登上最早开的长途班
Boarding the earliest long-distance train,
驶出灰暗暗的火车站
Sailing out from the dim train station,
坐著十几个疲倦的旅客
With a dozen weary travelers seated,
没人交谈
No one is talking,
窗外没有尽头的荒凉
Endless desolation outside the window,
天空没有一丝云的蓝
The sky a cloudless shade of blue,
太阳照在这条笔直铁路
The sun beating down on this straight railway,
晒得很烫
It's scorching hot,
坐在车厢倒后的椅上
Sitting in the backward-facing seat of the carriage,
看见不断变小的风光
Watching the landscape gradually shrink away.
视线朝著过去的世界
Eyes turned to the world of the past
身体却奔向前方
Yet the body rushes onward
再次出走
Once again I set out
抛弃了疲倦的以往
Leaving behind the weary yesterdays
离开了寄居的城邦
Departing from the city I’ve called home
要到更陌生的地方
Heading to a place more unknown
带著旧的行囊
Carrying old baggage with me
感受著兴奋与不安
Feeling both excitement and unease
漂泊是心灵的试探
Wandering is a trial for the soul
重复又无常的聚散
The cycle of gathering and parting, ever-changing
一站接著一站
One stop after another
站在中途站的吃店旁
Standing beside the diner at the midway station
喝著不加糖的冰红茶
Sipping unsweetened iced tea
想起隔壁养的那条小狗
Thinking of the little dog next door
睡得很懒
Sleeping in laziness
平常吃晚饭的小餐馆
The cozy diner where we usually have dinner
现在大概还没有打烊
Probably still not closed for the night
每天必经那条商店街道
The street of shops I pass by every day
依旧繁忙
Still bustling with life
我搬出的小公寓套房
The small apartment suite I moved out from
已经住了陌生的女郎
Already living with a stranger, a girl
躺在床上看著天花板
Lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling
她是否一样失望
Is she also feeling this disappointment?
再次出走
Once again, I set out
抛弃了疲倦的以往
Leaving behind the weariness of the past
离开了寄居的城邦
Departed from the city I was staying in
要到更陌生的地方
Heading to a more unfamiliar place
带著长长影子
Carrying a long shadow
感受著兴奋与不安
Feeling the thrill and the unease
漂泊是心灵的试探
Wandering is a trial for the soul
也许一天我会习惯
Perhaps one day I'll get used to it
生命的下一站
The next stop in life
