Hot water and hot air 熱水與熱空氣

Hot water gave birth to hot air in last hot summer

They got alone with each other well

Hot water was happy

在一個炎熱的夏天裡，熱水生下了熱空氣

他們相處的非常愉快

熱水好快樂

Hot air became bigger and bigger quickly

More arguments here than before

They all missed the past peaceful days

熱空氣很快的愈長愈大

越來越多的爭執

彼此都懷念那過去的平靜日子

Something should be changed

有些事必須改變了

“Let’s leave this dark tiny room” hot air suggested

But Hot water was too tired to move

More and more endless fights stayed here

「我們離開這又黑又窄的小房間吧!!」熱空氣提議

但熱水太疲倦了 沒有力氣移動

無止盡的爭吵更多更多地停塞

Where is the exit?  

What is the answer?

哪裡才是出口?

甚麼叫做答案?

One day

Hot air couldn’t stand this stressful room anymore

Hot air finally pushed hot water to goes out together

一天

熱空氣再也無法忍受這個充滿壓力的房間

最後它終於推著熱水一起離開

Going up always meet some obstructers

There is no easy way to find happiness

要前進總會碰上阻礙

得到幸福從來就不簡單

Brown dust storm stopped their way

They fight with this heavy brown disaster hardly

Keep find a small hole to continue their way

褐色的風砂暴阻擋了他們的去路

他們與這場沉重的褐災奮鬥

小小的洞 就能讓他們持續前面的路

Went through a narrow long path

Sacrificed so much important things

Forgotten the reasons of leaving

Lost the determination of being good

The small light came in front of them

經過了狹長的窄道

犧牲了這麼多重要的事物

忘記了離開的理由

失去了善良的本心

那小小的光終於來到他們的眼前

They made it together

他們一起做到了

Hot water had become brown water through so many struggles

No longer pure

經過了這麼多掙扎抗戰        熱水已經變成了褐水

不再純淨

In front of the exit

The hot air looked at new-changed brown hot water

And leave without hesitation

The hot brown water stayed in front of the exit alone

With a small piece of sky

Cooled slowly

Waited for the next summer

在出口前

熱空氣看了看這變化後的褐色熱水

不帶猶豫的離去

熱褐水獨自留在出口前

伴隨眼前那一小片的天空

慢慢冷卻

等待下一個夏季的到來
