Shi Wen Ji Liu Lang Ji - 古巨基 traduction en anglais

Shi Wen Ji Liu Lang Ji

他把我亂拋於報章的臉上
十蚊雞買到 人間千百相
他只看着每段財經的現象
恆指可會上 銀包可會漲

然後他將世界要聞放在地上
忽視我換到眼界的雪亮
人類很愛帶我去投註站幻想
難道我只配 令錢再 澎漲

一位女士怕令錢袋給負累
十蚊雞太重 拿給乞丐去
這乞丐換到食物仿彿玩具
麪包那麼脆 逐粒擺肚裏

其實畢竟我會救人免人受罪
可令這拾荒者吃飽進睡
其實濕碎似我價值看落在誰
如實際需要 誰驚我 零碎

仍然難明是到過年時
以我當禮品 會令到人人
嫌為何吝嗇得敢將我獻世
極貪心 全部恨美金

今天我讓主人在機舖玩樂
恨他只有這 唯一的寄托
改天我為某段情占蔔下落
願她可發覺 情感的線索

誰亦可倚靠我去忘記曾寂寞
可是我未必會買到快樂
誰又想擴闊我帶來狹窄目光
無限個的我 無非變 幻覺

我價值 大細都因你
太迷我 你只跟我至死
我偉大 令世間景氣
我罪惡 在催生了劫匪

你安心 我可幫到你
你貪心 我可主宰你
你好心 我可給捐去 救天地
(但願別為我憂 別獨獨為我喜)

其實我不過 是一塊 行李 (money money)
足夠 便足以 忘記 (money money)
Money 和生命怎比

Paper Wanderer

He threw me onto the face of the newspaper
Ten dollars can buy a thousand different faces of the world
He only watches the financial news
Will the stock market rise? Will my wallet grow?

Then he threw the world news onto the ground
Ignoring how much it opened my eyes
Humans love to bring me to the betting shop to dream
Am I only worthy of making money grow?

A woman was afraid I would burden her bag
Ten dollars is too heavy, she gave it to the beggar
That beggar turned me into food, like a toy
The bread was so crispy, she ate it all

Actually, I can save people from suffering
I can let this scavenger eat his fill and go to sleep
In fact, my value depends on who finds me
For practical needs, who would be afraid of me, even if I'm tattered?

It's still hard to understand when it's New Year's
When I'm used as a gift, it makes everyone think
Why are you so stingy as to give me away?
So greedy, all they care about is the almighty dollar

Today I let my owner play in the arcade
I hate that this is his only hobby
Tomorrow I'll tell fortunes about love
I hope she can find a clue to her emotions

Everyone can rely on me to forget their loneliness
But I may not buy happiness
Who wants to broaden their horizons if I only give them a narrow view?
Endless versions of me are nothing more than illusions

My worth, big or small, depends on you
If you're obsessed with me, you'll follow me until death
I make the world prosperous
I'm the sin that feeds the criminals

Don't worry, I can help you
If you're greedy, I can control you
If you're kind, I can be donated to save the world
(But please don't worry about me, don't be happy just for me)

Actually, I'm just a piece of baggage (money money)
Enough is enough to forget (money money)
How can money compare to life?
