Slouching Towards Bethlehem歌词

[00:00.000] 作词 : Joni Mitchell/William Butler Yeats
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Joni Mitchell
[00:25.990]Turning and turning
[00:30.230]Within the widening gyre
[00:34.740]The falcon cannot hear the falconer
[00:41.810]Things fall apart
[00:47.350]The center cannot hold
[00:51.260]And a blood dimmed tide
[00:54.760]Is loosed upon the world
[01:01.320]Nothing is sacred
[01:06.740]The ceremony sinks
[01:11.070]Innocence is drowned
[01:14.270]In anarchy
[01:17.890]The best lack conviction
[01:23.320]Given some time to think
[01:27.280]And the worst are full of passion
[01:29.970]Without mercy
[01:35.780]
[01:37.310]Surely some revelation is at hand
[01:42.680]Surely it's the second coming
[01:44.620]And the wrath has finally taken form
[01:48.220]For what is this rough beast
[01:51.000]Its hour come at last
[01:56.520]Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born
[02:02.850]Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born
[02:08.420]
[02:30.240]Hoping and hoping
[02:35.450]As if by my weak faith
[02:39.710]The spirit of this world
[02:42.460]Would heal and rise
[02:46.840]Vast are the shadows
[02:52.240]That straddle and strafe
[02:56.280]And struggle in the darkness
[02:59.630]Troubling my eyes
[03:03.730]
[03:06.240]Shaped like a lion
[03:11.680]It has the head of a man
[03:15.690]With a gaze as blank
[03:18.640]And pitiless as the sun
[03:22.720]And it's moving its slow thighs
[03:28.340]Across the desert sands
[03:32.350]Through dark indignant
[03:35.910]Reeling falcons
[03:39.950]
[03:42.270]Surely some revelation is at hand
[03:47.860]Surely it's the second coming
[03:51.620]And the wrath has finally taken form
[03:53.280]For what is this rough beast
[03:55.890]Its hour come at last
[04:01.550]Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born
[04:07.100]Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born
[04:12.390]
[04:35.370]Raging and raging
[04:40.640]It rises from the deep
[04:44.770]Opening its eyes
[04:47.810]After twenty centuries
[04:51.820]Vexed to a nightmare
[04:57.410]Out of a stony sleep
[05:01.050]By a rocking cradle
[05:03.840]By the Sea of Galilee
[05:11.190]Surely some revelation is at hand
[05:16.840]Surely it's the second coming
[05:18.710]And the wrath has finally taken form
[05:21.880]For what is this rough beast
[05:26.420]Its hour come at last
[05:30.480]Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born
[05:38.040]Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born
[05:52.980]To be born
[06:01.900]Shaped like a lion
[06:13.000]Shaped like a lion
[06:23.900]Shaped like a lion
[06:34.980]
