A hard rain SA-gonna fall
Oh where have you been my blue-eyed son

I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests

I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans

I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children

And it's a hard it's a hard it's a hard and it's a hard
慘象，已使我目不忍視了
It's a hard rain a-going to fall
就像瓢潑一樣
And what did you hear my blue-eyed son
你聽說過我那涉世不深的孩子嗎

Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter

I heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
我聽到一個小丑在巷子裡痛哭的聲音
And it's a hard it's a hard it's a hard it's a hard
流言，尤使我耳不忍聞
It's a hard rain's a-going to fall
雨還在下著

And it's a hard it's a hard it's a hard it's a hard

It's a hard rain's a-going to fall
瓢潑大雨呵，痛徹心扉
And what'll you do now my blue -eyed son
我的孩子，你該怎麼辦
And what'll you do now my darling young one
我的寶貝啊
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin'
在雨開始之前我要回家
I'll walk to the deepths of the deepest dark forest
我將走到最深的黑暗森林的深處
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty

Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
在那裡，世態炎涼
Where the home in the valleymeets the damp dirty prison
山谷裡的家與潮濕骯髒的監獄齊肩並落
And the executioner's face is always well hidden
劊子手的臉總隱藏在面具之後
Where hunger is ugly where the souls are forgotten

Where black is the color where none is the number
那裡只是一片黑暗
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
我會告訴它，思考它，談論它，呼吸它
And reflect from the mountain so all souls can see it
讓它被世人看清面目
And I 'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin'
我會站在海洋上，直到我開始下沉
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
但在我開始唱之前，我會很清楚我的歌
And it's a hard it's a hard it's a hard and it's a hard
慘象，已使我目不忍視了
It's a hard rain's a-going to fall
天陰了，下雨了
