I dreamt I saw a woman 我梦见我看见一个女人

Standing by the strand 站在股

Waiting for her people 等待她的人

To come in from the land 为了从土地中来

   

Waiting there for seven days 等候在那里七天

She built a fire in the sand 她建立了一个火沙

Waiting for her people 等待她的人

To come in from the land 为了从土地中来

   

She had the look of a refugee 她有一个难民的样子

Hiding in her eyes 躲在她的眼睛

And when I tried to talk to her 而当我试图跟她说话

She answered with a cry 她回答了一声

   

And pointed to the water 并指出水

Out beyond the harbour line 出超越港行

Where a thousand ships lay waiting 凡千艘奠定等待

They lay waiting for my sign 他们躺在等着我签

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

I remember days of sunlight 我记得阳光天

With my father by my side 我父亲在我身边

And the children, ran before us 和孩子们，在我们面前跑

Like the foam upon the tide 如在潮泡沫

   

We ran like frightened partridge 我们跑了像受惊的鹧鸪

When the strangers came to talk 当陌生人来说话

Bringing sickness 'round them 瞻病轮他们

And the thunder in their walk 在他们走雷霆

   

We ran into the valleys 我们跑进山谷

And we ran into the hills 我们跑进山

They only ran before us, 他们只跑到我们面前，

Driven by the strangers' will 带动了陌生人的意志

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

   

I'm waiting by the landwash 我被landwash等待

Giant standing near 巨人站在附近

I see them coming always 我看到他们未来的总

Children in their fear 他们怕孩子

   

I'm waiting on my blanket 我在等待我的毯子

And the giant waits with me 和我一起等待巨人

And I will wait here always 我会在这里等待永远

As they fill the endless sea 因为他们填补了无尽之海

   

[Chorus x2] [合唱x ]
