돈 맥클린Don McLean의 빈센트 Vincent

Vincent

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you, Vincent
This world was never meant
For one as beautiful as you
Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
A silver thorn, a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will

<가사 해석>

Starry, starry night
별이 총총 빛나는 밤
Paint your palette blue and gray
팔레트에 파란색과 회색을 칠하고
Look out on a summer's day
한 여름날의 밖을 내다봐
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
내 영혼의 어둠을 꿰뚫는 눈을 통해

Shadows on the hills
언덕 위의 그림자들
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
나무들과 수선화를 그려봐
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
산들바람과 겨울의 추위를 포착해
In colors on the snowy linen land
눈 내린 리넨 화폭 세상 위 색으로 담아

Now I understand
이제야 난 알았어
What you tried to say to me
당신이 내게 무엇을 말하려고 했는지
And how you suffered for your sanity
제정신으로 살기 위해 얼마나 고뇌했는지
And how you tried to set them free
그들을 해방시키기 위해 얼마나 노력했는지

They would not listen, they did not know how
그들은 듣지 않았겠지, 어떻게 해야 할지를 몰랐고
Perhaps they'll listen now
어쩌면 이젠 들을지도 모르겠지만

Starry, starry night
별이 빛나는 밤
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
환하게 타오르는 불길에 휩싸인 꽃들
Swirling clouds in violet haze
보랏빛 실안개 속에서 소용돌이치는 구름들
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
연회청색으로 빛나는 빈센트 반 고흐의 눈

Colors changing hue
색조로 변하는 색상들
Morning fields of amber grain
황금색 질감의 아침 들판들
Weathered faces lined in pain
고통으로 주름지고 바래진 표정들이
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
화가의 사랑스러운 손길 아래서 위로를 받네

Now I understand
이제야 난 알았어
What you tried to say to me
당신이 내게 무엇을 말하려고 했는지
And how you suffered for your sanity
제정신으로 살기 위해 얼마나 고뇌했는지
And how you tried to set them free
그들을 해방시키기 위해 얼마나 노력했는지

They would not listen, they did not know how
그들은 듣지 않았겠지, 어떻게 해야 할지를 몰랐고
Perhaps they'll listen now
어쩌면 이젠 들을지도 모르겠지만

For they could not love you
그들은 당신을 사랑할 수 없었기에
But still your love was true
하지만 당신의 사랑은 여전히 진심이었지
And when no hope was left in sight
눈앞에 어떤 희망도 남아 있지 않을 때도
On that starry, starry night
그 별이 빛나는 밤엔

You took your life, as lovers often do
연인들이 으레 그렇듯, 당신은 스스로 인생을 앗아갔지
But I could've told you Vincent
하지만 난 이 말을 해줄 수 있었다오, 빈센트
This world was never meant for
이 세상은 당신만큼 아름다운
One as beautiful as you
사람을 위한 곳이 아니었다고

Starry, starry night
별이 빛나는 밤
Portraits hung in empty halls
빈 복도에 걸려 있는 초상화들
Frame-less heads on nameless walls
이름 없는 벽의 프레임도 없는 그 얼굴들은
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
이 세상을 응시하는, 잊을 수 없는 눈을 가졌지

Like the strangers that you've met
당신이 만나온 그 낯선 이들처럼
The ragged men in ragged clothes
남루한 옷차림의 남루한 사람들
The silver thorn of bloody rose
피로 얼룩진 장미의 은빛 가시는
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
새로 쌓인 눈 위에 부서지고 뭉개져 놓여있네

Now I think I know
이제 난 알 것 같아
What you tried to say to me
당신이 내게 무엇을 말하려고 했는지
And how you suffered for your sanity
제정신으로 살기 위해 얼마나 고뇌했는지
And how you tried to set them free
그들을 해방시키기 위해 얼마나 노력했는지

They would not listen, they're not listening still
그들은 듣지 않았겠지, 여전히 듣지 않고 있고
Perhaps they never will
아마 영원히 그럴 거야
