的象征......

宁静

看见一口枯井，我会想起一个人。
