From A Distance

From a distance the world looks blue and green,
在遠方，世界藍色而暗淡
and the snow-capped mountains white.
白雪覆蓋山頂
From a distance the ocean meets the stream,
在遠方，百川匯入大海
and the eagle takes to flight.
蒼鷹展翅高飛

在遠方，聆聽天籟
From a distance, there is harmony,
迴響大地
and it echoes through the land.
那是希望之音，那是和平之聲
Its the voice of hope, its the voice of peace,
那是每個人的聲音
its the voice of every man.
在遠方，我們都很滿足

人無欲求
From a distance we all have enough,
沒有槍，沒有砲彈，沒有疾病
and no one is in need.
沒有嗷嗷待哺的嘴巴
And there are no guns, no bombs, and no disease,
在遠方，我們是樂器
no hungry mouths to feed.
共鳴於同一樂隊

演奏那希望之音，演奏那和平之聲
From a distance we are instruments
每個人的聲音
marching in a common band.
上帝在註視我們，上帝在註視我們
Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace.
上帝在遠處注視著我們
Theyre the songs of every man.
在遠方，我們好似朋友
God is watching us. God is watching us.
儘管我們身處戰爭
God is watching us from a distance.
在遠方，我無法理解

我們到底為何而戰
From a distance you look like my friend,
在遠方，聆聽天籟
even though we are at war.
迴響大地
From a distance I just cannot comprehend
那是希望之音，那是愛之所愛
what all this fighting is for.
每個人的聲音

那是希望之音，那是愛之所愛
From a distance there is harmony,
每個人的聲音
and it echoes through the land.
上帝在註視我們，上帝在註視我們
And its the hope of hopes, its the love of loves,
上帝在遠處注視著我們
its the heart of every man.
哦，上帝在註視我們，上帝在註視我們

上帝在遠處注視著我們
Its the hope of hopes, its the love of loves.
This is the song of every man.
And God is watching us, God is watching us,
God is watching us from a distance.
Oh, God is watching us, God is watching.
God is watching us from a distance.
