"Eversleeping"是德国美声金属乐团Xandria最有名的歌曲之一，优雅的钢琴声衬托出主唱Lisa深情的歌声：即使耗尽一生去追逐也在所不惜的爱。对于那些针对在哥特金属表演中的女性的令人迷惑的标准，Lisa不试图去遵守，她的每一个声音都发自于乐音与自己感情的共鸣中。那多变而完美的吟唱，即便称不上幽雅，但她与我们分享的是她内心真实的倾诉。
我曾为寻找我爱，远涉七海
Once I travelled seven seas to find my love
也曾吟唱千百歌谣
and once I sang 700 songs
好吧，也许我仍然需要跋涉千里
well, maybe I still have to walk 7000 miles
直到我找到此心安处
until I find the one that I belong
我将与永夜中的他同寝共枕
I will rest my head side by side to the one that stays in the night
我将在我最后的悲伤中停止呼吸
I will lose my breath in my last words of sorrow
无论何种因果如期而来
and whatever comes will come soon
待我消亡之时，我会向明月祈祷
dying I will pray to the moon
但愿明天，喜乐平安
that there once will be a better tomorrow
我曾为寻找我爱，横渡七河
once I crossed seven rivers to find my love
也曾一度忘记自己的姓名
and once, for seven years, I forgot my name
好吧，如果我不得不为之九死
well, if I have to I will die seven deaths just to lie
我也会长眠于永眠之梦
in the arms of my eversleeping aim
我将与永夜中的他同寝共枕
I will rest my head side by side to the one that stays in the night
我将在我最后的悲伤中停止呼吸
I will lose my breath in my last words of sorrow
无论何种因果如期而来
and whatever comes will come soon
待我消亡之际，我会向明月祈祷
dying I will pray to the moon
但愿明天，喜乐平安
that there once will be a better tomorrow
我愿栖息于永眠中的她的身旁
I will rest my head side by side to the one that stays in the night
我将在我最后的悲伤中停止呼吸
i will lose my breath in my last words of sorrow
无论何种因果如期而来
and whatever comes will come soon
待我消亡之际，我要向明月祈祷
dying i will pray to the moon
但愿明天，喜乐平安
that there once will be a better tomorrow
昨夜梦中，他来到我身边，
i dreamt last night that he came to me
他说：我的挚爱，你为何哭泣
he said: my love, why do you cry?
为此 人生不再渺茫而全无期望
for now it won't be long any more
直至我们同衾共裘 于冰冷的坟墓
Until in my cold grave we will lie
歌词：Well, maybe I still have to walk 7000 miles until I find the one that I belong.

Belong表示“属于”，通常与介词 to 连用。如：

Belong to可引申指“是……的成员”。如：
What party do you belong to? 你是属于哪个党派的?
Do you belong to the tennis club? 你是网球俱乐部的吗?
Belong还可以表示适合在某处或放在某处，其后可根据情况选用不同的介词（如 in, on, under等）或接副词。如：
Where does this belong? 它应放在哪儿呢?
The book belongs on that shelf. 这本书应放在那个架子上。
This chair belongs in the living room. 这把椅子应放在起居室里。
歌词：I will rest my head side by side to the one that stays in the night
我将与永夜中的他同寝共枕。
Rest是个多义词，名词和动词词性都具备，可以表示“休息”，例如：
You look tired. You need a good rest.
你看来累了。你需要好好休息一下。
Rest还可以表示“剩余的部分”。例如：
Some agree with John, but the rest of us agree with Sam.
有些人赞成约翰，但其余的人都赞成萨姆。
Rest也有“支撑”的意思。比如：

Lose breath通常表示“气喘吁吁、上气不接下气”。
If you run very fast, you may lose your breath.

他说出了临终遗言后闭了上眼睛。
Last words还有最终的决定的意思。
His wife always gets in the last word on everything.
凡事最後的决定权总是掌握在他太太手上。 |
