Every night he'd come to me 每天晚上，他会来找我

I'd cook for him, I'd pour his tea 我会为他做饭，我就倒了茶

I was in my thirties then 我在我三十岁后

Had made some money, lived with men 做了一些钱，住在一起的男人

   

We'd lay us down to give and get 我们会打好我们失望放弃，并得到

Beneath the white mosquito net 下面的白色蚊帐

And since no counting had begun 而且，由于没有计数开始

We lived a thousand years in one 我们在一个活了一千多年

   

The candles burned 蜡烛燃烧

The moon went down 月亮下去

The polished hill 抛光后山

The milky town 银河镇

Transparent, weightless, luminous 透明，轻盈，发光

Uncovering the two of us 揭开我们两个

On that fundamental ground 在这样一个基本理由

Where love's unwilled, unleashed, unbound 有爱情的unwilled ，如虎添翼，未绑定

And half the perfect world is found 半完美世界发现
