我超愛這首歌,不論是歌曲本身或是其所包含的意義,都堪為經典

歌曲是U2為了一部與歌曲同名的記錄片而寫的
歌詞的背景是一名波士尼亞的年輕女子在家鄉陷入戰火時出國參加選美大會
片中最後出現一幕,佳麗們手持著一塊布,上面寫著
"DON'T LET THEM KILL US."

Miss Sarajevo

Is there a time for keeping a distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
For getting on with your day

Is there a time for kohl and lipstick
A time for cutting hair
Is there a time for high street shopping
To find the right dress to wear

Here she comes
Heads turn around
Here she comes
To take her crown

Is there a time to walk for cover
A time for kiss and tell
Is there a time for different colors
Different names you find it hard to spell

Is there a time for first communion
A time for east 17
Is there a time to turn to mecca
Is there a time to be a beauty queen

Here she comes
Beauty plays the crown
Here she comes
Surreal in her crown

[Pavarotti] [English translation:]

You say that the river
finds the way to the sea
And as the river
you'll come to me
Beyond the borders
and the thirsty lands
You say that as river
As river
Love will come
Love
And I cannot pray anymore
And I cannot hope in love anymore
And I cannot wait for love anymore

[Bono]
Is there a time for tying ribbons
A time for Christmas trees
Is there a time for laying tables
When the night is set to freeze

塞拉耶弗小姐

會有能夠置身事外的時候嗎
能夠轉頭不看的時候
會有能夠把頭低下的時候嗎
好讓日子繼續過下去

會有能夠塗眼影跟口紅的時候嗎?
能夠去剪頭髮
會有能夠到大街上逛逛購物的時候嗎?
好去買件合適的衣服

她走過來了
大家都轉頭引頸
她走過來了
要接受后冠加冕

會有能夠遊行示威的時候嗎
能夠親吻與訴說的時候
會有各種膚色和各種你不會拼的名字
都和平共處的時候嗎

會有能夠接受第一次聖餐的時候嗎?
能夠迷戀東方17男子合唱團的時候
會有能夠朝向麥加的時候嗎
會有能夠當選美皇后的時候嗎

她走過來了
美麗與后冠競豔
她走過來了
戴著后冠,全然超現實

帕若瓦第【英文翻譯】

你說這條河
終會找到歸路回到海裡
就像這條河一樣
你終會回到我身邊
儘管有重重邊界
還有無邊的饑渴之地阻隔
你說就像河流一樣
就像河流
愛終會來到

而我已經無法再禱告
而我已經無法對愛再抱持任何希望
而我已經無法再繼續等待愛的到來

【波諾】
會有能夠繫上絲帶的時候嗎
能夠有聖誕樹的時候
會有能夠在桌上擺好餐具的時候嗎
當冰寒刺骨的夜幕開始垂下
