A winter's day
寒冬腊月
In a deep and dark December;
在一个漆黑的夜里
I am alone
我独自一人
Gazing from my window to the streets below
站在窗边凝望楼下的街道
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
被一层厚厚的积雪所覆盖
I am a rock
我是一块岩石
I am an island
我是一座岛屿
I've built walls
我建起心墙
A fortress deep and mighty
建起无比坚固的堡垒
That none may penetrate
没有什么可以穿透它
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain
我不需要友谊 因为友谊带来伤痛
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
我鄙视欢乐和爱情
I am a rock
我是一块岩石
I am an island
我是一座岛屿
Don't talk of love
不要跟我提起爱情
But I've heard the words before;
很久以前我曾听过这个词
It's sleeping in my memory
它在我的记忆里沉睡
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
我不愿唤醒那些早已死去的感觉
If I never loved I never would have cried
我不曾爱过 我永远不会哭泣
I am a rock
我是一块岩石
I am an island
我是一座岛屿
I have my books
我拥有自己的书
And my poetry to protect me;
整日与诗歌为伴
I am shielded in my armor
我蜷缩在自己的盔甲里
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
躲藏在房间里 仿佛躲在妈妈的子宫里一样
I touch no one and no one touches me
我不愿接触任何人 也没人接触我
I am a rock
我是一块岩石
I am an island
我是一座岛屿
And a rock feels no pain;
石头不会感到痛苦
And an island never cries
岛屿永远不会哭泣
