I hired a coach to take me from confusion to the plane 我雇一个教练带我从混乱到平面

And though we shared a common space I know I'll never meet again 虽然我们有着共同的空间，我知道我永远不会再见面

The driver with his eyebrows furrowed in the rear-view mirror 他的眉毛紧锁司机在后视镜

I read his name and it was plainly written Nathan La Franeer 我读了他的名字，它是明明白白写弥敦道香格里拉Franeer

I asked him would he hurry 我问他，他会着急

But we crawled the canyons slowly 但是，我们爬的慢峡谷

Thru the buyers and the sellers 通的买家和卖家

Thru the burglar bells and the wishing wells 直通防盗铃和许愿井

With gangs and girly shows 随着帮派和少女的表演

The ghostly garden grows 幽灵般的花园里成长

   

The cars and buses bustled thru the bedlam of the day 汽车和公交车直通忙碌了一天的喧闹

I looked thru window-glass at streets and Nathan grumbled at the grey 我看着直通窗口玻璃在街道和弥敦道抱怨的灰色

I saw an aging cripple selling Superman balloons 我看到一个老跛子卖超人气球

The city grated thru chrome-plate 城市通磨碎镀铬板

The clock struck slowly half-past-noon 时钟敲了慢半过去，中午

Thru the tunnel tiled and turning 直通隧道瓷砖和车削

Into daylight once again I am escaping 到白天再一次我逃跑

Once again goodbye 再次告别

To symphonies and dirty trees 以交响乐和肮脏的树

With parks and plastic clothes 随着园区和塑料衣服

The ghostly garden grows 幽灵般的花园里成长

   

He asked me for a dollar more 他问我要一块钱

He cursed me to my face 他大骂我我的脸

He hated everyone who paid to ride 他讨厌大家谁支付给骑

And share his common space 并分享了他的公共空间

I picked my bags up from the curb 我拿起我的包从路边

And stumbled to the door 跌跌撞撞门

Another man reached out his hand 另一名男子伸出手

Another hand reached out for more 另一只手伸出更多的

And I filled it full of silver 我填这满银

And I left the fingers counting 我离开了手指计数

And the sky goes on forever 和天空那张永远

Without meter maids and peace parades 如果不计女佣与和平游行

   

You feed it all your woes 你给它所有的困境

The ghostly garden grows 幽灵般的花园里成长
