Simple Man

SIMPLE MAN
在我小時候媽媽對我說
Mama told me when I was young:
快來坐在我的身邊我的寶貝兒子
'Come sit beside me' my only son'
仔細聽好我要說的話
and listen closely to what I say
如果做到了那麼在那明媚的未來會讓你受益匪淺
and if you do this it will help you some sunny day.'
雖然人生苦短但不要急功近利
'Oh' take your time' don't live too fast.
風雨總會到來但彩虹緊隨其後
Troubles will come and they will pass.
勇敢追求幸福你會找到真愛
Go find a woman and you'll find love
也千萬別忘了，上天有眼
and don't forget ' son' there is someone up above.'
然後做一個簡單的人吧
'And be a simple kind of man'
成為你想成為並容易理解的那種人吧
oh' be something you love and understand.
寶貝請別活得太複雜
Baby' be a simple kind of man.
哦寶貝你能為了我做到這一點嗎
Oh' won't you do this for me' son' if you can.'
不要被功名利祿蒙蔽雙眼
'Forget your lust for the rich man's gold'
靈魂深處會指引你方向
all that you need is in your soul.
要知道有志者有志者事竟成
And you can do this if you try.
我只想要你明白知足常樂
All that I want for you' my son' is to be satisfied.'
然後做一個簡單的人吧
'And be a simple kind of man'
成為你想成為並容易理解的那種人吧
oh' be something you love and understand.
寶貝請別活得太複雜
Baby' be a simple kind of man.
哦寶貝你能為了我做到這一點嗎
Oh' won't you do this for me' son' if you can.'
寶貝別擔心你一定會找到方向
'Boy' don't you worry' you'll find yourself.
只要跟隨你內心呼喚
Follow your heart and nothing else.
要知道有志者有志者事竟成
And you can do this' oh baby' if you try.
我只想要你明白知足常樂
All that I want for you' my son' is to be satisfied.'
然後做一個簡單的人吧
'And be a simple kind of man'
成為你想成為並容易理解的那種人吧
oh' be something you love and understand.
寶貝請別活得太複雜
Baby' be a simple kind of man.
哦寶貝你能為了我做到這一點嗎
Oh' won't you do this for me' son' if you can.'
