In our days we will live 在我们的日子里，我们将生活

Like our ghosts will live... 就像我们的鬼将生活...

Pitching glass at the cornfield crows 在玉米地里的乌鸦投球玻璃

And folding clothes 和折叠衣服

   

Like stubborn boys across the road 就像马路对面的倔强男孩

We'll keep everything... 我们会保留一切...

Grandma's gun and the black bear claw 奶奶的枪，黑熊爪

That took her dog 这花了她的狗

   

When sister Laurie says, "Amen" 当姐姐劳瑞说，“阿门”

We won't hear anything... 我们不会听到任何声音......

The ten-car trains will take that word 在10节车厢的列车将采取这个词

That fledgling bird 那个初出茅庐的鸟

   

And the fallen house across the way 而对面的房子倒下

It'll keep everything... 它会保留一切...

The baby's breath 宝宝的呼吸

Our bravery wasted and our shame 我们的勇气，而我们在耻辱

   

And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire 我们会火的灰烬旁边脱衣服

Both our tender bellies wound in baling wire 我们两个招标肚子缠绕绑丝

All the more a pair of underwater pearls 所有的更多的是对海底的珍珠

Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern 比橡树和蕨类植物的复活

   

In our days we will say 在我们的日子里，我们会说：

What our ghosts will say... 我们什么鬼会说...

We gave the world what it saw fit 我们给了世界什么它认为合适的

And what'd we get? 和什么了，我们得到什么？

   

Like stubborn boys with big green eyes 像倔强的男孩绿色的大眼睛

We'll see everything... 我们将看到的一切......

In the tender shade of the autumn leaves 在叶秋的温柔树荫

And the buzzard's wing 和鹰的翅膀

   

And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire 我们会火的灰烬旁边脱衣服

Our tender bellies are wound around in baling wire 我们招标的肚子都在绑丝缠绕

All the more a pair of underwater pearls 所有的更多的是对海底的珍珠

Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern 比橡树和蕨类植物的复活
