Written by：Peter Hammill

Mean while my mother
与此同时，我的母亲
Waiting for what
在等待着什么
I don't know
我并不知晓
The recall of a favourite memory
是在回忆一段美好的记忆
Or perhaps for a painful one to go
还是在等待一段痛苦的记忆消逝
She doesn't let that much show
她并未表露太多
Mean while above her head
与此同时，在她头顶
All my monologues flows
我的独白在流淌
What's that you're saying dear
亲爱的，你在说什么呢
Wading through time like it's treacle
在时光的泥沼中蹒跚前行
Her eyes looking into mine although
她的眼睛凝视着我
She won't even notice me go
却不会注意到我的离去
In the mean time I pack her things up
与此同时，我收拾着她的东西
And get them ready to store
准备将它们妥善存放
In between times I take a good look around
在这期间，我仔细环顾四周
For we'll not be visiting here much more
因为我们不会再常来此地了
Mean while my mother
与此同时，我的母亲
Distance encamped in her eyes
眼中充满了距离感
Not quite oblivious but
并非全然不知 而是
Close to a state of inertia
接近一种静止的状态
In which she won't even realise
在这种状态下 她甚至不会意识到
How everything's passing her by
一切都在她身边流逝
Mean while my mother
与此同时，我的母亲
Lost in a world of her own
迷失在自己的世界里
Turns to look out of the window
转身望向窗外
Down to the verdant earth below
俯瞰着下方翠绿的大地
Some journeys we make alone
有些旅程我们必须独自前行
Somehow we'll leave all we've known
不知怎的，我们将离开所有熟悉的事物
Mean while my mother
与此同时，我的母亲
Waiting for what
在等待着什么
Time to go
是时候离开了
