Paroles et traduction 李克勤 - 天水、圍城

天水、圍城

圍住了的血汗 圍住了的跌宕
圍住了當初的厚望
圍住了的駭浪 圍住了的症狀
圍住了才易碰撞

他的一對父母 來又往
跨鄉過岸 才住這麼一角
越來越惡

圍住了冰雹 圍住了刻薄
圍住了爭吵的配樂
圍住了升學 圍住了收穫
圍住了便了解何謂罪惡
自成一國 但見他 找尋快樂
然後卻 越來越渴 越來越覺
沒能力去闖出沙漠

誰策劃這寸地尺土 人擠逼中便容易退步
他親身真正感到 尺地寸金
人便會無餘地平和獨舞
要見步行步 無車票又怎去覓去路
赤地太濕 這地球沒芳草
文明繁盛有甚麼好

圍住了可向下 圍住了可向上
圍住了都可找對象
圍住了可以做 同伴裡的偶像
圍住了沒電腦可思想

氣候太涼 像殘酷得天生等天養
怨恨 暴燥 壓抑 唯有 記住 人靜便心涼

誰策劃這寸地尺土 人擠逼中便容易退步
他親身真正感到 尺地寸金
人便會無餘地平和獨舞
要見步行步 無車票又怎去覓去路
赤地太濕 這地球沒芳草
仍然留在故地多好

願國寶 領會到 沒看倌 仍獨舞
唯願他 能跟相戀的共同上路

誰憑權力照料 這寸地尺土
難為他不管平日惡耗
他親身感覺得到 尺地寸金
人便會無餘地平和獨舞
要見步行步 無車票又怎去覓去路
赤地太濕 這地球沒芳草 全憑勤力上路

圍住了的國度 圍住了的血路
圍住了他都肯照做
牆沒有給拆掉 城沒有給棄掉
牆令到他攀登進步

The Heavens' Bastion, the Enclosed City

Enclosed sweat, enclosed pounding
Enclosed high hopes
Enclosed waves, enclosed symptoms
Enclosed, therefore striking

His parents came and went
Crossed over the river's bank, only to live in this corner
Growingly vile

Enclosed hailstones, enclosed snarkiness
Enclosed the quarrel's background music
Enclosed college entry, enclosed reaping
Enclosed, therefore understanding evil's nature
A sovereign state of its own I see him seeking joy
Then thirsting more and more, aware
Of the powerlessness to escape the desert

Who planned this tiny patch, in the crush it's easy to regress
He truly felt the land's worth
People live with no room to spare and dance alone
To move forward you need a ticket, but where's the path
The barren soil too damp, this Earth has no green
What's so great about thriving civilization

Enclosed to go below, enclosed to go above
Enclosed to find a match
Enclosed to be an idol among companions
Enclosed, no computers for thought

A climate too cold, cruelly waiting for nature to provide
Resentment, rage, repression, only remember how hearts chill in silence

Who planned this tiny patch, in the crush it's easy to regress
He truly felt the land's worth
People live with no room to spare and dance alone
To move forward you need a ticket, but where's the path
The barren soil too damp, this Earth has no green
So good to stay in the homeland

May the precious son realize, with no audience still dancing
May he be able to go together with his beloved

Who has the power to care for this tiny patch
It's hard for him to ignore daily miseries
He truly felt the land's worth
People live with no room to spare and dance alone
To move forward you need a ticket, but where's the path
The barren soil too damp, this Earth has no green, only hard work on the path

Enclosed nation, enclosed bloody path
Enclosed, he's willing to follow
The wall wasn't torn down, the city wasn't abandoned
The wall made him climb and progress
