帶我去月球 [wǒ qù yuè qiú] [English translation]

Go, bring me, out of the Earth of polluted air

Go, bring me, out of the life of quarrel and noise

Owing to the boundless strong smoke corroding my dream

Because of the war making me have few friends

I beg no house and no glory, not limited by the mortal world

Bring me to the Moon of thin air

Bring me to the Moon of numerous primitive holes

Bring me to the Moon, where gravity hardly influences you and me

Struggling in a desert, I don't see Chang'e following me

But I must be away from the Earth and place my hopes in the whole universe

Go, with me, look at my light steps on the starry sky

Go, with me, I love lying in a pavilion as a loose drunkard

Daren't be proud all over the world, free from worrying about the vast nature

Singing a rough song, dimly I break into the infinity

Drink and don't stop, for life is just a dream so big

Bring me to the Moon of thin air

Bring me to the Moon of numerous primitive holes

Bring me to the Moon, where gravity hardly influences you and me

Struggling in a desert, I don't see Chang'e following me

But I must be away from the Earth and place my hopes in the whole universe

Behold my pupils, am I still flaming?

Behold my smile, do I still possess myself?

Waxing moon, waning moon, let the eclipse devour me

Bring me to the Moon of thin air

Bring me to the Moon of numerous primitive holes

Bring me to the Moon, where gravity hardly influences you and me

Struggling in a desert, I don't see Chang'e following me

But I must be away from the Earth and place my hopes in the whole universe
