-Paul Simon 保羅西蒙&加芬克爾
I"d rather be a sparrow than a snail
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would, hm-m
I"d rather be a hammer than a nail
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would, hm-m
Away, I"d rather sail away
Like a swan that"s here and gone
A man gets tied up to the ground
He gives the world its saddest sound
Its saddest sound
I"d rather be a forest than a street
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
I"d rather feel the earth beneath my feet
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would
譯文如下:
我寧願是一隻麻雀而不願是一隻蝸牛
是的,我寧願如此.
如果我能,我當然願意
我寧願是一把鐵錘而不願是根釘子
是的,我寧願如此.
如果我只能這樣,我當然願意
遠遠地,我寧願飛向遠方,
就像一隻天鵝,四處悠遊
人被地面束縛著,
