Gilbert O'Sullivan - Alone Again (Naturally)
In a little while from now,
지금으로부터 시간이 좀 지난 후에도
If I′m not feeling any less sour
이 맛이 간 기분이 조금도 줄지 않는다면
I promised myself to treat myself
난 스스로를 혼내기로 다짐했어
And visit a nearby tower,
그리고 가까운 탑에 가서
And climbing to the top,
꼭대기 까지 올라 간 다음
Will throw myself off In an effort to make it clear to whoever what it′s like when you're shattered
누구에게든지 당신이 산산조각이 나는 게 어떤 건지 분명하게 하기 위해 나를 던져버릴거야
Left standing in the lurch, at a church
교회에 남아 휘청거리고 서 있으면
Where people are saying
사람들은 말해
'My God that's tough, she stood him up, No point in us remaining, May as well go home'
주님도 너무하시지, 그녀가 그를 버렸어, 우리로선 방법이 없어, 집에 가는 편이 낫겠어.
As I did on my own
나 혼자 그랬던 것처럼
Alone again, naturally
다시 혼자야, 자연스레
To think that only yesterday
어제까지만 해도 난 그랬어
I was cheerful, bright and gay
난 쾌활했고 밝고 화사했지
Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do The role I was about to play
내가 늘 해오던 역할을 기대해 봤자, 아무도 그렇게 하지 않았고
But as if to knock me down Reality came around
오히려 날 쓰러트리기 위한 것처럼 현실이 내게 다가왔어
And without so much as a mere touch Cut me into little pieces
그리고 그리 대단하지도 않은 가벼운 터치만으로 나를 여러 조각으로 찢어버리며
Leaving me to doubt
날 의문에 빠뜨렸어
All about God and His mercy
모든 건 주님의 자비에 관한 거야
For if He really does exist Why did He desert me In my hour of need?
만약 정말 그가 존재 한다면 왜 날 내가 필요로 할 땐 나를 저버리는 거지?
I truly am indeed Alone again, naturally
난 정말 확실하게도 다시 혼자야, 자연스레
It seems to me that There are more hearts Broken in the world That can't be mended Left unattended
세상에는 고쳐질 수 도 없고 돌보는 사람도 없는 마음에 상처를 받은 사람이 분명 더 많이 있는 것처럼 보여 (hearts Broken은 주로 실연을 뜻합니다)
What do we do? What do we do?
우린 뭘 해야 해?
Alone again naturally
다시 혼자야, 자연스레
Now looking back over the year And what ever else that appears
자 지난 몇 년 간을 돌이켜 생각해보며, 또 어떤 일들이 있었냐며는
I remember I cried when my father died Never wishing to hide the tears
난 우리 아버지가 돌아가셨을 때 눈물을 감출 수 도 없이 울었던 게 생각나
And at sixty five years old My mother, God rest her soul
그리고 어머니는 65세 셨어, 주님께서 영혼에 평온을 주시기를
Couldn't understand, why the only man She had ever loved had been taken
난 왜 그녀가 평생 사랑한 유일한 사람을 대려 가시는지,
Leaving her to start with a heart So badly broken
그녀에게 너무 크게도 상처받기 시작한 마음만 남기셨는지를 이해 할 수 없었어
Despite encouragement from me No words were ever spoken
내게 위로를 받으셨지만 아무 말씀도 하지 않으셨지
And when she passed away I cried and cried all day
그리고 어머니가 떠나시고, 난 하루 종일 울었어
Alone again, naturally
Alone again, naturally
Alone Again (Naturally)
Gilbert O’Sullivan
[Verse 1]
In a little while from now, if I'm not feeling any less sour,
I promise myself to treat myself and visit a nearby tower,
and climbing to the top to throw myself off,
in an effort to make it clear to who-
ever what it's like when you're shattered
left standing in the lurch at a church with people saying,
"My God, that's tough, she stood him up, no point in us remaining.
We may as well go home." As I did on my own, alone again, naturally.
[Verse 2]
To think that only yesterday I was cheerful bright and gay,
looking forward - who wouldn't do ? The role I was about to play.
And as if to knock me down reality came around,
and without so much as a mere touch threw me into little pieces,
leaving me to doubt, all about God in his mercy,
who if he really does exist, why did he desert me
in my hour of need I truly am indeed,
alone again, naturally.
[Bridge]
It seems to me that there are more hearts broken in the world
than can be mended, left unattended.
What do we do? What do we do?
[Classical Guitar Solo]
[Refrain]
Alone again, naturally
[Verse 3]
Looking back over the years and whatever else appears,
I remember I cried when my father died, never wishing to hide my tears.
And at sixty-five years old, my mother, God rest her soul,
couldn't understand why the only man
she had ever loved had been taken.
Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken,
despite encouragement from me, no words were ever spoken.
When she passed away I cried and cried all day,
alone again, naturally.
