Do they know it's Christmastime.Band Aid.1984
It's Christmastime
這是聖誕節的時候
There's no need to be afraid
沒有人應該感到害怕的時候
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade
是聖誕節的時候 我們點亮燭光趕走黑暗
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
在我們富足的世界裡 我們用微笑傳遞歡樂
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime
就在這聖誕的時刻
也請用溫暖的雙手
擁抱世界黑暗的角落
But say a prayer
讓我們誠心祈禱
Pray for the other ones
為受難的人們祈禱
At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun
當我們在歡度聖誕 卻有人生靈塗炭
There's a world outside your window
在世界的另一個地方
And it's a world of dread and fear
一個充滿恐懼害怕的地方
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears
唯一的甘霖竟是帶來刺痛的淚水
And the Christmas bells that ring there
are the clanging chimes of doom
聽不到聖誕的鈴聲 他們耳邊響起的是生命的喪鐘
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
今晚我們該感恩上帝 因為此時受難的並不是你
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime
聖誕節的非洲不會下雪
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
最好的聖誕禮物 竟只是生命的繼續
(Oooh) Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow
在那寸草不生的乾旱大地
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
人們可知道這是聖誕時分
(Here's to you) raise a glass for everyone
讓我們舉杯為親愛的家人祝福
(Here's to them) underneath that burning sun
讓我們舉杯為在烈日下的他們祈福
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
但他們可知道這是聖誕時分
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
跟飢荒的人們 分享生命的富足
Let them know it's Christmastime again
讓他們再次感受聖誕的溫暖
Feed the world
跟飢荒的人們 分享生命的富足
Let them know it's Christmastime again
讓他們再次感受聖誕的溫暖
