我为何来此？
背乡离井，朝
更死亡的方向逼近
别了吧，暖春啊， 暖春
何以如此残暴，凶狠？
持续向下的伏击，将
我的羽翼散乱，扑腾
狂醉的气流激起浪漫
谁的梦将我唤醒？
戴面具的影子悬空，赤裸
挥动旌旗，拍击浑圆的日鼓
那鼓声令我颤栗，耳叶纷坠
多么想跳一曲更刺骨的花舞哦
百合花瓣瓣赴死的卷扬， 旋滑
令这撕裂的爱情更凄美
我柔软的翼啊，会斑斓在下个春日？

Why have I come here?
Far from home, toward
A deader destiny
So long, spring, my warm spring
Why such violence, such brutality?
The ambush continues downward, scattering
My wings, thumping
Ecstatic airflows, arousing romance
Whose dream will wake me?
A masked shadow perched high, naked
Waving a flag, striking a round sun drum
That shakes my trunk, ears falling like leaves
How I long for a chilling flower dance
A whirlwind of dying lily petals, sliding
Bringing this torn love a sadder beauty
By next spring will my soft wings be resplendent?

帝国的秋日
易拉罐废弃
人民依然焦渴
高耸入云的黑烟
席卷GDP沉灰的天空
在通往地球的咽喉处
人民呼吸的鼻息淹没
帝国的群马狂奔
人民的庄稼被收割
不可啜饮的污水
挥霍鱼儿爱情的欢愉
在帝国苍茫的宫殿里
失败的旗帜飘扬
骰子弧线般抛击， 尖叫
广场上向日葵狼狈而逃

An Empire autumn
Tin-can wastage
People still thirsty
Towering black smoke
Rolling up a GDP-grey sky
Passing through the throat of the earth
The breath of the people is choked
The Empire's horses gallop forth
Crops of the people harvested
Undrinkable wastewater
Squandering fish's joyous love
In the Empire's vast palaces
Flags of failure wave
Dice tossed in an arc, screaming
Sunflowers flee the square
