If I Were a Rich Man (Live)

if I were a rich man,

如果我是个富有的人

Yubby libby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum.

啦啦啦啦啦啦啦

All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.

整天都在哼着小曲

If I were a wealthy man.

如果我是个富有的人

I wouldn't have to work hard.

我可以轻松地工作

Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.

啦啦啦啦啦啦啦

If I were a biddy biddy rich,

Idle-diddle-daidle-daidle man.

如果我是一个富有的人

I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen,

我要盖一幢高高的房子

Right in the middle of the town.

十来个房间就在镇中心

A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below.

一个精致的铁皮屋顶 下面是真正的木地板

There would be one long staircase just going up,

有一个很长的楼梯直直向上

And one even longer coming down,

再有一个更长的下来

And one more leading nowhere, just for show.

最后建一个无止境长的楼梯

I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese and ducks

我会在院子里装满小鸡还有火鸡、鹅和鸭子

For the town to see and hear.

让镇上的人看看听听

Squawking just as noisily as they can.

尖叫声个个洪亮

With each loud "cheep" "swaqwk" "honk" “quack"

每个响亮的“叽叽喳喳-嘎嘎-咕咕哒”

Would land like a trumpet on the ear,

就像在耳边吹着小号那样响亮

As if to say "Here lives a wealthy man."​

好像在说这样真好

The most important men in town would come to fawn on me!

附近的人慕名而来

Posing problems that would cross a rabbi's eyes!

提出意见时都会赞同

If I were a rich man,

如果我是个富有的人

Yubby libby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum.

啦啦啦啦啦啦啦

All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.

整天都在哼着小曲

If I were a wealthy man.

如果我是个富有的人

I wouldn't have to work hard.

我可以轻松地工作

dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum.

啦啦啦啦啦啦啦

Lord who made the lion and the lamb,

上天创造了狮子和羊

You decreed I should be what I am.

你判定了我这个必须做我自己

Would it spoil some vast eternal plan?

这会破坏你浩瀚永恒的计划吗？

If I were a wealthy man.

如果我是一个富有的人
