'39

這是 Queen 合唱團第 39 首創作歌曲，描寫一堆自願者被仙人（外星人？）帶到仙境去「旅遊」，結果回到地球時，和他們同時期的親朋好友都老了，因為「仙境」一年是地球的 100 年，好像中外都有同樣情境的故事。:)

滿有意思的一首歌，旋律也很好聽。

In the year of '39 assembled here the volunteers
In the days when lands were few
Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny morn
The sweetest sight ever seen

And the night followed day
And the storytellers say
That the score brave souls inside
For many a lonely day sailed across the milky seas
Never looked back, never feared, never cried

Don't you hear my call
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me calling you
Write your letters in the sand
For the day I take your hand
In the land that our grandchildren knew

In the year of '39 came a ship in from the blue
The volunteers came home that day
And they bring good news of a world so newly born
Though their hearts so heavily weigh
For the earth is old and grey
To a new home we'll away
But my love this cannot be
For so many years have gone
Though I'm older but a year
Your mother's eyes in your eyes cry to me

Don't you hear my call
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me calling you
All the letters in the sand
Cannot heal me like your hand
For my life still ahead
Pity me
