Jolin Tsai: Sky

蔡依林

-天空-

听着自己的心跳
没有规则的跳跃
我安静的在思考
并不想被谁打扰

失去了你的拥抱
寂寞再一旁嘲笑
他笑我无处可逃
我变的好渺小

时间分割成对角
停止你对我的好
瓦解我们的依靠

在你离开之后的天空
不曾在有晴朗的梦
雨后的天空
是否在有放晴后的笑容
我静静的望着天空
试着寻找遗留的彩虹
哭过的面容
期待着久违出现的笑容

HOME

Accept and you become whole,
Bend and you straighten,
Empty and you fill,
Decay and you renew,
Want and you acquire,
Fulfill and you become confused.

The sage accepts the world
As the world accepts the Way;
He does not display himself, so is clearly seen,
Does not justify himself, so is recognized,
Does not boast, so is credited,
Does not pride himself, so endures,
Does not contend, so none contend against him.

The ancients said, "Accept and you become whole",
Once whole, the world is as your home.
