Pearls

There is a woman in Somalia
索马里有个女人
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
她在路边捡寻珍珠碎片

有一种比自然更强大的力量
There's a force stronger than nature
使她意志从不屈服

她就这样活着
Keeps her will alive
渴求着生存

不知是什么锻造了她
This is how she's dying
我只想像她一样坚强

她对着天空大声哭喊
She's dying to survive
使我的心沉重不已

她过着别无选择的生活
Don't know what she's made of
日日忍受着煎熬

忍受着伤痛
I would like to be that brave
索马里有个女人

太阳对她从不留情
She cries to the heaven above
生活在同一片天空下

她却被曝晒至死
There is a stone in my heart
午后的影子拉得好长

仿佛要把她带回去
She lives a life she didn't choose
手里小心翼翼包起来的米粒

是送给她孩子的珍珠
And it hurts like brand-new shoes
仁慈的主啊

发发慈悲吧
Hurts like brand-new shoes
她对着天空大声哭喊

使我的心沉重不已
There is a woman in Somalia
她过着别无选择的生活

日日忍受切肤的煎熬
The sun gives her no mercy
切肤的伤痛

The same sky we lay under

Burns her to the bone

Long as afternoon shadows

It's gonna take her to get home

Each grain carefully wrapped up

Pearls for her little girl

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

She cries to the heaven above

There is a stone in my heart

She lives in a world she didn't choose

And it hurts like brand-new shoes

Hurts like brand-new shoes
