7. How Many Hours  多少岁月

Mothers giving birth to a little son

crying in the rain of falling bombs

Father he is young but deep and wise

You see the fighter inside his eyes

母亲生下小孩

在弹雨中哭泣

父亲是年轻而深沉和聪慧

你看到他眼中的怒火

 

Hold me cover my sight

This is no paradise

Dont show me the evil sides of the world

让我遮盖我的视线

这里没有伊甸园

不要让我看到这个世界罪恶的一面

 

Chorus:

How many hours and how many days

love is just slipping away

How many seasons and how many years in tears

How many centuries and how many lives in fear

多少小时和多少日子

爱已经远走

眼泪中多少季节和多少年度

恐惧中多少世纪和多少生活

 

People selling flowers like nothing's going on

turning their backs on a world gone wrong

Children play around I guess they found some wheels

You see them running down the naked fields

人们好像虚无的卖鲜花

背对着一个错误的世界

我猜小孩玩耍中找到一些轮子

你看他们跑下了那空旷的田野

 

精彩片段和评价:

也是一个反战歌曲,这个歌曲曲调缓慢,基本上没有多大的变化。正如一个人在思考时候娓娓道来一样,是一个控诉。同样,这样也有涉及到小孩,在很多歌曲里面小孩是代表希望,这里也是。曾经有过和平,为什么现在没有?!

歌词从hoursdaysseasonsyearscenturies,时间长度上不断延伸。
