海风刮过了无人的街道
The sea breeze sweeps through the empty streets.
西西里的夜色 谁在那祷告?
In the night's embrace of Sicily, who is praying there?
港边的渔船 灯火在闪耀
By the harbor, fishing boats' lights are flickering.
一闪一闪 像谁在那打暗号
They sparkle like someone sending a secret signal.
柠檬树的香气掩盖不了
The scent of lemon trees can't mask the fact
弥漫在人群中的火药味道
That gunpowder lingers in the crowd's atmosphere.
暗巷谁已经倒下 停止了喧闹?
In the dark alley, who has fallen, silencing the noise?
枪浅浅的笑 默默的走掉
The faint laughter of a gun, quietly slipping away.
城市漆黑 脚步声谁追?
In the city's darkness, whose footsteps are chasing?
岸边浪花陪了我一夜
By the shore, the waves kept me company all night.
子弹穿越有时比誓言更直接
Sometimes bullets pierce more directly than promises
让这善恶难辨的世界更明确
Making this world of good and evil clearer still
交给风用沉默解决
Let the wind resolve it all in silence
佩尔古萨湖边道离别
By Lake Pergusa, we say our farewells
别动 别动 谁对准了枪口?
Don't move, don't move, who has aimed their gun?
你懂 你懂 听我冷静的说
You understand, you understand, hear me speak calmly
枪声起 总有人在不远处叹息
Gunfire rings out, someone nearby sighs
私下的正义在夜里维持秩序
Private justice keeps the order through the night
未干的血 还有那烟硝味
Dried blood lingers, with the smell of gunpowder too
关于荣耀 我转身拒绝再写
As for glory, I turn away, refusing to write more
这雨后似乎安静了一切
The rain seems to have quieted everything down
这画面似乎完整了一些
This scene feels a bit more complete
别动 别动 谁对准了枪口?
Don't move, don't move, who aimed the gun?
你懂 你懂 听我冷静的说
You know, you know, let me speak calmly
没有风的午后 秘密要藏多久?
On a windless afternoon, how long must secrets be hidden?
酒窖里的红酒 举杯是谁的手?
In the wine cellar, whose hand raises the glass?
故事了结 庄园落叶纷飞
The story concludes, leaves fall in the estate
谁去谁回 没有名字的季节
Who goes, who returns, in this nameless season?
海风刮过了无人的街道
The sea breeze sweeps through the deserted street
西西里的夜色 谁在那祷告?
In the Sicilian night, who is praying there?
港边的渔船 灯火在闪耀
The fishing boats by the harbor, their lights flicker bright
一闪一闪 像谁在那打暗号
Flickering and flashing, like someone sending signs in the night
柠檬树的香气掩盖不了
The scent of lemon trees can't hide it at all
弥漫在人群中的火药味道
The smell of gunpowder lingers amidst the crowd's thrall
暗巷谁已经倒下 停止了喧闹?
In the dark alley, who has fallen down? Silence reigns all around.
枪浅浅的笑 默默的走掉
A shallow smile from the gun, slips away without a sound
城市漆黑 脚步声谁追?
In the pitch-black city, whose footsteps do we trace?
岸边浪花陪了我一夜
The splashing waves kept me company all night in this space
子弹穿越有时比誓言更直接
Sometimes a bullet travels straighter than a promise made
让这善恶难辨的世界更明确
Making this world, where right and wrong seem to fade, more clearly portrayed
交给风用沉默解决
Let the wind carry it, silence the solution.
佩尔古萨湖边道离别
At Lake Pelgusa, we bid farewell.
别动 别动 谁对准了枪口?
Don't move, don't move, who has their gun aimed?
你懂 你懂 听我冷静的说
You understand, you understand, hear me speak calmly.
枪声起 总有人在不远处叹息
The gunshot sounds, someone sighs not far away.
私下的正义在夜里维持秩序
Private justice keeps order in the night.
未干的血 还有那烟硝味
Blood yet to dry, and the scent of gunpowder remains.
关于荣耀 我转身拒绝再写
About glory, I turn away, refusing to write again.
这雨后似乎安静了一切
This rain seems to have quieted everything.
这画面似乎完整了一些
This scene seems a bit more complete.
别动 别动 谁对准了枪口?
Don't move, don't move, who has the gun aimed?
你懂 你懂 听我冷静的说
You know, you know, let me speak calmly.
没有风的午后 秘密要藏多久?
In the windless afternoon, how long must secrets be kept?
酒窖里的红酒 举杯是谁的手?
In the cellar of red wine, whose hand raises the glass?
故事了结 庄园落叶纷飞
The story ends, leaves fall in the manor.
谁去谁回 没有名字的季节
Who comes, who goes, in this season without a name.
