Written by：Peter Garrett

Just as the tall tree stands unmoved by daily passions
恰如参天古木 静默于尘世喧嚣之外
Just as the sky's a roof over our heads
恰如苍穹为顶 覆护众生
Just as we navigate the shoals of those discussions
恰如我们穿行于言语交锋的险滩
There's no more rights to wrong we're meeting in our heads
是非界限消融 在思绪交汇处
All we ever needed is in this place
我们所需的一切 皆在此处
I'm rolling back like a monk that's taken holy vows
我如受戒僧侣 虔诚退守本心
I've jumped aboard the here and now I'm back
我已投入当下 归来如初
I'm rolling back
我正回溯归途
Like a Boeing safely landed a vessel that's been stranded I'm back
如安全降落的波音客机 似脱困的搁浅船只 我已归来
I found out kinda late I found out kinda slow
我发觉得有些迟 领悟得有些慢
No pride in circumstance no feelings did I show
不为处境骄傲 也不显露情绪
I did some desert time a slowing down the mind
我历经荒漠时光 让心灵沉静
And then I caught a wave to carry me back
而后乘浪而归
All we ever needed is in this place
我们所需的一切 皆在此处
I'm rolling back like a choirboy with a lust for life
我正翩然回归 如渴慕生命的唱诗班少年
A cherry picker reaching ripe I'm back
我如摘樱桃的人满载而归
I'm rolling back
我正回溯归途
Like a kingfish spitting out the hook
犹如那挣脱鱼钩的王鱼
I'm coming round for a second look
我再次审视，重回故地
I'm back
我已归来
I'm rolling back
我正回溯归途
Like an astronaut's moon landing like a swamp that you can stand in
如同宇航员登月般抵达，又似可涉足的沼泽般安稳
I'm rolling back
我正回溯归途
Replete with all my foibles no catastrophe avoided
满载我所有瑕疵，未曾躲过任何灾难
I'm back
我已归来
I'm back
我已归来
Like Muhammad Ali's punching bag or Rupert Murdoch's latest swag
如穆罕默德·阿里的拳靶，或鲁珀特·默多克的崭新战利品
A counselor still listening a prisoner forgiven
如仍在倾听的顾问，如被赦免的囚犯
A farmer praying for some rain blocking existential pain
如农夫祈盼甘霖，抵挡生命之痛
Like Genghis who was known as khan a pile up on the autobahn
如被尊为可汗的成吉思汗，如高速公路上的连环相撞
Like a scientist counting galaxies a mother with more mouths to feed
如数尽星河的科学家，如需哺育更多子女的母亲
Like the rainbow serpent on the run the baggy green still chewing gum
如彩虹灵蛇般奔行不息，绿衫军团依旧嚼着口香糖
The early morning rising sun built to last and born to run
清晨旭日初升，经久不衰，生而驰骋
A microsecond's worth of fun I think I heard the starter's gun
刹那的欢愉，我仿佛听见发令枪响
I'm back
我已归来
Yes I'm back
是的，我回来了
