HARD TO BE A GOD

And why does it matter
何必去在乎
Where they bury our bodies?
人们将我们的躯体葬身何处
And what is the difference
那些符号和文字之间
In the words and symbols?
又有何本质上的区别？
And why does it matter
长眠之地位于何处
Where they bury our bodies?
又有那般重要吗？
How long is the difference
在这毫无意义的符文间
In the meaningless symbols?
又能有多大的不同？
And why does it matter?
人们将我们遗忘于何处
Where they bury our bodies?
又有何在乎的必要呢
And what is the difference
那些符号和文字之间
In the words and symbols?
本质上并毫无区别
And why does it matter
那何必在乎
Where they bury our bodies?
人们将我们抛弃于何处
How long is the difference
在那些意味不明的符文之中
In the meaningless symbols?
又能有多大的区别
Dig, 'til you find me there

Did a minute pass?
过去的仅是一分钟吗？
Or a thousand years?
或是说千年已逝？
