Book of longing 渴望之書
I can't make the hills我無能登上山丘 The system is shot身體已傾毀矣 I'm living on pills我生活倚靠藥丸 For which I thank G-d因此我感謝上帝
I followed the course我沿路前行 From chaos to art從混沌到藝術 Desire the horse慾望是馬 Depression the cart沮喪是車
I sailed like a swan我似天鵝優遊 I sank like a rock我如石塊沈落 But time is long gone可是時光悠悠荏苒 Past my laughing stock我累積的笑聲已沒
My page was too white我的紙太白 My ink was too thin我的墨太淡 The day wouldn't write白晝不願記載 What the night pencilled in黑夜寫下的名言
My animal howls我的野獸在嘶嗥 My angel's upset我的天使亂了心 But I'm not allowed可我不被允許 A trace of regret留下丁點的悔恨
For someone will use因為有人將擷取 What I couldn't be我無能成為的自己 My heart will be hers我的心將屬於她 Impersonally此事已注定
She'll step on the path她將步上那小徑 She'll see what I mean她將明白我所言 My will cut in half我的意志對半分 And freedom between而自由夾在中間
For less than a second再過不到一秒鐘 Our lives will collide吾等生命將成交會狀態 The endless suspended無盡成懸念 The door open wide心門已敞開
Then she will be born這時她將誕生 To someone like you為了某個神似的你 What no one has done沒人做過的事 She'll continue to do她將繼續做矣
I know she is coming我知道她要來了 I know she will look我知道她會訪尋 And that is the longing那就是渴望 And this is the book這就是書本
註:柯恩習以G-d代替God。為避免上帝(God)之名在形諸文字書寫後,遭人抹除、破壞,或塗改,虔誠猶太教徒會在書寫時,刻意將其改寫為G-d。
