I asked my father,
I said, "father change my name."
The one I'm using now it's covered up
With fear and filth and cowardice and shame.
我問我父，
我懇求問道，「慈悲的我父，請抹去我的舊名。」
「我當下的名都矇上恐懼、髒污、懦弱和羞恥。」

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me,
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me.
那回來吧我親愛的、摯愛的、珍愛的、鐘愛的、心上的、敬愛的、疼愛的你。
那回來吧我親愛的、摯愛的、珍愛的、鐘愛的、心上的、敬愛的、疼愛的你。

He said, "i locked you in this body,
I meant it as a kind of trial.
You can use it for a weapon,
Or to make some woman smile."
父說，「我予你這身體，」
「我是與你試驗。」
「你可當成武器，」
「也可令雌沉醉。」

"then let me start again," i cried,
"please let me start again,
I want a face that's fair this time,
I want a spirit that is calm."
我哭喊，「那請讓我重新開始。」
「請讓我再來一次。」
「我想要一張可親的臉。」
「我想要一顆安寧的心。」

"i never never turned aside," he said,
"i never walked away.
It was you who built the temple,
It was you who covered up my face."
慈悲的父說，「我從來沒有離開過你旁。」
「我一直都在陪伴你。」
「是你築起了神殿。」
「是你掩住了我臉。」

And may the spirit of this song,
May it rise up pure and free.
May it be a shield for you,
A shield against the enemy.
願這首歌的靈，
願它純潔自由，
願它為你擋下，
擋下來襲敵人。
