On The Wings Of A Dream - John Denver (约翰·丹佛)

Yesterday I had a dream about dying

我昨天梦见死去

About laying to rest and then flying

躺着休息然后飞起

How the moment at hand

为何当前手上掌握的时刻

Is the only thing we really own

是我们唯一真正拥有的东西

And I lay in my bed and I wonder

我躺在床上疑惑着

After all has been said and is done for

在说完和做完一切以后

Why is it thus we are here

为什么我们在这里

And so soon we are gone

并很快就要离开呢

Is this life just a path

是否人生只是一个方向

To the place that we all have come from

指引我们从哪里来就回到哪里去

Does the heart know the way

心认识路吗

And if not can it ever be found

In a smile or a tear

Or a prayer or a sigh or a song

And so I sing for my father

We could fly on the wings of a dream

To a place where the spirit could find us

And joy and surrender would bind us
