英文
Windflowers
Seals & Crofts
Windflowers, windflowers
My father told me not to go near them
He said he feared them always
And he told me that they carried him away
Windflowers, beautiful windflowers
I couldn't wait to touch them
To smell them I held them closely
And now I cannot break away
Their sweet bouquet disappears
Like the vapor in the desert
So take a warning, son
Windflowers, ancient windflowers
Their beauty captures every young dreamer
Who lingers near them
But ancient windflowers,
I love you.
参考译文
银莲花
西尔斯&克罗夫
银莲花,银莲花,
父亲告诫我说,不要靠近它。
他说他总有些害怕,
还对我说,它们曾使他不能自拔。
银莲花,美丽的银莲花,
我禁不住靠上前
紧紧捧着它,轻闻其香。
如今我已无法自拔,
芬芳的花束宛如水汽般
在沙漠中蒸发。
所以,孩子,听句劝告吧!
银莲花,古老的银莲花,
它的美丽迷惑了每一位
年轻的追梦人,
令他们徘徊不舍。
但是我爱你,
古老的银莲花。
