So you speak to me in sadness

And the coming of the winter

Fear that is within you

Now it seems to never end
現在這些似乎永遠不會結束
And the dreams that have escaped you

And the hope that youve forgotten

You tell me that you need me now
你告訴我你現在需要我
And you want to be my friend
你想成為我的朋友
And you wonder where were going
你想知道我們要去哪裡
Wheres the rhyme, wheres the reason?
韻律在哪裡,原因在哪裡?
And its you cannot accept
這些是你所不能承受的
It is here we must begin

To seek the wisdom of the children
尋求赤子之心
And the graceful way of flowers in the wind
尋求風中飄蕩的鮮花之路
For the children and the flowers

All my sisters and my brothers
為了我全部的姊妹和兄弟
Their laughter and their loveliness

Could clear a cloudy day

Like the music of the mountains

And the colors of the rainbow

Theyre a promise of the future

And the blessing for today

Though the city start to crumble

And the towers fall around us

The sun is slowly fading

And its colder than the sea
比大海更冷
It is written, from the desert
那裡寫著:從荒漠
To the mountains they shall lead us
到高山,他們引領著我們
By the hands and by the hearts
我們手牽手,心連心
They will comfort you and me
他們用純真和信賴
In their innocence and trusting
來安慰我和你
They will teach us to be free

For the children and the flowers
為了孩子和花兒
All my sisters and my brothers

And the song that I am singing

Is a prayer to nonbelievers
是一曲對無信仰者的禱告
Come and stand beside us
來加入我們
We can find a better way
