On a quiet night 在一个宁静的夜晚

You can hear the rustling of the leaves 你可以听到树叶的沙沙声

On a quiet night 在一个宁静的夜晚

Distant voices carry softly in the breeze 遥远的声音轻轻地携带在微风中

   

And I'm inside my room 我为我的房间里

Captured in a moment's thought 捕获片刻的思考

Strumming on a chord from my guitar 拨弄着从我的吉他和弦

Silently, silently (silently) 默默地，默默地（默默）

So silently (so silently) 于是默默的（这样默默）

   

On a quiet night 在一个宁静的夜晚

Time hangs heavy in the air just like a cloud 时间重挂在空中，就像一朵云

I'm lying on my bed 我躺在我的床上

Scratching my head, wondering what it's about 抓我的头，想知道它是关于

   

Are we all minstrels 难道我们所有的吟游诗人

Playing in a three-ring circus 玩三环马戏团

Searching for a purpose that's not there 寻找一个目的，那就是不存在

Silently, silently (silently) 默默地，默默地（默默）

So silently (so silently, so silently, so silently) 于是默默的（这样默默地，默默地这样，所以默默）

   

Everybody's thinking 每个人的思维

Gotta get ahead, gotta get ahead 总得向前跑，得让未来

Everybody's drinking 每个人的饮酒

Hurrying, worrying, playing the game 匆匆，令人担忧，在玩游戏

All acting the same 所有作用相同

As I look out through my windowpane 当我看的出来，通过我的窗玻璃

   

On a quiet night 在一个宁静的夜晚

The wind, it can play tricks on your ear 风，它可以在你的耳朵上做手脚

Like some unsolved mystery 像一些未解之谜

We all guess at the ending, but nobody comes near 大家都在猜测的结局，但没有人来到附近

   

Are we all minstrels 难道我们所有的吟游诗人

Playing in a three-ring circus 玩三环马戏团

Searching for a purpose that's not there 寻找一个目的，那就是不存在

Silently, silently (silently) 默默地，默默地（默默）

So silently (so silently, so silently, so silently) 于是默默的（这样默默地，默默地这样，所以默默）
