《加州旅馆》(Hotel California)是美国摇滚乐队老鹰乐队演唱的歌曲,词曲由唐·亨利、格列·弗雷和Don Felder创作,由乐队鼓手唐·亨利担任主唱,发行于1977年2月22日,收录在乐队的第五张同名录音室专辑《加州旅馆》中。
1978年,该曲获得了第20届格莱美奖年度唱片奖。
该曲的创作者兼主唱唐·亨利认为《加州旅馆》讲的是从天真到成熟的旅程,讲的是天真的逝去,仅此而已。亨利表示,乐队成员是一群来自中西部州中产阶层背景的年轻人,该曲是他们对洛杉矶上流社会的理解,也可看做是对总是追求奢淫生活的美国的一个象征,而不仅仅是关于加州和比佛利山区。唐·亨利在学生时代曾经学习过诗歌,所以他把诗歌的写作运用到了歌曲创作中。

On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair
在漆黑荒凉的公路上凉风吹散了我的头发
Warm smell of colitas riSING up through the air
科里塔斯温热的气息在空中袅袅上升
Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
抬头极目远方 微微灯光闪烁
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
我的头脑变得沉重 我的视线越发模糊
I had to stop for the night
必须停下来了 寻找过夜的地方
There she stood in the doorway
而她就站在门廊边
I heard the mission bell
我听见钟声在我耳边回响
I was thinking to myself
我心中暗念
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
地狱与天堂只一念之差
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
她燃起蜡烛在我前方引路
There were voices down the corridor
走廊深处一阵阵歌声回荡
I thought I heard them say
我隐约听见他们在唱
Welcome to the Hotel California
欢迎来到加州旅馆
Such a lovely place
多么可爱的地方
Such a lovely place
多么可爱的地方
Such a lovely face

Plenty of room at the Hotel California
加州旅馆有足够多的房间
Any time of year
一年四季
Any time of year
任何时候
You can find it here
你都可以住在这里
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted she got the Mercedes bends
她的心为珠宝所扭曲 她开着奔驰呼啸而来
She got a lot of pretty pretty boys that she calls fR.E.Ds
帅气男子伴随左右 她称他们为朋友
How they dance in the courtyard sweet summer sweat
在庭院里他们纵情欢舞 挥洒汗水
Some dance to remember some dance to forget
有人翩翩为回忆 有人翩翩求忘却
So I called up the Captain
于是我唤来领班
Please bring me my wine
请给我来点酒
He said we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine
而他说自从一九六九我们再无供应
And still those voices are calLINg from far away
遥远处依然传来那些声响
Wake you up in the middle of the night
在深夜使你惊醒
Just to hear them say
只听见他们在诉说
Welcome to the Hotel California
欢迎来到加州旅馆
Such a lovely place
多么可爱的地方
Such a lovely place

They livin' it up at the Hotel California

What a nice surprise

Bring your alibis
给了你堕落的缘由
Mirrors on the ceiling
镜子嵌在天花板
The pink champagne on ice
粉红香槟浸在冰块之中
And she said we are all just prisoners here of our own device
她却说这里的我们都是囚犯 为自己欲望负债
And in the master's chambers
在主厅大房间内
They gathered for the feast
人们举起狂欢之火
They stab it with their steely knives
他们用钢刀挥刺着
But they just can't kill the beast
却杀不死心中恶魔
Last thing I remember I was
我最后所唯一记得的是
Running for the door
我拼命奔向大门口
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
我必须找到来时路 回到我原来的地方
Relax said the night man
然而看门人说 放松点吧
We are programmed to receive
我们天生受诱惑 我们只是照常接待
You can check out any time you like

But you can never leave
却永远无法摆脱
