Like the flowing river - Lars Eriksson

Picture yourself as the flowing river
幻想自己是流动的河流
Nothing ever stays the same
没有什么会永远保持不变
Be like the flowing river
像流动着的河流
Live your life without shame
继续问心无愧地生活
Counting the stars is an impossible task
数清群星的任务遥遥无期
And you won't ever find someone to ask
你也找不到可以询问的人
Reaching out for all that you don't have
努力触及那些你没有的一切
Life is going to give it to you some day
总有一天生活将会赐予你
Flow down the river of yourself
你顺流而下
Everything you pass will be your own
经过的一切都将属于你
And where you will get you'll be leaving
你在哪里得到也将在哪里失去
And nothing in the world is ever owned
这世上没有什么能被永远拥有
Float very peaceful reflect the stars above
静静地流淌 倒映着群星
Tomorrow you might be storming down a hill
明日你或会从山上奔腾而下
And as you flow on you will feel somewhat wider
你在流动时渐觉宽阔
Experiences will fill you up - it's a good thing
经验会充实你 这是件好事
No one ever feels at home
从来没人感觉如家中自在
Home is up above and somewhere else
家是在上面或其它某处地方
A rose isn't something very strong
玫瑰并非坚强之物
But it knows how to carry on
可它知道如何坚持
I used to be like the poisonous stillness
我曾如同有毒的静默
Stuck in the waters of my brain
陷入我脑子里的河流
What drove me from there was fed up with illness
对疾病的厌倦驱使我逃离那
If I stayed I would have gone insane
如果我留下我会疯的
And I know that life won't give me anything
我明白生活不会给予我所有
But good and bad
但是无论好与坏
It's all that I will get it's all that I ever had
这是我将会得到的一切 这是我曾拥有的一切
And I feel so grateful for all that I meet
我对遇到的一切都心怀感激
It's as if I was never born alone
似乎我从未独自降临世间
