If a city

If a city

If a city is set upon a hill

Under the flight of birds

Over on the Downs

Are the flights of birdsong

If under the Golden Calf

Dozing buried under

Under the grass and moss

In the sweet shadow of that hill

If the middle of the well is a wing of glod

Down the passed path

Ang long along the way

Is a city

And if that city holds a man

And in that man

Is a city on the heights of all the planets

That have uprised

And upset the stars

And in that woman

Who circles that city

Her musk trace sliver

Under her feet

If the city street is silent

And mute dogs surround

The woman who circles the city

In the field she lies

And over her bed

Shakes beyond the daisies

Of the city wall

Beyond past the flowers

That flow like queens

Into the city set upon a height

The pitchforks by home

In the throat of the corn

His eyes; the colours

Of clouds at nights

If before the sunflowers

Drowned by those suns

If by those flowers

The city is unwell

I am still there

Inside you like a city

And if the city gate is shut

In the day and not the night

If the peacock is banished

And burns with a song

If under God's wing

By the jawbone and hee-haw

The donkey creeps silently

Through the door in the hall

Then plague and mice

And the woodlice stream

歌詞解析

一句話主旨

以城市為隱喻探討存在與消逝的哲思，描繪文明與自然、個人與宇宙的矛盾關係。

主題

存在主義的質問與城市意象的解構，探討人類文明的脆弱性與內在精神的高遠追求。

情緒

沉靜中隱藏焦慮，帶有孤寂與疏離感，同時蘊含對永恆的嚮往與對崩壞的預感。

意象與手法

運用「城市」作為核心隱喻，結合自然元素（飛鳥、草地、星際）與宗教符碼（金牛、上帝之翼），透過矛盾對比（「沉默街頭」與「星體動搖」）強化存在與虛無的張力。

重點句解讀

1. 「If a city is set upon a hill」

城市建於高處象徵理想或不可企及的目標，卻也暗示其與現實的隔離與脆弱。

2. 「In that man / Is a city on the heights of all the planets」

個人內在竟藏有超越性的宇宙規模，隱喻人類精神的廣袤與與宇宙的連結。

3. 「The woman who circles that city / Her musk trace sliver」

女性形象象徵循環的守護者，其蹤跡如銀絲般細微，暗示存在於邊緣的隱密力量。

4. 「If the city street is silent / And mute dogs surround」

沉默與沉默的守護者形成壓抑氛圍，暗示文明崩壞前的靜默危機。

適合情境

獨處沉思、面對人生轉折時，或在都市中感受疏離與孤獨的瞬間。

用原調 D 彈，開放和弦（不用按封閉的 C、D、E、G、A、Am、Dm、Em）約佔 72% 的時間，需要按封閉或較難的和弦有 A#、Gm、F、A#m。

建議夾 Capo 5、改用 Am 的指型彈，聲音一樣是原調，開放和弦比例可提高到 82%，對新手比較友善。
