I am heading for a time of quiet 我走向一个安静的时间

When my restlessness is past 当我躁动的过去

And I can lie down on my blanket 我可以在我的毯子躺下

And release my fists at last 然后松开拳头，最后

   

I am heading for a time of solitude 我往独处的时间

Of peace without illusions 不幻想和平

When the perfect circle 当完美的圆

Marries all beginnings and conclusions 结婚万事开头和结论

   

And when they say 当他们说

That you're not good enough 那你不够好

Well the answer is 那么答案是

You're not 你不

But who are they 但他们是谁

Or what is it 或者是什么

That eats at what you've got 那吃什么你有

With the hunger of ambition 有野心的饥饿

For the change inside the purse 对于钱包里的变化

They are handcuffs on the soul, my friends 他们是灵魂，我的朋友手铐

Handcuffs on the soul 手铐的灵魂

And worse 更糟糕的是

   

I am heading for a place of quiet 我往一个地方安静

Where the sage and sweetgrass grow 凡鼠尾草和香草成长

By a lake of sacred water 通过神圣的一湖清水

From the mountain's melted snow 从山上的积雪融化
