珂拉琪 Collage／萬千花蕊慈母悲哀
Thousands of blossoms, the merciful Mother's sorrow
下晡 一个人踮厝內
This afternoon, I was alone at home
西北雨 沃澹窗外的衫
The thunderstorm wet the clothes hung outside
外口的人 猶未轉來
The guy hadn't returned home yet
戇戇咧等 戇戇攑一支雨傘
I was blindly waiting, holding an umbrella
為你 幾若擺睏袂去
Because of you, I tossed and turned several times
全世界 揣袂著你的形影
I couldn't find you anywhere
凡勢 會當共你放捒
Maybe, I would be able to abandon you
氣身惱命 我哪會攏無要無緊
I was irritated and furious, but how come I did nothing for it?
踮遮規暝 看電火閃爍
I stood here the whole night, and stared at the dim light
我踮遮等待 拍無去的人
I waited here for the missing guy
聽厝內的聲 聲聲佇咧吼
I heard the sounds in the house, like shouting and crying
我踅來踅去 思念火燒房間
I was pacing around, my yearning was burning the house
袂開的花 無欲轉來的人
The unopened blossom, like someone who wouldn't return home
美麗的你啊 想著你彼當時 攑懸你的旗仔
Beautiful you, I thought of you raising the flag high
路邊的話 滿街路雨紛飛
Gossiping along the roads, drizzling on the streets
時代的變卦 孤單的我一个人 問天也毋捌
At the change of the time, I was alone praying to God but got no replies
手內啥物攏無 只賰我欲予你的愛
I had nothing in hand but only the love for you
有血有肉的人 煞下落不明
The guy with flesh and blood was gone
共你的 記持啊 囥佇我的心內
I put our memories in my mind
騎你的 白馬啊 行你欲行的路
Riding your white horse, walking on your way
風吹來 花落塗 點一欉香祈求
The wind blew, the blossom dropped in the ground,
I ignited an incense stick to pray
(南無觀世音菩薩)
Namo Guanyin Pusa
若準講你 算著這齣悲劇
If Pusa you foretold this tragedy,
你敢會看顧 紲落來伊頭前 彼逝歹行的路
would you look after him while he was walking the next rugged road
夢中的我 看你沓沓仔行
I saw you walking slowly in my dream,
牽你的亡魂 有一工咱做伙 轉去彼个所在
I led your soul, someday we'll get together, go back to that place
我 蔫去的愛(規路攏是)
My withered love (here and there)
佮你 恬去的心(你)
With your silent heart (you)
佇這烏暗時代(佇這烏暗時代)
In this dark era (In this dark era)
是有緣無份(想欲講出)
Predestined separate (wanna speak out)
寫袂了的批(的)
Unfinished letter
佮講袂煞的話(奈何)
And endless words (resignedly)
(亻因) 開袂完的銃(開袂完的銃)
(Those) endless shooting (endless shooting)
看人去樓空(火烌猶在)
People were gone (ashes stayed)
雨 微微仔落
It was drizzling
天 微微仔光
The day was dawning
看你 微微仔笑
You were smiling
後世人再會
See you in the next life
