I dream a dream

I dreamed a dream in time gone by 　　

我梦到往日的一个梦 　

When hope was high 　　

那时充满希望 　

And life worth living 　　

生命有价值 　　

I dreamed that love would never die 　　

我梦到爱永不凋零 　

I dreamed that God would be forgiving 　　

我梦到天主是宽容的 　

Then I was young and unafraid 　　

那时我仍年轻无惧 　　

And dreams were made and used and wasted 　

我浪掷梦想 　

There was no ransom to be paid 　　

而无须付出任何代价 　　

No song unsung, no wine untasted 　　

无歌不唱, 无酒不尝 　　

But the tigers come at night 　　

然而老虎却在夜里 　　

With their voices soft as thunder 　

带著他们低沈如雷的声音来到 　　

As they tear your hope apart 　

他们将你的希望撕裂 　　

And they turn your dream to shame 　

他们让你的梦想幻灭

And still I dream he'll come to me 　

而我还梦想著他会回到我身边 　　

That we will live the years together 　

那我们就可以永远在一起 　　

But there are dreams that cannot be

但那是无法实现的梦想 　　

And there are storms we cannot weather 　　

那是我们无法捱过的暴风雨 　

I had a dream my life would be 　　

我曾梦想著我的人生 　　

So different from this hell I'm living 　

完全不像我现在般的生活 　　

So different now from what it seemed 　　

现在不像我曾经想像的 　　

Now life has killed the dream I dreamed. 　

如今现实的生活已经扼杀了我昔日的梦想
