　　"Best words in best order"

　　“最好的用詞，最棒的語序”

　　Dylan - who took his stage name from the poet Dylan Thomas - had long been tipped as a potential prize recipient.

　　迪倫——藝名取自于詩人迪倫·托馬斯——一直以來都被視為有潛力的得獎人。

　　Few experts, though, expected the academy to extend the award to a genre such as folk rock music.

　　Former Poet Laureate Sir Andrew Motion is among those to have previously praised Dylan's lyrics, saying his songs "work as poems".

　　之前的桂冠詩人安德魯·莫遜爵士就是曾經(jīng)贊美過迪倫歌詞的人，他說迪倫的歌詞“像詩歌一樣”。

　　He told the BBC: "They're often the best words in the best order."

　　他向BBC表示:“它們往往都是用最好的用詞，最棒的語序?！?/p>
