以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Up up up up up up points the
向上 向上 不断向上延伸的
Spire of the steeple
是教堂高耸的尖顶
But God's work isn't done by God
但上帝的工作并非由上帝完成
It's done by people
而是由世人代行
Up up up up up up points the
向上 向上 不断向上延伸的
Fingers of the trees
是树木伸展的枝桠
The lumberjacks with their bloody axes
伐木工手持染血的斧头
Are on their knees
却已屈膝跪下
And just when you think that you've got enough
就在你以为已拥有足够时
Enough grows
满足却在不断生长
And everywhere that you go in life
无论你走过人生的何处
Enough knows
知足常乐如影随形
Up up up up up up dances
向上 向上 不断升腾舞动
The steam from the sewer
那是地下管道冒出的蒸汽
As she rounds the corner
当她转过街角时
The brutal wind blows right through her
凛冽寒风穿透她的身躯
Up up up up up up raises
向上 向上 不断攀升
The stakes of the game
游戏的筹码在增加
Each day sinks it's bootprint into her clay
每日足迹深深刻进她的泥土
And she's not the same
她已不复从前模样
And just when you think that you've got enough
就在你以为已拥有足够时
Enough grows
满足却在不断生长
And everywhere that you go in life
无论你走过人生的何处
Enough knows
知足常乐如影随形
Half of learning how to play
学会演奏的一半奥秘
Is learning what not to play
在于懂得何时停息
And she's learning the spaces she leaves
她正领悟留白的意义
Have their own things to say
静默自有其言语
Then she's trying to sing just enough
而后她试着浅吟低唱
So that the air around her moves
让周身空气随之荡漾
And make music like mercy
奏响慈悲般的乐章
That gives what it is
将真谛自然流淌
And has nothing to prove
无需向谁证明什么
She crawls out on a limb
她攀上枝头栖息
And begins to build her home
开始筑造自己的家
And it's enough just to look around
只需环顾四周便知
To know she's not alone
她并非孤身一人
Up up up up up up points
向上 向上 不断向上延伸
The spire of the steeple
教堂尖顶直指苍穹
But God's work isn't done by God
但上帝的工作并非由上帝完成
It's done by people
而是由世人代行
