Come gather 'round people  Wherever you roam

And admit that the waters.Around  you have grown.

And accept it that soon.You'll be  drenched to the bone.

If your time to you.Is worth  savin'

Then you better start swimmin'.

Or you'll sink like a stone.

For the times they are  a-changin'.

Come writers and critics.Who  prophesize with your pen.

And keep your eyes wide.The  chance won't come again.

And don't speak too soon.For the  wheel's still in spin

And there's no tellin' who. That  it's namin'.

For the loser now.Will be later  to win.

For the times they are  a-changin'.

Come senators, congressmen.Please  heed the call.

Don't stand in the doorway.Don't  block up the hall.

For he that gets hurt.Will be he  who has stalled.

There's a battle outside.And it  is ragin'.

It'll soon shake your windows.And  rattle your walls.

For the times they are  a-changin'.

Come mothers and  fathers.Throughout the land.

And don't criticize.What you  can't understand.

Your sons and your daughters.Are  beyond your command.

Your old road is.Rapidly agin'.

Please get out of the new one.If  you can't lend your hand.

For the times they are  a-changin'.

The line it is drawn.The curse it  is cast.

The slow one now.Will later be  fast.As the present now.

Will later be past.The order is

Rapidly fadin'.

And the first one now.

Will later be last For the times

they are a-changin'.

无论何处漫游请快聚首

承认吧周遭洪水已开始涨起

接受这现实很快你会感到透骨凉意

若你的时代仍有价值，值得拯救

那就赶快游起

否则沉沦如石头

因时代变革在不久　

来吧，预言以笔的作家，批评家们　　

请睁大你们的双眼良机难再至

不必太快做出结论因车轮在飞驰

谁被提名无从知

输家翻盘早晚的事

因时代变革在不久　

来吧，议员们请留心这呼声　

别把着门不要阻住走廊

因为容易受伤的正是那些墨守成规的人

外面风起云涌战斗正酣

就快把你们的门窗震动你们的墙壁将震颤

因时代变革在不久

来吧，这大地上的父亲，母亲们　

不要随意批评那些你无法理解的事情　

你们的儿子女儿不再受你们安排　　

你们走过的道路正迅速陈旧

请放开新的一代如果不能借予他们双手　　

因时代变革在不久

线条已被勾勒咒语已被施下　　

现在步履维艰的稍后会健步如飞，因那正在发生的很快

会成为过去，现在的秩序

正迅速退出　　

现在走在前头的　　

将来会落在最后，因为这时代，

正在改变
