[00:00.000] 作词 : Donovan
[00:01.490]I will bring you gold apples
[00:06.800]and grapes made of rubies
[00:11.100]That have shone in the eyes of
[00:16.400]a prince of the breeze.
[00:21.400]Bright cascading crystals,
[00:25.800]they danced in the sand dunes
[00:30.400]On the beach of no footprints
[00:35.400]to harpsichord tunes.
[00:40.400]A throne of white ivory,
[00:45.500]a gown of white lace
[00:50.000]Lies still in the magic
[00:54.500]of a timeless place.
[00:59.500]One hundred small children,
[01:04.500]they laugh at the white doves
[01:09.500]That rest on their hands
[01:13.500]with the touch of love.
[01:18.500]On a hillside of velvet
[01:23.500]the children they lay down
[01:28.500]And make fun of the grown-ups
[01:33.000]with their silly frown.
[01:37.600]And the sound of their laughter
[01:42.600]is the sound of the green sea
[01:47.500]As it washed around the foot of
[01:53.000]the seashell tree.
[02:18.000]The doves circle over
[02:22.500]and land in the trees
[02:27.500]Where parrots are talking
[02:32.200]their words with such ease.
[02:36.800]Thus spoke three wizards
[02:41.500]to the young ones that day:
[02:46.500]"There’s sadness in the kingdom,
[02:50.500]make it go far away."
[02:55.500]If you follow the sunbeams
[03:00.200]through the valley of flowers
[03:04.500]To the palace of the White Queen
[03:09.200]with its white jade towers.
[03:14.500]The youngest, she sighed then
[03:18.800]the clouds drew away
[03:23.700]And a hundred small fingers
[03:28.500]scratched their heads in dismay.
[03:33.900]From out of the sun a
[03:39.500]giant gull came flying
[03:43.900]And the children got ready
[03:49.000]to sit on its wings.
[03:54.500]They waved to the raindrops
[03:58.900]as they soared over the trees
[04:04.000]The wind tossed their hair high,
[04:08.800]flashing gold on the sea.
[04:24.600]They came to the castle
[04:29.400]and there they did fall,
[04:34.300]And they saw all the sadness,
[04:39.000]through the crystal wall.
[04:44.500]A princess lay a-sleeping
[04:48.800]so gentle and kind
[04:54.100]Whilst her prince took to battle
[04:58.500]with his confused mind.
[05:03.600]The clash of bright metal
[05:08.000]brought the children fear,
[05:12.700]But their cloaks of blue satin
[05:17.600]dried up all of these tears.
[05:27.600]Thus children held hands and
[05:32.500]they spelled out their name
[05:36.900]All the golden children
[05:41.600]became a golden chain.
[05:56.800]It lies on a white throne
[06:01.600]in a magic place
[06:06.000]With a tunic of velvet
[06:10.800]and a gown of white lace.
[06:26.600]My sword, it lies broken
[06:31.700]and cast in a lake
[06:36.300]In a dream I was told that
[06:41.500]my princess would wake.
