蒼穹未央

帝王的神殿（或宮殿），大部分翻成「王者的殿堂」，當然～也是有人直譯「國王的廟」，總之，英文是〈The temple of the king〉，這首歌曲，也是國中時期的西洋歌曲，照當時年輕時的個性，是先翻成中文再說，可是一直到現在，也不了解「Year of the Fox」是什麼意思，可能大概～是西方世界某一個時期的神話故事吧！備註：節錄出自〈安德森之夢〉……明明是 Rainbow 彩虹合唱團的同名專輯，封面出現的卻是 Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow……Ritchie Blackmore 瑞奇布萊克摩爾是誰？老搖滾們都知道，70 年代有個舉足輕重的重搖滾天團 Deep Purple，而他就是深紫色的吉他手兼靈魂人物，該團的經典專輯，都是在瑞奇布萊克摩爾帶領下完成的。

One day in the Year of the Fox

在狐年的某一天
Came a time remembered well

一段令人難忘的時光
When the strong young man of the rising sun

當健壯而年輕的朝陽之子
Heard the tolling of the great black bell

聽見那口黑色大鐘的鐘聲響起
One day in the Year of the Fox

在狐年的某一天

When the bell began to ring

當鐘聲響起
It meant the time had come for one to go to the temple of the king

意味著某人進入帝王神殿的時刻已經來臨

There in the middle of the circle he stands

他站立在圓圈的中央
Searching, seeking

四處搜尋

With just one touch of his trembling hand

只要他那顫動的手一觸摸到
The answer will be found

謎底就會揭曉
Daylight waits while the old man sings

陽光在等候年邁者唱著：
"Heaven help me!”

"上天，幫幫我！"

And then like the rush of a thousand wings

然後像千百雙羽翼的撲擊般

It shines upon the one

陽光照在他身上
And the day has just begun

這一天才剛開始

One day in the Year of the Fox

在狐年的某一天
Came a time remembered well

一段令人難忘的時光
When the strong young man of the rising sun

當健壯而年輕的朝陽之子
Heard the tolling of the great black bell

聽見那口黑色大鐘的鐘聲響起
One day in the Year of the Fox

在狐年的某一天
When the bell began to sing

當鐘聲開始唱著
It meant the time had come for the one to go to the temple of the king

意味著他進入帝王神殿的時刻已經來臨

There in the middle of the people he stands, seeing, feeling

在人群中他站立著、觀望著、感受著
With just a way of the strong right hand

只有那樣強壯的右手
Be strong to the temple of the king

才足以撐起帝王的神殿

Far from the circle at the edge of the world

遠離世界邊緣的四週
He's hoping, wondering

他企盼著、猶疑著
Thinking back on the stories he's heard of what he's going to see

回想著他聽說過且即將面對的故事
There in the middle of a circle

在圓圈的中間

It lies "Heaven help me!”

寫著"上天，幫幫我！"
Then all could see by the shine in his eyes

然後，從他眼中的光芒可以看出
The answer had been found
謎底已經揭曉

Back with the people in the circle he stands, giving, feeling

回到人群中，他在圓圈裡站立著，賜予並感受著
With just one touch of a strong right hand

觸摸到那強壯的右手
They know of the temple and the king

人們明白那就是帝王和他的神殿
