Текст и перевод песни 謝安琪 - 潔淨皇后

潔淨皇后

抹過掃過擦過刮過用力弄走污垢
與過重過臭過百計大袋垃圾毆鬥
扭傷腰骨被雜物爛樽整損手
一週七天為活命在屋邨搏鬥

放棄了兩老放棄了舊日熟悉好友
決意帶四歲幼女與異地伴侶聚頭
一出邊境學歷練歷遭打折扣
操鄉音會被視做外星的怪獸

有過夢向上遊 奮發做單車手
怎知與他邂逅 跨境變身潔淨皇后
斷氣為了薄酬 更變賣了自由
心中那小宇宙 不可發揮跌入泥石流

每晚與幼女配偶困在六十呎滯留
有螞蟻有惡臭有眼淚汗液臉上流
開始抑鬱但尚未認識到摰友
夫妻爭執亂罵後大打出手

有過夢向上遊 奮發做單車手
怎知與他邂逅 跨境變身潔淨皇后
斷氣為了薄酬 更變賣了自由
心中那小宇宙 不可發揮變做籠內獸
絕處想拂袖 卻沒法放手

冷眼亦要接受 冷語亦要接受
總之這天以後 專心去當潔淨皇后
已再沒有欲求 已變賣了自由
只想幼女以後 可擺脫這噩運和毒咒
就算要屈就 也未會放手

Cleaning Queen

Rub, sweep, scrub, scrape
Fight dirt and grime by the bag
Sprain my back, cut my hands
Seven days a week, a struggle to survive

Left my parents and friends behind
Brought my four-year-old and met you abroad
Qualifications lost in translation
My accent makes me an alien

I dreamed of cycling
But I met you and became a cleaning queen
Exhausted for a pittance
My dreams crushed, lost in a whirlwind

Trapped in a tiny space with my child and spouse
Surrounded by ants, filth, tears, and sweat
Depression creeps in, but I'm too isolated
We argue, we fight, we hit

I dreamed of cycling
But I met you and became a cleaning queen
Exhausted for a pittance
My dreams caged like a beast
I want to leave, but I can't

I endure the judgment and insults
From now on, I'm just a cleaning queen
No more dreams, no more freedom
I just want my daughter to escape this nightmare
I won't give up, even if it means sacrificing myself
