Lyrics and translation Hacken Lee - 飢餓的毛毛蟲

飢餓的毛毛蟲

毛毛蟲 從何時 時常吃也不夠總要吃更多
毛毛蟲 從童年 年年活到今天也日日挨餓
吃夠了 變懶惰 連蠕動也不動只愛原地坐
搖兩下頭 亦覺太生疏

平凡人 常同情 毛蟲吃了一輩不禁太可悲
毛毛蟲 很清楚 吃喝全為作繭羽化去準備
待某一天春風吹過後 有朵花 等你
重振翅膀曼舞搖曳 穿梭花蕊芬芳香氣

誰敢取笑你的卑微 誰會藐視你的貼地
忘記昨日眼光怎睇少你 今天轉個身 便遠飛
誰猜得透你的演技 獨個作繭自縛 笑罵任人看不起
當四處野花香味 溢滿空氣 望過去 沒白費心機

從孩童 而成年 回頭看彷彿只不過數百天
揸飛機 坐火箭 一堆童夢理想哪個有出現
習慣一天一天失與敗 已不想出戰
回看幼蟲 無遺餘力 唏噓嗟嘆可免則免

誰敢取笑你的卑微 誰會藐視你的貼地
忘記昨日眼光怎睇少你 今天轉個身 便遠飛
誰猜得透你的演技 獨個作繭自縛 笑罵任人看不起
轉個臉便忘記

成長不免踫灰一鼻 行過赤道置身雪地
就算世俗眼光怎睇少你 擔當小角色 更爭氣
難關將至無需躲避 遙遙長路未發生的總滿佈驚喜
仿似毛毛蟲亦會 變成為蝴蝶的真理 成就了你

會有天高飛 會更了不起 風景多優美

The Hungry Caterpillar

Caterpillar, since when have you always been hungry, always wanting more?
Caterpillar, since childhood, year after year, you've lived to this day, still hungry every day.
You've eaten enough, you've become lazy, you don't even move, you just love to sit in one place.
You shake your head twice, you feel too unfamiliar.

Ordinary people often sympathize with the caterpillar, eating for a lifetime, it's too pitiful.
Caterpillar, you know very well that eating and drinking are all for preparing to spin a cocoon and transform into a butterfly.
One day, when the spring breeze blows, there will be a flower waiting for you.
Spread your wings and dance gracefully, fluttering among the fragrant flowers.

Who dares to laugh at your humbleness, who will despise your proximity to the ground?
Forget how people looked down on you yesterday, today you turn around and fly away.
Who can guess your acting, you alone spin a cocoon, accept laughter and scolding, people look down on you.
When the fragrance of wild flowers fills the air, look around, your efforts haven't been in vain.

From childhood to adulthood, looking back, it seems like only a few hundred days.
Flying a plane, riding a rocket, which of your childhood dreams has come true?
Used to losing and failing every day, I no longer want to fight.
Looking back at the larva, no effort is spared, sighs and lamentations are avoided if possible.

Who dares to laugh at your humbleness, who will despise your proximity to the ground?
Forget how people looked down on you yesterday, today you turn around and fly away.
Who can guess your acting, you alone spin a cocoon, accept laughter and scolding, people look down on you.
Turn your face and forget.

Growth inevitably encounters gray noses, crossing the equator and being in the snow.
Even if worldly eyes look down on you, playing a small role, you're even more ambitious.
When difficulties approach, there's no need to hide, the long road ahead, the unforeseen is full of surprises.
Just like the caterpillar, it will also become a butterfly, a truth that has made you.

You will fly high someday, you will be even more amazing, the scenery will be so beautiful.
