I'm home again in my old narrow bed 我家又在我的老窄的床

Where I grew tall and my feet hung over the end 我生长的地方高，我的脚挂在年底

The low beam room with the window looking out 近光室的窗户往外看

On the soft summer garden 在柔软的夏日花园

Where the boys grew in the trees 当男孩在树上长大

   

Here I grew guilty 在这里，我从小有罪

And no one was at fault 没有人有过错

Frightened by the power in every innocent thought 由功率在每一个无辜的想法吓坏了

And the silent understanding passing down 和沉默的理解传承

From daughter to daughter 从女儿的女儿

Let the boys grow in the trees 让孩子们在树上生长

   

Do you go to them or do you let them come to you 你去找他们，还是你让他们来找你

Do you stand in back afraid that you'll intrude 你站在后面怕你会打扰

Deny yourself and hope someone will see 否定自己，希望有人会看到

And live like a flower 和生活像花儿一样

While the boys grew in the trees 而男孩在树上长大

   

Last night I slept in sheets the colour of fire 昨天晚上，我在床单睡火的颜色

Tonight I lie alone again and curse my own desires 今晚我独自躺在再次诅咒自己的欲望

Sentenced first to burn and then to freeze 先判烧，然后冻结

And watch by the window 并通过窗口观察

Where the boys grew in the trees 当男孩在树上长大
