The Gathering (会合) - Matthew Lien

Moving on in timeless rhythm
Gathering to join as one
Over trails the past has given
Underneath an Arctic sun
An exodus most unforgiving
An epic joumey unsurpassed
Calving brings a new beginning
Yet for others, this will be the last
The days, unending, run together
To hail this great assemblage proud
Like birds of a feather, flocked together
To run across a velvet cloud
Snow and ice and river surging
Frame the path that calls their name
As cows and calves, and bulls converging
Return to grace the Coastal Plain
All the mysteries ever pondered
Great adventures ever told
Fail to rival the survival
Of a pilgrimage so brave and bold
依著远古韵律前行
合而为一
走在前人的小径上
走在北极的阳光下
最不可免的一次出发
前所未有的史诗之旅
小鹿们在此开始新生命
但部份小鹿却是最后一段
时光流逝不歇，和鹿群齐奔
向这豪气万丈的一群欢呼致意
如飞羽群集，一起
奔越天鹅绒云朵
白雪、寒冰、河水奔流不停
形成路径一条，呼名唤姓
让母鹿、小鹿、公鹿聚集
回到岸边平原恩宠之地
所有百思不得其解的秘密，和
传唱不已的的伟大冒险故事
与此勇气过人的朝圣之旅相比
不值一提
