Starry starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
繁星点点的夜晚
在你画板上涂抹了蓝和灰的油彩
在某个夏日里,你向外张望
双眸似可看穿我的灵魂
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land
你变幻山峦间的阴影
勾勒树林与水仙花
捕捉拂面清风和冬日寒冷
色彩幻化在雪白亚麻画布上
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
现在我终于知道
你想对我倾诉什么
众醉独醒,你有多么痛苦
众生愚愚,你有多想让他们自由
但那时他们不听,更不懂
也许,此时的他们想听了
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in vincent's eyes of china blue
繁星点点的夜晚
殷红的花儿,恍若燃烧的火焰
云卷云舒,笼罩着薄薄紫烟
映在文森特湛蓝色的双眸
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
色彩幻化万千
黎明的田野,琥珀色的麦穗
和那饱受风霜的脸
在文森特手中缓缓流出
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
现在我终于知道
你想对我倾诉什么
众醉独醒,你有多么痛苦
众生愚愚,你有多想让他们自由
但那时他们不听,更不懂
也许,此时的他们想听了
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you Vincent
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
尽管他们不曾爱过你
但是你依然真情切切
但当希望日渐消逝,终究不敌岁月
在一个同样繁星点点的夜晚
你决定结束自己的生命,就像其他热恋着的人经常做的那样
假如我在,文森特,我会对你说
俗世红尘,命中注定不可能拥有,你这般美好的人儿
Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
繁星点点的夜晚
你的自画像,挂在一个个空荡的展厅中
无框的头像,悬在一面面不知名的墙上
恳恳的双眸注视着这世界,令人无法忘却
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virginsnow
如你曾经际遇过的每个陌生人
那些失魂的看客 挣扎在褴褛衣衫里
血色玫瑰上银色荆棘的刺
被摧折粉碎,化作尘埃飘向初雪的大地……
Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They will not listen they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will
现在我终于知道
你想对我倾诉什么
众醉独醒,你有多么痛苦
众生愚愚,你有多想让他们自由
但那时他们不听,现在仍不得悟
也许,他们永远不会

眸中洞悉我灵魂中的黑(With eyes that know the darkness in my soul)
山上的阴魅(Shadows on the hills)
勾勒树林与花蕊(Sketch the trees and the daffodils)
清风寒气凉如水(Catch the breeze and the winter chills)
雪白画布上晕染了苍翠(In colors on the snowy linen land)
终于能体会(Now I understand)
渴望诉说的伤悲(What you tried to say to me)
唯你独醒众人皆沉睡(And how you suffered for your sanity)
你想开启他心扉(And how you tried to set them free)
他们不愿听(They would not listen)
他们听不懂 (They did not know how)
现在也许会(Perhaps they’ll listen now)
今夜星如醉(Starry, starry night)
火红花儿多明媚(Flaming flowers that brightly blaze)
风起云动紫烟飞(Swirling clouds and violet haze)
映出眸中你湛蓝的眼泪(Reflecting Vincent‘s eyes of china blue)
丹青入精微(Colours changing hue)
黎明田野麦如水(Morning fields of amber grain)
饱经风霜人憔悴(Weathered faces lined in pain)
妙手一挥你用爱去抚慰(Are soothed beneath the artists’ loving hand)
终于能体会(Now I understand)
渴望诉说的伤悲(What you tried to say to me)
唯你独醒众人皆沉睡(And how you suffered for your sanity)
你想开启他心扉(And how you tried to set them free)

他们听不懂(They did not know how)
现在也许会(Perhaps they‘ll listen now)
无人能够爱你(For they could not love you)
而你情真不悔(But still your love was true)
当所有希望都化成灰(And when no hope was left inside)
那夜繁星都如醉(On that starry, starry night)
你如恋人般自尽永不回(You took your life as lovers often do)
但我要对你说,文森特(But I could have told you Vincent)
这世界从来不配拥有你这动人的美(This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you)
今夜星如醉(Starry starry night)
寂寞楼台客已归(Portraits hung in empty halls)
画像空悬烛成泪(Frameless heads on nameless walls)
凝望世界你双眼仍慈悲(With eyes that watch the world and can't forget)
而今物是人已非(Like the strangers that you’ve met)
衣衫褴褛岁月摧(The ragged men in ragged clothes)
银刺空绕红玫瑰(The silver thorn of bloody rose)
遍地白雪中身心已破碎(Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow)
终于能体会(Now I think I know)
渴望诉说的伤悲(What you tried to say to me)
唯你独醒众人皆沉睡(And how you suffered for your sanity)
你想开启他心扉(And how you tried to set them free)
他们不愿听(They would not listen)
他们没在听(They‘re not listening still)
也许永不会(Perhaps they never will)
上述译文我用在了我的长篇小说《蝶幻——命运的一千种可能》中(这首歌与小说的意境和气氛非常契合,几乎就是为这部小说订制的),豆瓣阅读、亚马逊(kindle)、京东、掌阅(iReader)、华为书城上搜索“蝶幻”或“角木蛟”可见,欢迎阅读点评!
除了Don McLean的原唱版本,我还喜欢Chloe Agnew版和王若琳版。
