Like some night bird, homeward wingin' 像一些夜间的小鸟，归途wingin “

He seeks the sheltered nest 他寻求庇护的巢穴

Like the sailor's lost horizon 像水手的消失的地平线

He needs some place to rest 他需要一些休息的地方

The songs that he's been singin' 的歌曲，他一直在唱

No longer make much sense 不再是太大的意义

And those strangers' cold perceptions 而那些陌生人“冷看法

They've killed his confidence 他们已经杀死了他的信心

   

Nightingale 南丁格尔

She sails away upon a sea of song 她扬帆远在歌曲的海洋

Nightingale 南丁格尔

She serenades his lonely, lonely life along 她小夜曲他的孤独，寂寞以及生活

When his tired voice is broken 当他疲惫的声音被打破

His golden hope is gone 他金色的希望破灭

She makes a lost soul's simple longing 她弄得失去了灵魂的向往简单

Somehow not so wrong 不知怎的，没有错

He was strong, but he was taken 他很强壮，但他被带到

By the thought of his success 他的成功的想法

Those spotlight shadows, how they lured him 那些聚光灯下的阴影，他们怎么引诱他

And took him like all the rest 并把他像所有的休息

But that old dream don't look good now 但旧梦不看好现在

No, it don't seem quite the same 不，这似乎有点不一样

He needs to hear a tender word 他需要听到一个温柔的字

Won't you sing him home again 你会不会唱他回家了

She sails away upon a sea of song 她扬帆远在歌曲的海洋

Nightingale 南丁格尔

She serenades his lonely, lonely life along 她小夜曲他的孤独，寂寞以及生活

When his strength is slowly goin' 当他的实力是慢慢布莱恩

His pride is all but gone 他的骄傲几乎已不存在

She makes a foolish dreamer listen 她让一个愚蠢的梦想家听

To one last song 到最后一首歌
