Strings of balloons
一串气球
Escape from my hands
从我手中逃离
Slipping from my fingertips
从我的指尖滑落
An unexpected gust of wind
突然刮起一阵风
Pushed them through the city sky
推着它们穿过城市的天空
On their way to touch the sun
它们,在去往太阳的路上
It takes me back to when I was a child
这让我回想起小时候
Tying wishes to balloon strings
我把愿望系在气球上
Finding so much magic
去寻找那个神奇
In places they must see
又必须要去的地方
Where will they end up?
它们飘向了哪里呢
Who will find them?
谁将会找到它们呢
I would watch until I couldn’t see them anymore
我会一直看,直到看不见为止
Just a tiny speck
只是一个小斑点
I squint
我眯着眼凝视良久
Then nothing
没有什么
Vanished on their own
会凭空消失
I would dream of their whereabouts the rest of the day
我整天都在想它们的下落
Would I ever see them again?
我还能再见到它们吗
Or have they gone
它们是否已飘走
To Paris
去到巴黎
To Greece
去到希腊
To Egypt
去到埃及
Years passed
时光荏苒
I spotted some balloons stuck high up in a tree
我再次见到气球挂于高树
The magic suddenly disappeared
神奇的魔力却突然消失
Their adventurous lives end so brutally
它们的冒险生活残忍结束
Doing no good for the planet that houses humanity
它们对于住着人类的地球毫无好处
As an adult
成年之后
I still watch balloons become a speck
我仍会看着气球飘远,变成斑点
But the magic of their whereabouts becomes concern
但它们下落的魔力令人担忧
If only we could live as free as those balloons
要是我能化作气球该有多好
Without causing destruction
只要没有破坏就好
