[01:23.35] Shine, shine, the light of good works shine
[01:33.90] The watch before the city gates depicted in their prime
[01:43.45] That golden light all grimy now
[01:49.04] Three hundred years have passed
[01:51.36] The worthy Captain and his squad of troopers standing fast
[02:06.15] The artist knew their faces well
[02:08.19] The husbands of his lady friends
[02:10.22] His creditors and councillors
[02:12.27] In armour bright, the merchant men
[02:14.30] Official moments of the guild
[02:16.53] In poses keen from bygone days
[02:18.48] The city fathers frozen there
[02:20.32] Upon the canvas dark with age
[02:30.49] The smell of paint, a flask of wine
[02:32.85] And turn those faces all to me
[02:34.65] The blunderbuss and halberd-shaft
[02:36.81] And Dutch respectability
[02:38.71] They make their entrance one by one
[02:40.85] Defenders of that way of life
[02:42.84] The redbrick home, the bourgeoisie
[02:44.88] Guitar lessons for the wife
[03:34.98] So many years we suffered here
[03:37.16] Our country racked with Spanish wars
[03:39.42] Now comes a chance to find ourselves
[03:41.37] And quiet reigns behind our doors
[03:43.26] We think about posterity again
[04:17.82] And so the pride of little men
[04:22.13] The burghers good and true
[04:24.52] Still living through the painter's hands
[04:27.04] Request you all to understand
[01:23.35] 闪耀,闪耀吧,伟大作品的光芒闪耀
[01:33.90] 城门前的巡逻,描绘下他们最辉煌的一刻
[01:43.45] 那金色的光如今已黯淡
[01:49.04] 三百年已逝去
[01:51.36] 可敬的队长和他的士兵们依旧挺立
[02:06.15] 画家对他们的脸了若指掌
[02:08.19] 他女性朋友们的丈夫们、
[02:10.22] 他的债主扪,他的议员老爷们
[02:12.27] 铠甲明亮穿在商人身上
[02:14.30] 工会的官方时刻
[02:16.53] 沉浸在过去日子里摆拍的热情中
[02:18.48] 城市之父冻结在那
[02:20.32] 那随着岁月流逝而变黑的画布上
[02:30.49] 油画的气味,一烧瓶酒【画材?】
[02:32.85] 他们把脸全都转向我
[02:34.65] 和他们的火铳,戟和矛
[02:36.81] 荷兰式的体面
[02:38.71] 他们一个个进来
[02:40.85] 那种生活方式的捍卫者:
[02:42.84] 红砖房、中产趣味
[02:44.88] 妻子上的吉他课
[03:34.98] 我们在此忍受了这么多年。
[03:37.16] 我们的国家在西班牙战争中满目疮痍
[03:39.42] 现在终于能为自己而活了
[03:41.37] 关起门,我就拥有自己家的安宁主权
[03:43.26] 我们想要再一次的繁殖兴旺
[04:17.82] 所以这就是小人物的骄傲
[04:22.13] 那些真诚的良民
[04:24.52] 通过画家的画笔,他们依然活着
[04:27.04] 要求着你来理解这一切。
