The Rose

手嶌葵

Some say love it is a river

有人说，爱，如流水

That drowns the tender reed

浸润了柔嫩的芦苇

Some say love it is a razor

有人说，爱，似利刃

That leaves your soul to bleed

丢下一个滴血的灵魂

Some say love it is a hunger

有人说，爱，是无尽的欲望

An endless aching need

煎熬无比，却无法自拔

I say love it is a flower

我却说，爱，是绽放的花朵

And you it's only seed

而你是唯一的种子

It's the heart afraid of breaking

这是一颗憔悴的心

That never learns to dance

再也无法忆起那跳动的感觉

It's the dream afraid of waking

这是一个不愿醒来的梦境

That never takes the chance

再无勇气去尝试

It's the one who won't be taken

这是一个不曾离开

Who cannot seem to give

却也不曾给予的人

And the soul afraid of dying

那畏死的灵魂

That never learns to live

再无法生存

When the night has been too lonely

太孤寂的夜

And the road has been too long

太漫长的路

And you think that love is only

你说，爱是唯一

For the lucky and the strong

我们那么幸运，我们矢志不渝

Just remember in the winter

只记得冬日里

Far beneath the bitter snows

当天空中雪花飘飞

Lies the seed that with the sun's love

种子沐浴着阳光的爱,

In the spring becomes the rose

冬去春来，一朵玫瑰，娇艳盛开
