In a tree by the brook, there’s a songbird who sings,

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.

In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,

And the voices of those who standing looking.
還有聲音背后佇立凝望的身影
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
我很疑惑
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And the forests will echo with laughter.
笑聲在森林里回蕩
If there’s a bustle in your hedgerow, don’t be alarmed now,
假如你的樹籬大亂,請(qǐng)別驚慌
It’s just a spring clean for the May queen.
那是春天在為五月女皇沐浴
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run

There’s still time to change the road you’re on.
你依然還有時(shí)間改變你的選擇
And it makes me wonder.

The piper’s calling you to join him,
那吹笛人正在召喚你
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
親愛的女士你聽見風(fēng)在低吟嗎,你是否知道
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
你的梯子就在那低吟的風(fēng)中
solo…… (吉他間奏)
And as we wind on down the road
當(dāng)我們沿著路風(fēng)一般的前行
Our shadows taller than our soul.

To be a rock and not to roll.
做一塊磐石吧,而不是隨波逐流
