生命頌歌

今天是世界地球日，身為地球人的我們，該為踩在腳底下的大地做些甚麼，去喚醒久遠的、幾乎快要絕滅的責任，然後用盡一生、用盡一切去愛它？

我們希望將如此的心願傳達出去，將繼承的生命延續下去，因此，一首生命頌歌就此誕生，並且不斷被吟唱，被吟唱……


A Song is born

遙遠遙遠的數億年前
地球誕生在好久以前

在反覆上演的歷史裡
我們繼承了生命

我能做的只是從這地方
藉著吟唱這首歌
來傳達

請再次想起
我們的地球她原來的模樣
然後請別再忘記
千萬千萬別忘記

大家所冀求的
相信不是這麼多

只希望人人能懷抱著自己的花朵
只希望有一天花朵能燦爛綻放

我能做的只是從這地方
藉著吟唱這首歌
來傳達

只希望你能稍稍
側耳聆聽

請再次想起
在淚水中同時誕生降臨的

你的夢想和對明日的希望
是的這一切全都在這地球上

我能做的只是從這地方
藉著吟唱這首歌
來傳達

只希望你能稍稍
側耳聆聽

請再次想起
我們的地球她原來的模樣
然後請別再忘記
千萬千萬別忘記


In the distant past, billions of years ago
This Earth was born

In the repeating history
We have inherited life

Though I can do nothing
But deliver this song
From such a place as this

Remember once again
How our Earth should be
And please don't forget
Please, please don't forget

Certainly, certainly
No one has ever wanted so much

They have just wanted to bloom some day
Holding each flower in their arms

Though I can do nothing
But deliver this song
From such a place as this

I would be pleased
If you would listen even just a minute

Remember once again
We were born crying
Your dreams and hopes for tomorrow
Are all on this Earth

Though I can do nothing
But deliver this song
From such a place

I would be pleased
If you would listen even just a minute

Remember once again
How our Earth should be
And please don't forget
Please, please don't forget
