Chris De Burgh《A Spaceman Came Travelling》
《A Spaceman Came Travelling》(一个太空人来旅行)
演唱：Chris de Burgh
A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar,
'twas light years of time since his mission did start,
And over a village he halted his craft,
And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star...
He followed a light and came down to a shed,
Where a mother and a child were lying there on a bed,
A bright light of silver shone round his head,
And he had the face of an angle, and they were afraid...
Then the stranger spoke, he said 'Do not fear,
I come from a planet a long way from here,
And I bring a message for mankind to hear',
And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air...
And it went la, la...
Peace and goodwill to all men, and love for the child...
This lovely music went trembling through the ground,
And many were wakened on hearing that sound,
And travellers on the road, the village they found,
By the light of that ship in the sky, which shone all round...
And just before dawn at the paling of the sky,
The stranger returned and said 'Now I must fly,
When two thousand years of your time has gone by,
This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry...'
And it went la la... This song will begin once again
to a baby's cry...
And it goes la la... Peace and goodwill to all men
and love for the child...
Oh the whole world is waiting, waiting to hear that song again,
There are thousands standing on the edge of the world,
And a star is moving somewhere, the time is nearly here,
This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry...
外星人来访
一个外星人乘着太空船从远方来访
从 执行任务起，那已是好几光年以前
在一个村庄上空， 停住了太空船
像一颗星悬在空中
就像一颗星-----
随着亮光， 下降到一间小屋前
里面有位母亲和孩子睡在床上
的头上闪耀着明亮的银光
有着天使般的脸庞
但她们感到十分害怕-----
然後这位陌生人说话了
说" 别怕，
我来自离这里很远的星球
我给人类带来了讯息"
突然间，空中充满了甜美的音乐----
它唱着：啦啦-----
和平与好运给人们
爱给孩子们
美丽的音乐震动着大地
很多人听到音乐而醒来
路上的旅行者
循着天上太空船的光芒找到这个村庄
光芒照耀四周-----
天将破晓以前
天空出现白光
陌生人转身说："我得走了，
当你们的时间过了两千年，
这首歌将再度响起，从婴儿的哭声中--"
它唱着：啦啦----
这首歌将再度响起
从婴儿的哭声中----
它唱着：啦啦----
和平与好运给人们
爱给孩子们
噢，全世界都在期待
期待再次听见这首歌
成千上万的人们伫立在世界的边缘
有一颗星子正在移动
时刻即将到来
这首歌将再度响起
从婴儿的哭声中----

Where a mother and a child were lying there on a bed

And he had the face of an angel , And they were afraid
