Paroles et traduction 陳昇 - 賣田

賣田

自從七叔走了以後 就沒有人再提起那塊毫不起眼的田地
那田本來就是要種莊稼的 你們儘圖個什麼勁
爺爺説你先把門給掩上了 我來說個故事給你聽
濁水溪的水源頭 埋藏在鬼魅般的雲霧裡
我問你那裡來的呀 你取了名字你沒有改了姓
你吃了莿仔埤養的稻米 你喝了黑泥漿洗的水
你別信了掌權的人說 英明的人出了好價錢
土地上長出了煙囱 爺們窮到只剩下了錢
真想喝杯酒啊 在從不下雨的南溪州
蛙鳴埋葬在高牆之下 掩在霧霾裡的文明
七叔你不要回頭啊 在從不懺悔的南溪州
良心埋葬在情欲之下 真不知道該如何去對以後的人説
自從七叔走了以後 再也沒有見過那老欺負孩子的陳老師
聽說他去了村子的那一頭 種了一園子火紅的鳳凰花
花間裡隱藏了許多的秘密 陳老師的故事最神奇
而我們最愛的校花 她嫁去了美利堅
別問我哪裡來的呀 換了個名字我沒有改了姓
你愛上了城的鳳凰 你喝了西方來的黑牌
你別信了城裡的人說 掌權的人比你聰明
土地上長出了煙囱 爺們苦澀的回憶著從前
老天爺啊它不哭泣 在從不下雨的南溪州
白雲躱藏在紫霧之外 掩在謊言裡的文明
老師你不要回頭啊 在從不下雨的南溪州
秘密埋藏在溫柔的心裡 永遠不會說出去
自從爺爺走了以後 就沒有人再覬覦那塊毫不起眼的田地
那田本來就要種莊稼的 你們盡圖個什麼勁
孩子先把門給掩上了 我來說些故事給你聽
濁水溪的水源頭 住著會唱歌的祖靈
都問你那裡來的啊 你換了個名字你甚至也改了姓
你吃了爺爺親手種的稻米 你喝了母親河流淌的奶水
你別信了掌權的人說 英明的人會給你好價錢
土地上長出了煙囱 爺爺死也不賣的田
真想喝杯酒啊 在晴朗如洗的南溪州
祖墳已埋葬在高牆之下 走在紫色沙塵裡的人民
爺爺你不要回頭啊 在從不懺悔的南溪州
良田埋葬在貪欲之下 真不知道該如何去對以後的人說
七叔你不要回頭

Selling the Field

Since Uncle Seven left, no one has mentioned that unremarkable piece of land again
The land was meant for growing crops, what are you all so excited about?
Grandfather said you should close the door first, I'll tell you a story
The source of the ZHUOSHUI River is shrouded in spooky clouds
I ask you where you're from, you changed your given name but not your surname
You ate the rice cultivated in CIZIPI, drank the water cleansed from the black mud
Don't believe what the authorities say, the wise men offered a good price
Chimneys grew from the land, men were so poor that all they had left was money
I really want to have a drink in NANCHIZHOU where it never rains
Frogs' croaks are buried under the tall walls, a civilization hidden in the smog
Uncle Seven, don't look back, in NANCHIZHOU where there's never any remorse
Conscience is buried under desires, I have no idea how to tell the future generations
Since Uncle Seven left, I've never seen Mr. Chen, the teacher who always bullied children, again
I heard he went to the other end of the village and planted a garden full of fiery phoenix flowers
Many secrets are hidden among the flowers, Mr. Chen's story is the most magical
And our beloved school belle, she married someone in America
Don't ask me where I'm from, I changed my given name but not my surname
You fell in love with the phoenix in the city, you drank the famous black label from the west
Don't believe what the city folks say, the authorities are not smarter than you
Chimneys grew from the land, men bitterly recalled the past
Oh heavens, why don't you weep, in NANCHIZHOU where it never rains
White clouds are hidden beyond the purple fog, a civilization hidden in lies
Teacher, don't look back, in NANCHIZHOU where it never rains
Secrets are buried in tender hearts, never to be told
Since Grandfather left, no one has coveted that unremarkable piece of land again
The land was meant for growing crops, what are you all so excited about?
Child, close the door first, I'll tell you some stories
The source of the ZHUOSHUI River is home to singing ancestors
Everyone asks where you're from, you changed your given name and even your surname
You ate the rice grown by your grandfather's own hands, you drank the milk that flowed from the river that is your mother
Don't believe what the authorities say, the wise men will give you a good price
Chimneys grew from the land, the land that Grandfather refused to sell even until his death
I really want to have a drink in NANCHIZHOU where the skies are crystal clear
The ancestral tombs are buried under the tall walls, the people walking in the purple sand
Grandfather, don't look back, in NANCHIZHOU where there's never any remorse
Good land is buried under greed, I have no idea how to tell the future generations
Uncle Seven, don't look back
