"If I Can Dream"

There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true
Oh why

There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away
the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear

We're lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We're trapped in a world
That's troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly

Deep in my heart there's a tremblin' question
Still I am sure that the answer, answer's gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle, yeah
And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true......right now

And now, the end is near
現在，已經接近尾聲
And so I face the final curtain
終于要面對這最後的落幕
My friend, I’ll say it clear
我的朋友，我將會清楚的陳述
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
我將會說出那些我自己肯定的經歷
I’ve lived a life that’s full
我渡過了充實的一生
I’ve traveled each and every highway
我歷經了所有的每一條的高速路
and more, much more than this
比這更多的，更多與此的是
I did it my way
我是用自己的方式去走過。

Regrets, I’ve had a few
後悔，我也有
But then again, too few to mention
但是一樣的是，（那些讓我後悔的事情）太少，不值得去提及
I did what I had to do
我做的都是我必須做的事情
And saw it through without exemption
不需要任何刪減省略地去回想著
I planned each charted course
我安排好每一個有計劃的行程
Each careful step along the byway
在小路上獨自小心走出每一步
But more, much more than this
但是，比這也更多的，更多與此的是
I did it my way
我是用自己的方式去走過。

Yes, there were times I’m sure you knew
是的，曾經有幾次，我想你也知道
When I bit off more than I could chew
當我試圖去做超出自己容忍範圍的事情的時候
But through it all, when there was doubt
但是現在看來，在當時在還有猶豫的餘地時候
I ate it up and spit it out
我選擇了憤怒，我尖銳嚴厲地大聲說了出來
I faced it all and I stood tall
我面對這一切，我昂首挺胸
And did it my way
用我自己的方式走下去

I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried
我愛過，我笑過，我哭過
I’ve had my fill; my share of losing
我有過心滿意足，也有過挫折失敗
And now, as tears subside
現在，隨著淚水逝去
I find it all so amusing
我發現這一切原來都是如此有趣
To think I did all that
回憶起我曾做過的一切
And may I say - not in a shy way
請允許我，允許我可以毫不胆怯的說
“No, oh no not me”
“ 不~（做出那樣的“事情”意指虛僞的事情）不會是我。”（有點不確定）
I did it my way
（因爲）我（都）是用自己的方式去走過。

For what is a girl, what has he got?
作爲一個女生，她得到了什麽？
If not herself, then she has naught
如果她連自己都不能完全忠於，那麽她就真的是一無所有
To say the things she truly feels
說出她自己真實的感覺
And not the words of one who kneels
而不是屈膝違心的語言
The record shows I took the blows
唱片記錄下我的每一聲喘息（這一句有點不確定）
And did it my way
我用自己的方式繼續著
yes，it was my way
是的，這就是我的方式。
