It was a story told for years 这是一个流传久远的故事
When a young girl dwelled this land 一个女孩来到这世上
With eyes shone like the star 她的双眸如星般闪亮
And a smile that charmed both heaven and earth 她的笑意迷尽人间与天堂
The moon was ashamed when next to her 月儿在她身边羞闭
And the flowers bowed their heads 花儿在她面前低垂
Her songs could tame the beasts 她的歌声可以驯服勐兽
Her hands could wave all sorrows away 她的双手驱走所有忧伤
Yet that Fate was envy bout this girl 然而嫉妒心驱使着命运之神
And a plot was planned to lay her down 计划让她永远睡去
To a pasture she was led 她被带到一片草原上
Where the grass was always green 那里到处绿草如茵
In the midst of this wonderland 在这令人陶醉的仙境之中
Stood the plant that＇d bring her permanent end 那里静静地竖立着死亡之株
Yet that Fate was envy bout this girl 那是命运之神被嫉妒心所驱
And a plot was planned to lay her down 计划让她永远睡去
The plant of death was in her eyes 当她看到了那死亡之株
Sending its fragrant through the air 空气中弥漫着它的芳香
Laughter form below was heard 天地间仿佛充满了笑声
With a touch the task was done 于是她指尖轻触
Like an arrow it speared her heart 就像利箭穿过她的心房
Like venom it killed her light 就像毒液熄灭生命之光
As her body slowly dropped 当她的身体缓缓倒下
Stopped the singing from around 周围的歌声渐渐也停止
Her soul left without a sound 她的灵魂从此远去 再也没有一点声息
The god of love was deeply hurt 当悲讯传到天上
When the tragedy was known 爱神深受悲伤
It cut right into his heart 心犹如利刀切过一般
With tears and pain he flew to her 那含泪忍痛的天神啊 他飞临到姑娘身旁
To end this sorrow he drawn his sword 为了结束无尽的痛苦 他毅然拔剑高扬
How red the blood that sprayed around 当鲜红的热血洒在四周
As the thorns grew around it stem 只有荆棘在那枝干上生长
And the petals stained in red 当花瓣被那热血染红
Turned the plant into a rose 从此一种叫「玫瑰」的美丽花朵诞生在这个世上
