Song: 祢 (Mí) •Album: 唱遊 (1998)
祢
开始所有东西都还没有意义
你赐我一套真理以后我就跟着你
这是天那是地这是我那是你
人和事情与理都合乎你旨意你说出来就存在
你造出来就崇拜
你说存在就存在
你叫我爱我就爱教我你的真理除了那些怀疑
一偏离你的轨迹这个世界就窒息
你是天你是地我不是我自己
人和事情与理都得靠你维系你说出来就存在
你造出来就崇拜
你说存在就存在
你叫我爱我就爱你说出来就存在
你造出来就崇拜
你说存在就存在
你说是爱就是爱你说出来就存在
你造出来就崇拜
你说存在就存在
你说是爱就是爱
You
In the beginning, everything was meaningless
You made me your disciple so I will follow you from now on
This is the sky, that is the ground— this is me, that is you
People and events are all according to your willWhatever you say, will exist
Whatever you create, I will worship
Whatever you say exists, will exist
You tell me to love, I will loveTeach me your preachings except for the doubts
Just a deviation from your path makes the world suffocate
You are the sky, you are the ground, I am not who I am
People and events always depend on you to maintainWhatever you say, will exist
Whatever you create, I will worship
Whatever you say exists, will exist
You tell me to love, I will loveWhatever you say, will exist
Whatever you create, I will worship
Whatever you say exists, will exist
If you say it’s love, then it is loveWhatever you say, will exist
Whatever you create, I will worship
Whatever you say exists, will exist
If you say it’s love, then it is love

Author’s comments:
“祢“ is the second POV version of referring to a god, similar to Christianity’s usage of “Him”
The direct translation of “一套真理” is “a set of truths,” but it more accurately implies a religious law.
You
In the beginning
Everything was meaningless
You granted me a set of truths
I will follow you from now onThis is the sky
That is the ground
This is you
That is mePeople and events
Love and reason
They all comply with your demandsYou name it
So it exists
You create it
So I worship itYou say it exists
So it exists
You tell me to love
So I loveTeach me your truths
Except for those suspicionsThe moment one strays from your tracks
The world suffocatesYou are the sky
I am the groundI am not myself
People and events
Love and reason
All rely on you to sustain themYou name it
So it exists
You create it
So I worship itYou say it exists
So it exists
You tell me to love
So I loveYou name it
So it exists
You create it
So I worship itYou say it exists
So it exists
You say it is love
And so it is love
