A Thousand Years
A thousand years, a thousand more
A thousand times a million doors to eternity 1
I may have lived a thousand lives, a thousand times
An endless turning stairway climbs
To a tower of souls
If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars,
The towers rise to numberless floors in space
I could shed another million tears, a million breaths,
A million names but only one truth to face
A million roads, a million fears
A million suns, ten million years of uncertainty 2
I could speak a million lies, a million songs,
A million rights, a million wrongs in this balance of time
But if there was a single truth, a single light
A single thought, a singular touch of grace
Then following this single point , this single flame,
The single haunted memory of your face
I still love you
I still want you
A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
Like galaxies 3 in my head
I may be numberless, I may be innocent
I may know many things, I may be ignorant
Or I could ride with kings and conquer many lands
Or win this world at cards and let it slip my hands
I could be cannon 4 food, destroyed a thousand times
Reborn as fortune's child to judge another's crimes
Or wear this pilgrim's cloak, or be a common thief
I've kept this single faith, I have but one belief
I still love you
I still want you
A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves
Like galaxies in my head
On and on the mysteries unwind themselves
Eternities still unsaid,
Until you love me
一千年乃至更多年
无数次穿越
千万扇大门通向来生
也许拥有一千次不同的生命
无数次
繁衍出一条
蜿蜒通向灵魂塔屋没有尽头的阶梯
如果需要经历多一次一千年
甚至一千场战争
灵魂塔屋升至
无穷的高度
我会淌下无数滴泪水
发出无数声叹息,留下无数个姓名
却往往只有一个坚贞的信念
百万条大道,百万份敬畏的感觉
百万个太阳
千百年对真理的追寻
我可以说出百万句谎言
唱出百万首歌
在时间的流淌中
对上无数次或错上无数次
但是如果这世间只有一个真理存在
一束美丽的光彩
一种刻骨的思念
一份对美的不寻常感触
那么追随这唯一的出发点
一处发光的火花
以及环绕心头的你的音容笑貌
我还是那样爱你
依然深深需要你
千万次
这些奇妙的感觉涌现出来
有如星光般照耀着我
我也许平凡
也许天真
也许博学
也许无知
也许我会追随帝王
征服疆土无数
也许游戏人生
让岁月从我的指间滑出
也许成为大炮的火药
尽情摧毁一切
也许成为命运之子
评判别人的对与错
也许是穿着斗篷的朝圣者
又或者仅仅只是一个济济无名的偷儿
但我坚守我的信念
独一无二的信念
我还是那样爱你
依然深深需要你
千万次
这些奇妙的感觉涌现出来
有如星光般照耀着我
逐渐
我越来越清楚
来世仍然是未知数
直到你爱上我
《A thousand year》收录于《Unity -2004雅典奥运官方专辑》中,这首歌曲的演唱者Sting(斯汀)被当今乐坛冠以诗人歌手的美名,凭借那独一无二的沙哑又不失细腻的嗓音,始终如自由不羁的云,荡漾于缈缈的空中。
Sting的独唱事业开始于The Police解散前的1982年,1985年,Sting出版了首张个人专辑《蓝海龟之梦》,相比之下,这张专辑的歌词显得比The Police时期的作品更富智慧。这张专辑中还有“爱他就给他自由”、“心的要塞”和“俄国人”等多首歌畅销一时。
从80年代末开始,Sting经常涉足政界,用进行巡回演出的款项来资助印第安人争取生活的自由。进入90年代以来,Sting多次获得葛莱美大奖,成为全球最有影响的艺人之一。
