【Rafael】一首为纳达尔而作的歌 *
Rafael
by Beatenberg
Sometimes it feels like heaven and sometimes it feels like hell
But you keep on going until it gets hard to tell
And your body moves with the grace of an archangel
Like a stroke of genius from Raphael
You lie down
On the backseat under covers
And every part of you is aching but your face is radiant
Because you went right through the pain
You wrestled with an angel
You waited in the rain
St. George and the dragon
On a pressed and painted plain
The sweat upon your forehead
It did not fall not vain
It didn't fall in vain
Sometimes it feels like heaven and sometimes it feels like hell
But you keep on going until it gets hard to tell
And your body moves with the grace of an archangel
Like a stroke of genius from Raphael
The crowd was still
Like a fresco in a chapel
9-7 in the fifth, O St. Sebastian must have been beside you all the way
The greatest match in history
You put them all to shame
4 hours and a Rolex
Could not put you away
You did it for yourself
And now the people sing your name
The people sing your name
Sometimes it feels like heaven and sometimes it feels like hell
But you keep on going until it gets hard to tell
And your body moves with the grace of an archangel
Like a stroke of genius from Raphael

歌词大意(翻得不好大家凑合看看
）——
这感觉，时而天堂，时而地狱；
然而你一直在努力着，直到天堂地狱的界限已难以分辨；
你的身体移动得如此自在，像得到了天使长的恩泽；
就如同，拉法的天才之击一般。
你在后座躺下，被阴影覆盖着；
身体的每一寸都在疼痛，面容却如此熠熠生辉；
因为你穿越痛苦而来，历经了一场与天使的搏斗角逐；
你等待在雨中；
像圣乔治与龙，在被压平和涂漆的平原之上。*1
汗水漫过你的前额；
没有掉下来，也没有白费；
流过的汗水，都并非徒劳。
人群，仍然如教堂里的壁画一般；
9-7赢下决胜盘，oh，圣塞巴斯蒂安一定一直守护在你身旁；*2
历史上最经典的对战啊，你让其他都黯然失色；
4小时与劳力士，也不能让你离开。
你为自己而战；
现在，人们都歌唱着你的名字。
这感觉，时而天堂，时而地狱；
然而你一直在努力，直到天堂地狱已难以分辨；
你的身体移动得如此自在，像得到了天使长的恩泽；
就如同，拉法的天才之击一般。
*注释1：圣乔治与龙，源于西方传说，圣乔治是基///督///教的殉///道///圣人，经典形象就是为了拯救被献///祭///的少女们而屠龙。
*注释2：圣塞巴斯蒂安，天///主///教一位殉///道///圣人。
