THE ROSE

The Rose - 平井堅 (ひらい けん)

Some say love it is a river

有人说爱是一条江河

That drowns the tender reed

柔弱的芦苇只能淹没

Some say love it is a razor

有人说爱是一把利刃

That leaves your soul to bleed

划伤了你滴血的灵魂

Some say love it is a hunger

有人说爱是一种饥乏

An endless aching need

不停的叨扰令你虚空

I say love it is a flower

我却说爱是一朵鲜花

And you , its only seed

你是它那唯一的花种

It's the heart afraid of breaking

若一颗心害怕碎裂

That never learns to dance

它永远不会舞蹈雀跃

It's the dream afraid of waking

若一场梦害怕惊醒

That never takes the chance

它永远不会付诸实现

It's the one who won't be taken

若一个人从未失去

Who cannot seem to give

他永远不会伸手付出

And the soul afraid of dying

若一个灵魂害怕死亡

That never learns to live

它永远不会开始生活

When the night has been too lonely

当黑夜漫漫孤独袭来

And the road has been too long

当路途遥远前途渺茫

And you think that love is only

当你觉得真正的爱

For the lucky and the strong

只会因幸运或因意坚力强

Just remember in the winter

请铭记在严冬之中

Far beneath the bitter snows

在冰雪之下层层深冷

Lies the seed that with the sun's love

有一颗种子等待阳光

In the spring becomes the rose

待到春日会有玫瑰绽放
