A cradle Earth, horizons unseen

New world in thirst, for the arcane
新世界渴望着探索玄妙奥秘
We are, singers of the gone
我们唱诵那遗失的故事
We remember, as along came life
我们仍记得生命的起始

A cradle Earth, horizons unseen
地球摇篮上，陌生的地平线
Birth of one, and a zillion sideshows
万千无限的好戏上演
We are, we were, and will not be
我们曾在，我们在此，也终将不再
We remember, as along came acorn
我们仍记得，每一颗橡子的诞生

Another birth, another moss green
新生命降生，苔藓又绿
New world in thirst, for the unseen
新世界渴望着探索未知视野
An empty zoo, a starlight vigil
动物园归于沉寂，星光为之守灵
Will have a visit, as along came heartbeat
我们静候，下一次心跳的降临

Another birth, another monster
新生命降生，怪物又一次降临
Endless forms, towards the stronger
无尽的形态演化，朝向更强的方向
Menagerie, of a new world order
新世界的秩序如动物园形成
We held our breath, as along came suffering

We remember, father Pikaia
我们仍记得，生命最初形态
Gave the way, as along came Sapien
腾出道路，迎接人类诞生
The cradle Earth, welcoming its newborn
地球摇篮，迎接它的新生
Aeons since that very first acorn
自那颗橡实后，已过了无尽纪元

Together now, in this timeless parade
一同踏上这永恒的游行吧，
The living lie, dead afraid
即便生者欺骗，而死者恐惧
Then they saw the moon, and found caring
当他们举头望月，爱满心间
We remember, as along came writing
我们仍记得，那是文字的出现

Such worlds were there, zoos dead again
这样的世界周而复始，动物园又一次归于沉寂
After all, we should`ve never appeared
毕竟从一开始，我们便不应出现
Spaceship Earth, through the fields of time
地球飞船穿越时间荒野
They understood, as along came wisdom
他们逐渐领悟，随着智慧显现

We have been here a while
我们的存在超越时间
At the end of Pi, as along came harvest
在圆周率的尽头，在收割日的来临

We will remember all the suffering
我们会铭记所有的苦难
We wrote this in a tongue you will understand
我们用你们能够理解的语言写下这一切
Words and melodies with a touch of coloring
话语和音乐，加上一点色彩
We were there and will remember mankind
我们曾在那里，我们将人类铭记
Our kin
我们的至亲

千古之前
