酷我-北美枫

茜雪

The water is wide

The water is wide, I cant cross over
and neither I have wings to fly
give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row - my love and I
Now love is gentle, and love is kind
the sweetest flower when first its new
but love grows old, and waxes cold
and fades away like morning dew

There is a ship, she sails the sea
shes loaded deep as deep can be
but not as deep as the love Im in
I know not how I sink or swim

The water is wide, I cant cross over
and neither I have wings to fly
give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row - my love and I
and both shall row - my love and I

试译如下：

The water is wide, I cant cross over
and neither I have wings to fly
宽广的水面,我无法穿越,也没有可以飞翔的翅膀

give me a boat that can carry two
给我一只船,可以穿越水面,展翅飞翔

and both shall row - my love and I
而且,可以承载_我的爱和我

Now love is gentle, and love is kind
现在,爱是温柔的,爱也是美好的

the sweetest flower when first its new
在最初新鲜的时候,她是一朵最甜美的花儿

but love grows old, and waxes cold
但,当爱变得衰老,她就涂上了冰冷的蜡

and fades away like morning dew
就像晨露渐渐消逝.

There is a ship, she sails the sea
这里有一只船,她将在大海中扬帆起航

shes loaded deep as deep can be
她承载着她能承载的水深

but not as deep as the love Im in
但并不如我的爱一样深

I know not how I sink or swim
我知道我或者沉沦或者游过

The water is wide, I cant cross over
and neither I have wings to fly
give me a boat that can carry two
宽广的水面,我无法穿越,也没有可以飞翔的翅膀
给我一只船,可以穿越水面,展翅飞翔

and both shall row - my love and I
还能承载我的爱和我

and both shall row - my love and I
还能承载我的爱和我

"I know not how I sink or swim"

Consider changing it like this:

"I do not know if I will sink or swim."

The rest is upon you. Hope this helps!
