The Boxer Lyrics – Ainars Mielavs
Singer: Ainars Mielavs
Title: The Boxer
I am just a poor boy
Though my story’s seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises
All lies and jest
Still, a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest
When I left my home and my family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places
Only they would know
Lie-la-lie…
Asking only workman’s wages
I come looking for a job
But I get no offers
Just a come-on from the wh#res on Seventh Avenue
I do declare
There were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there
Lie-la-lie…
Lie-la-lie…
Then I’m laying out my winter clothes
And wishing I was gone
Going home
Where the New York City winters aren’t bleeding me
Leading me, going home
In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev’ry glove that laid him down
And cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
“I am leaving, I am leaving”
But the fighter still remains, mhm, hmm
Lie-la-lie…

The Boxer – Terjemahan / Translation
Saya hanya seorang bocah malang
Padahal ceritaku jarang diceritakan
Saya telah menyia-nyiakan perlawanan saya
Untuk kantong gumaman, seperti janji
Semua kebohongan dan bercanda
Namun, seorang pria mendengar apa yang ingin dia dengar
Dan mengabaikan sisanya
Ketika saya meninggalkan rumah dan keluarga saya
Saya tidak lebih dari seorang anak laki-laki
Di perusahaan orang asing
Di ketenangan stasiun kereta api
Lari ketakutan
Meletakkan rendah, mencari tempat yang lebih miskin
Di mana orang-orang compang-camping pergi
Mencari tempat
Hanya mereka yang akan tahu
Berbohong …
Hanya meminta upah pekerja
Saya datang mencari pekerjaan
Tapi saya tidak mendapat penawaran
Hanya datang dari pelacur di Seventh Avenue
Saya menyatakan
Ada saat-saat ketika aku sangat kesepian
Saya menerima kenyamanan di sana
Berbohong …
Berbohong …
Lalu aku meletakkan pakaian musim dinginku
Dan berharap aku pergi
Pulang
Di mana musim dingin kota New York tidak berdarah
Memimpin saya, pulang
Di kliring berdiri seorang petinju
Dan seorang pejuang dengan perdagangannya
Dan dia membawa pengingat
Ev’ry sarung tangan yang meletakkannya
Dan memotongnya sampai dia berteriak
Dalam kemarahannya dan rasa malunya
“Aku akan pergi, aku akan pergi”
Tetapi pejuang masih tetap, mhm, hmm
Berbohong …
