们对它的认识始于30年代中期,那时他正化名Little Boy Blue,在三角洲地区流浪,与其他布鲁斯传奇人物如Robert Johnson、Robert Nighthawk、Robert Jr.Lockwood、Elmore James等结伴在小酒吧、乡间聚会、球赛等场合演出。
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping我看着你 沉睡的爱情
While my guitar gently weeps我的吉他呜咽
I look at the floor and I see it need sweeping我看着地 一片的狼藉
Still my guitar gently weeps我的琴声呜咽
I don't know why nobody told you我不知为何 无人告诉你
how to unfold your love怎样敞开心扉
I don't know how someone controlled you我不知为何 他们控制你
they bought and sold you任你变卖流离
I look at the world and I notice it's turning我看这世界 瞬息万变
While my guitar gently weeps我的吉他呜咽
With every mistake we must surely be learning从每个错误 吸取教训
Still my guitar gently weeps我的琴声呜咽
I don't know how you were diverted我不知如何 你变了心意
you were perverted too还自甘堕落
I don't know how you were inverted我不知如何 你改变自己
no one alerted you无人警告你
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping我看着你 沉睡的爱情
While my guitar gently weeps我的吉他呜咽
I look at you all我看着你
Still my guitar gently weeps我的琴声呜咽
( I look from the wings at the play you are staging我注视 自舞台边 你光华四射While my guitar gently weeps我的吉他呜咽As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging我静坐 时光飞逝 任年华老去Still my guitar gently weeps我的琴声呜咽 ) ——此段括号中的歌词来自harrison的原始版本,“白专”中的歌曲并无此段。
