| Hotel California Eagles On a dark desert highway Cool wind in my hair Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light My head grew heavy and my sight grew dimmer I had to stop for the night There she stood in the doorway I heard the mission bell And I was thinking to myself 'This could be heaven or this could be hell' Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way There were voices down the corridor I thought I heard them say--- Welcome to the Hotel California Such a lovely place (such a lovely face) Plenty of room at the Hotel California Any time of year, you can find it here Her mind is Tiffany-twisted She got the Mercedes Benz She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends How they dance in the courtyard Sweet summer sweats Some dance to remember Some dance to forget So I called up the Captain 'Please bring me my wine' He said, 'We haven't had that spirit(註2) here since nineteen sixty nine' And still those voices are calling from far away Wake you up in the middles of the night Just to hear them say--- Welcome to the Hotel California Such a lovely place (such a lovely face) They living it up at the Hotel California What a nice surprise, bring you alibis Mirrors on the ceiling The pink champagne on ice And she said 'We are all just prisoners here of our own device' And in the master's chambers They gathered for the feast They stab it with their steely knives But they just can't kill the beast Last thing I remember I was running for the door I had to find the passage back To the place I was before 'Relax', said the night man 'We are programmed to receive You can check out any time you like But you can never leave' |
加州旅館 老鷹合唱團 她的心被名牌佔據 他們在加州旅館裡尋歡作樂 但他們就是無法殺掉那隻野獸 |
上文為EAGLES最具代表性的一首歌:Hotel California
這也是我相當喜歡的一首歌 尤其是 You can check out any time you like But you can never leave' 那簡直就像在說人生似的
＂你可以隨時放棄 但你永遠都只能殘喘著 ＂像這樣的感覺
關於歌詞以及翻譯的部份 是轉載而來的 但譯詞部分我做了一些更動 把一些翻得太華麗的 或者說不通的部份（個人認為） 做了些有限度的修改
註 1：colitas科麗塔，Colatis是西班牙文，指「花蕾」，老鷹樂團用這個字暗指大麻，以避免招來與論麻煩。
註 2：spirit一般做"精神"、"靈魂"解釋，亦可解釋為：烈酒。
