Carved In Stone——心灵之森

Between coloured trees she did wander alone
她在色彩斑斓的树木间行走
and felt the cold rain from above.
感到上面落下了冰冷的雨水
Again it was autumn, again she was sad
“又到秋天了，”她说，“又到了。”
and dreamed about shelter and love.
畅想着她的爱和归宿
She heard the crows croaking, listened to their cries,
她听着乌鸦的鸣叫，听着它们的诉说
the lovely sweet melancholy.
那份甜蜜的惆怅
She smiled at the cold breeze that played in her hair
她在寒风中微笑着，捋了捋头发
and so she passed by silently
然后无声地走着
...silently...
无声地.........

As if she had followed a voice in her soul,
她似乎听到了一个来自灵魂的声音
she entered the heart of the wood.
她进入森林的深处
She rose her face slowly and looked at the might,
她慢慢抬起头，向上凝望
that surrounded the clearing where she stood.
但她发现周围什么也没有
She opened her mouth, but no word would come out;
她张开嘴，却说不出一个字
her words were the tears in her eyes.
她的话语全含在她的泪水里了
Beholding such beauty, how worthless she felt,
虽然生得美貌，但她觉得豪无意义
oh, even too worthless to cry
哦，甚至哭泣都是徒劳的
...oh, to cry...
甚至哭泣..........

And just like a vision, a small ray of light
这在这时，像是一个幻象，一道闪亮的光
in front of her face did appear.
出现在她的面前
Then she heard the footsteps, and through tear-filled eyes
然后她听到了脚步声，她透过湿润的双眼望去
she saw a young man coming near.
她看到一个男子走来
The crows croaked above him, the sweet drops of rain
乌鸦在他上方叫着，而那雨点
like jewels lay in his dark hair
像珠子一样顺着他的黑发流下来
that blew in the wind, that stroke his white cheek
它们在风中飞舞，击打着他的脸颊
and his noble face pale and fair
他的面容有些苍白，有些美丽
...pale and fair...
有些苍白，有些美丽........

"I greet thee, fair maiden.", he said, and she knew
“你好，我的淑女。”，他说，她知道
that she had heard his voice before.
她曾经听过他的声音
The road to the clearing, the heart of the wood,
小路通向远方，森林的内心
his warm voice has shown her the door.
他温暖的声音让她敞开心扉
It had been the calling deep inside her soul
那曾是来自她内心深处的呼唤
and her soulmate was now by her side.
如今她曾经的爱人，又回到她身边
"My true love", he said, "let this wood be thy home."
“我的真爱啊”，他说，“就让这森林做我们的家。”
...and there she did stay as his bride...
...从此她留了下来，成了他的妻子
...as his bride...
他的妻子......

很干净的声音！
