Outside I can hear the fireworks 门外的我能听到烟花

Beyond the paper walls 除了纸墙

Where the symbols painted black and white 凡符号涂成黑色和白色

Run together when the rain falls 一起运行时雨瀑布

And the wind chimes across Kyoto 和整个京都的风铃

Each time the earth moves 每次地球移动

Was it the quake that shook me 是它震撼了我地震

Or was it something to do with you 或者是它是与你

   

And the hot wind heats the bamboo blinds 和热风加热竹窗帘的

And your almond eyes always shine 和你的杏眼总是闪耀

Sitting cool behind your painted fan 坐在阴凉的画扇背后

All the secrets of the east 东部的所有秘密

Conceal the beauty and the beast 隐瞒美女与野兽

For tender is the man in her Japanese hands 招标是男人在她手中的日本

   

Flesh on silk looks different 肉体上的丝绸看起来不一样

Than on a cotton sheet back home 比在棉片回家

Where no one wears their hair like yours 如果没有一个人戴他们的头发像你

Beneath those oriental combs 下面这些东方梳子

And with your thirsty fingers 并与您的手指渴

Running up and down my spine 跑上跑下我的脊椎

You forget the western woman 您忘了西方女人

When you're sleeping on Kyoto time 当你睡在京都的时间

   

And the sky explodes 和天空爆炸

and the moon grows cold 月亮变寒

To the distant sound of drums 要鼓的声音遥远

And the sky explodes 和天空爆炸

And the moon grows cold 和月亮变寒

As the dragons on the mainland 至于在大陆的龙

Wait to heat the sun 等待加热太阳
