歌词
God, I've been sent here blind to learn to see,
上帝,我盲然于此只为学习去看
Remembering you were always there with me.
我明白你一直与我同在
But do you know just how hard that's been?
但你可知道这其中艰辛?
Could all of this have really been foreseen?
是否一切都曾被预见?
I'd like to say a prayer, how does it go?
我的祷告,去向哪里?
I'm tired. Tell me, God, does it show?
我疲倦了。上帝,告诉我,它们可曾出现?
What could have called for such a handicap?
该如何称这般困难?
I was sent out here without a map.
我被指引于此却迷失方向
All this time I've had to guess the way,
我唯有猜测道路
To keep moving when I wished to stay.
心愿留下而脚下前行
I've been wrong as much as I've been right.
对错参半
You tell me: ‘Walk by faith and not by sight,
你告诉我:跟随信仰而非视线
And keep your heavy heart afloat.
使沉重的心轻浮于上
You are a timber carved by knife,
想象自己是被雕琢的木料
But someday you may serve as a boat.'
但某天也许能成舟
What I lose here on earth…
人间丢失的一切
Is lost in heaven.
也必迷失于天堂
If I ask you for help…
若我向你求助
it will be given.
必会得到指引
But you've waited this long…
但你等了这许久
you weren't ready.
也依然未准备充分
My devotion was strong…
我有非凡的信念
it wasn't steady.
只是不够坚定
I have one more question…
我仍有一个疑问
…you have the answer too.
答案也在你手中
But what does that mean?
但如何解其中意义?
You're I, and I am you.
你就是我,而我是你
Why speak in riddles?
为什么让人猜谜?
Then let me show the way.
给我指明道路
That's all I've wanted.
就是我唯一所求
That's all you've had to say.
就是你应给答案
Well come on then, God, show me,
上帝,指引我吧
Which way you would like me to go,
你希望我选择哪条路
And I won't resume to question,
我不会再发问
How I was ever supposed to know.
我本该知晓
There have been signs along the way,
跟随那沿途的路标
But they've been so very obscure.
但它们模糊难辨
At times I thought I knew their meaning,
有时我感觉自己通晓其中意义
But how could I've ever been sure?
但我又该如何确定
God, I was sent here deaf to learn to hear,
上帝,我聋然于此只为学习去听
To have faith in you and never fear.
为信任你而不再畏惧
Life is an ocean, you its every wave,
生活是片海洋,你是每朵浪花
Your arms would cradle me, and keep me safe.
你的手臂是我的摇篮,呵护我
You're right, all this, and more I need to learn,
你是这一切的对,是我学不尽的课本
All this unease just makes my stomach churn.
一切不安只是使我的胃翻腾
It was I not you who set this trap,
是我而非你设下了这陷阱
But you did leave me here without a map.
但你确实让我迷失在这里
All this time I've had to guess the way,
我唯有猜测道路
To keep moving when I wished to stay.
心愿留下而脚下前行
I've been right as much as I've been wrong,
对错参半
So all I hear from you is: ‘You are strong enough,
我只听到你说:“你不够强大”
For all you'll ever have to face,
在这一切苦难面前
The only map you need is Love,
唯一的地图是爱
To guide you through this illusion of a maze.'
指引你穿过幻觉的迷宫
Our Father, who art in heaven,
我们在天上的父
Hallowed be thy name.
愿人都尊你的名为圣
Thy kingdom come,
愿你的国降临
Thy will be done,
愿你的旨意
On earth, as it is in heaven,
行在地上,如同行在天上
Give us today our daily bread,
我们日用的饮食,今日赐给我们
Forgive us, Father, all our sins,
免我们的债,神父
As we forgive those who sin against us,
如同我们免了人的债
And lead us not into temptation,
不叫我们遇见试探
But deliver us from evil, for thy is the kingdom,
救我们脱离凶恶,因为国度
And the power, and the glory,
权柄,荣耀,全是你的
Now and forever more,
直到永远
Amen.
