《Because I Could Not Stop For Death》歌词

[00:00:01] 作词 : emily dickinson

[00:00:11] because i could not stop for death,

[00:00:17] he kindly stopped for me;

[00:00:21] the carriage held but just ourselves

[00:00:27] and immortality.

[00:00:39] we slowly drove, he knew no haste,

[00:00:45] and i had put away

[00:00:50] my labour, and my leisure too,

[00:00:56] for his civility.

[00:01:08] we passed the school where children played,

[00:01:14] their lessons scarcely done;

[00:01:19] we passed the fields of gazing grain,

[00:01:25] we passed the setting sun.

[00:01:38] we paused before a house that seemed

[00:01:44] a swelling of the ground;

[00:01:48] the roof was scarcely visible,

[00:01:54] the cornice but a mound.

[00:02:06] since then 'tis centuries; but each

[00:02:11] feels shorter than the day

[00:02:17] i first surmised the horses' heads

[00:02:23] were toward eternity.
