Ghost Riders in the Sky
幽靈騎士
Vaughn Monroe

An old cowboy went ridin' out one dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
Plowin' through the ragged skies, and up a cloudy draw
一個陰暗多風的日子，老牛仔騎馬外出
爬上山脊時，他因長途跋涉稍事休息
突然看見一群火紅雙眼的凶猛牛群
衝開破碎的天空，直上雲端

Their brands were still on fire, and their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
For he saw the riders comin' hard, and he heard their mournful cry
牠們身上的烙印猶帶著火焰，牠們的雙蹄是鋼鐵所鑄
漆黑的牛角閃亮，他幾可感到牠們熾熱的呼吸
當牠們雷霆萬鈞跑過天空，老牛仔被眼前場景震懾
一群騎士匆忙趕來，口中發出悲嘆

Yipie i-ay, yipie i-oh! Ghost herd in the sky
喝──哈！駕！幽靈牛群奔騰天際

Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred their shirts all soaked with sweat
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd, but they ain't caught 'em yet'
'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire, as they ride on, hear their cry
他們面容憔悴，他們雙眼無神，衣衫浸滿汗水
他們疾馳而來，追捕牛群，但一無所獲
一直以來，奔馳在天空的牧場
騎著鼻息噴火的馬匹，聽聽他們的悲嚎吧

Yipie i-ay, yipie i-oh! Ghost riders in the sky
喝──哈！駕！幽靈騎士奔馳天際

As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
"If you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range
Then cowboy change your ways today, or with us you will ride
Tryin' to catch the devil's herd, across these endless skies"
當他們策馬經過他身邊，其中一人呼叫他的名姓：
「如果你想拯救自己的靈魂，免於淪落地獄，如我等受這無盡勞役
牛仔啊！改邪歸正吧！否則你也將與我們同騎
奔馳在無垠天空，追趕惡魔的牲畜」

Yipie i-ay, yipie i-oh!
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
喝──哈！駕！
幽靈騎士奔馳天際
幽靈騎士奔馳天際
幽靈騎士奔馳天際
