諾拉郭玖思

Almost human 近乎人性


What did I ever do to you
That you should treat me this way?
Is it really such a crime
For an angel to speak his mind?
Anytime I'll try to shed some light
If I were a big boy
I wouldn't cry
But since I'm not a big boy
I'll have to cry
我哪裡惹到你
讓你必須這樣對我？
難道這真的算犯罪
只因一個天使說出他的思維？
我會試著及時灑落些光輝
如果我是個大男孩就不會哭
但既然我不是個大男孩
到時後我還是會哭

What did I ever do so wrong
That you should cast me from grace
Though I love to rule in Hell here
How I miss the taste of Heaven
Its soft and cool embrace
If I were a big boy
I wouldn't cry
But since I'm not a big boy
I'll have to close my eyes
And picture what it's like
我犯了甚麼大罪
讓你得將我從恩典中驅逐？
雖然我也滿愛在這統治地府
我多懷念天堂的滋味
它柔軟清涼的懷抱
如果我是個大男孩就不會哭
但既然我不是個大男孩
我得闔上雙眼
描繪天堂的模樣

I'm just like you
I'm made by He
Despised by they
I'm almost me
I'm nearly human
Look at me
I'm almost a human being
我跟你一樣
我是祂的造物
被他們鄙視
我差不多就是我
我很像人啊看看我
我幾乎要是人類了

I'm just like you
I'm made by He
Despised by they
I'm almost me
I'm nearly human
Pity me
I'm almost a human being
我跟你一樣
我是祂的造物
被他們鄙視
我差不多就是我
我幾乎就是人了
可憐我，我幾乎要是人類了

I still remember your light
And it was streaming down
And burning out my eyes
If I were a big boy
I wouldn't cry
But since I'm not a big boy
I'll have to close my eyes
And picture what it's like
我還記得祢的光輝
它傾瀉而下
燒灼我的眼
如果我是個大男孩就不會哭
但既然我不是個大男孩
我得闔上雙眼
描繪天堂的模樣

I'm just like you
I'm made by He
Despised by they
I'm almost me
I'm nearly human
Look at me
I'm almost a human being
我跟你一樣
我是祂的造物
被他們鄙視
我差不多就是我
我很像人啊看看我
我幾乎要是人類了

These tears are real
I'm jealousy
I'm spite and hate
To the core I'm mean
I'm nearly human
Look at me
I'm almost a human being
眼淚是真實的
我忌妒、我唾棄我恨死了
我卑劣到骨子裡
我很像人啊看看我
我幾乎要是人類了

I'm just like you
Better than He
To Hell with they
I'm almost me
I'm nearly human
Pity me
I'm almost a human being
我跟你一樣，
比祂更好，
跟他們一起下地獄。
我差不多就是我。
我幾乎就是人了，
可憐我，我幾乎要是人類了。

Don't touch me, oh
I couldn't bear the thought of it, now
Don't touch me, oh
I couldn't bear the strain
Don't touch me, oh
I couldn't bear the thought of it, now
Touch me
Touch me
Touch me
Don't touch me
Touch me
Touch me
別碰我，噢
現在我連想都不敢想
別碰我，噢
我受不了這力量
別碰我，噢
現在我連想都不敢想
碰我
碰我
碰我
別碰我
碰我
碰我

[翻譯筆記]

喜歡這種把第三人稱故事中的角色用第一人稱表現的歌，頗有些翻案的味道。這樣哭哭的撒旦有點可愛啊！

● 想必這裡的"I"是指撒旦，他因為不滿上帝獨厚人類而帶領一群天使反叛，最後被丟下地獄。
● Big boy直翻是大男孩，意思其實是大人。基於這首歌裡面撒旦就像是犯錯被罰的小屁孩一樣，邊鬧邊偷偷擦眼淚，所以就直翻了;P
● Almost, nearly那些其實覺得翻得不好，越簡短的東西越難抓到意思ˊˋ
● 至於為甚麼選這MV呢，只因(不知道遇到甚麼是情結果變成)純粹為搗亂而倒亂的joker跟Satan有點像, 表情和歌詞對起來太有趣XD
