Written by：Holland'[00:00:14]

I rode out on a bright May morning[00:00:14]

我在一个明媚的五月早晨出门[00:00:16]

Like a hero in a song[00:00:16]

就像歌里的英雄[00:00:19]

Looking for a place called England[00:00:19]

寻找一个叫做英格兰的地方[00:00:22]

Trying to find where I belong[00:00:22]

试图找到我的归属[00:00:25]

Couldn't find the old flood meadow[00:00:25]

找不到那片泛红的草地[00:00:28]

Or the house that I once knew[00:00:28]

或是我曾经熟悉的房子[00:00:31]

No trace of the little river[00:00:31]

没有河流的痕迹[00:00:34]

Or the garden where I grew[00:00:34]

或是我成长的花园[00:00:42]

I saw town and I saw country[00:00:42]

我见过城镇我见过乡村[00:00:45]

Motorway and sink estate[00:00:45]

高速公路和豪宅[00:00:47]

Rich man in his rolling acres[00:00:47]

腰缠万贯的男人[00:00:50]

Poor man still outside the gate[00:00:50]

可怜的人还在门外[00:00:53]

Retail park and burger kingdom[00:00:53]

Prairie field and factory farm[00:00:56]

大草原和工厂农场[00:00:59]

Run by men who think that England's[00:00:59]

都是些自以为是的家伙[00:01:01]

Only a place to park their car[00:01:01]

只有一个地方可以停车[00:01:09]

But as the train pulled from the station[00:01:09]

当火车驶出车站[00:01:12]

Through the wastelands of despair[00:01:12]

穿越绝望的荒原[00:01:15]

From the corner of my eye[00:01:15]

从我的眼角余光[00:01:18]

A brightness filled the filthy air[00:01:18]

一片光明充斥着肮脏的空气[00:01:21]

Someone's grown a patch of sunflowers[00:01:21]

有人种了一片向日葵[00:01:24]

Though the soil is sooty black[00:01:24]

Right beside the railway track[00:01:30]

Down behind the terraced houses[00:01:37]

在露台房子后面[00:01:40]

In between the concrete towers[00:01:40]

在混凝土塔之间[00:01:43]

Compost heaps and scarlet runners[00:01:43]

一堆堆的肥和鲜红的灯芯草[00:01:46]

Secret gardens full of flowers[00:01:46]

开满鲜花的秘密花园[00:01:49]

Meeta grows the scent of roses[00:01:49]

Eileen turns away and laughs[00:01:57]

Soaks up sun for one more day[00:02:30]

沐浴着阳光迎接新的一天[00:02:38]

And come all you at home with freedom[00:02:38]

给鼠辈留点空间给兰花[00:02:52]

Room for all to grow and thrive[00:02:52]

给所有人成长和繁荣的空间[00:02:55]

Just less room for the fat landowner[00:02:55]

[00:02:58]

On his arse in his four-wheel drive[00:02:58]

[00:03:15]

England is not flag or Empire[00:03:15]
