The sunshine is mellow wine

and there are golden palaces inside the sun.

Where a giant is its master,

he told me that I was his shadow on the earth.

I will still be much greater, like a mountain

each rock is a Potala Palace.

And the epics I chanted came from billions of years ago,

there are huge number sweet homes beyond the Milky Way.

每一块石头都是布达拉宫

阳光是芳醇的酒

而太阳的体内是黄金的王宫

一个巨人是那儿的主人

他告诉我  我是他在人间的影子

我还会更加巨大 像一座山

每一块石头都是布达拉宫

而我吟唱的史诗 来自亿万年前

在银河系之外 有巨多甜蜜的家园
