歌曲歌詞
Time歌詞
Money is not evil by itself
錢本身無罪
Its just paper with perceived value to obtain other things we value in other ways
它只是一張感知價值的紙,我們用來獲得其他物品的一種方式
If not money – what is evil you may ask?
如果錢無罪,那你會問什麼有罪?
Evil is the unquenchable, obsessive and moral bending desire for more
罪是止不住的、令人著迷的、道德扭曲的貪慾
Evil is the bottomless, soulless and obsessive-compulsive pursuit of some pot of gold
罪是無止盡的、無靈魂的、強迫性的逐利
at the end of some rainbow which doesn’t exist
那些並不存在的彩虹之巔
Evil is having a price tag for your heart and soul in exchange for financial success at any cost
罪是在交易成功時心和靈魂的價標
Evil is trying to buy happiness, again and again
罪是試圖買回幸福,並樂此不疲
until all of those fake, short lived mirages of emotions are gone
直到那些虛假、短暫的心靈幻境消逝
Make more time
賺取更多時間
I’m not saying you can’t be financially successful
我不是說你不該追求經濟上的成功
I’m saying have a greater purpose in life well beyond the pursuit of financial success
而是說有一個更偉大的生命目標會比追逐金錢上的成功超然
Your soul is screaming for you to answer your true calling
你的靈魂正為你最真切的呼喚而尖叫
You can change today if you redefine what success is to you
你可以改變現在,只要你重新定義何為成功
You can transform your damaged relationships and build new ones
你可以轉變你破損的人際關係並重建
You can forgive yourself and others who’ve hurt you
你可以原諒自己以及那些傷害過你的人
You can become a leader by mentoring with others who you aspire to be like
在你曾渴望成為的那些人的輔導下,你也可以變成一個領袖
You can re-balance your priorities in life
你可以調整生命中的優先權
You can heal your marriage and recreate a stronger love than you ever thought possible
你可以治癒你的婚姻並重建比你想像中更強烈的愛
You can become the best parent possible at any age – even 86
你可以變成最好的父母,甚至到86歲仍是如此
but don’t wait until then…
但別等到那時
You will always be able to make more money
你總會有能力賺更多錢
But you cannot make more time
但你卻不能賺取更多時間
Time(Official)歌詞
Time is the currency of your life, spend it wisely
時間就像是生命的金錢,要學會合理支配
Don’t let others no matter how well intentioned spend it for you, it’s all you’ve got
不要讓別人為你浪費時間,你該自己去處理你應做的
In the end, you may falter, but rest assured, time will not
你最後也許會動搖,但時間不會
Time is an endless, relentless stream, moving in one direction, while your memories move in another
時間在無盡、無情的向前流逝,就像你的記憶一樣
It is not something you choose, but rather, it is something that chooses you
這不是你選擇了事物(時間),而是事物(時間)選擇了你
Ironically, it’s the timeless part of you that understands full well the true value of time
諷刺的是,你對時間價值的全部理解就是,時間是永恆的
Time, more than treasure, is the greatest gift you can give
時間(的意義)並不僅僅是寶藏,更是你能給予(他人)最好的禮物
It’s about time
這就是時間
It’s about time you do what you were put on earth to do
是時候在這顆星球上做你該做的事了
It’s about time you let go of negative people and habits and move to higher ground
是時候放棄那些消極的人和習慣,去重新出發
It’s okay to waste time, but only on things you truly love and enjoy
浪費時間也可以,但也要浪費在你喜愛並且享受的事情上
It’s much too precious to waste on anger and fear
把時間用在恐懼和憤怒上才是最浪費的
Remember time doesn’t change anything, it’s you that changes, everything
要記住,時間的流逝改變不了什麼,只有你能改變一切
We are all traveling through life at the same speed, sixty minutes per hour
我們所有人度過的時間都一樣,一小時都有60分
And if this is not the hour, when will be?
(這個道理)你現在(這一小時不明白),那什麼時候(你才懂)
When will you realize that this is the time of your life?
什麼時候你才能明白時間對於你生命(的意義)
The past is merely a dream and the future merely a prayer
夢想早已留到過去,還在為未來而祈禱?
Your future starts right here, right now, not tomorrow
你的未來應該在當下,是現在,而不是明天!
The most important moment of your life is this one
你人生中最重要的時刻是現在(活在當下)
It’s about time
這才是時間(的意義)
