这世的名字

Can you remember me, can you remember me

This lifetime's name

From that time beneath the glaciers, billions of years ago

From that chance collision of two cells, evolving long ago

Through civilizations rising, clamoring, then falling low

Countless times washed away, yet by the cosmos noted so

I once rode wild steeds on the high plains of the Americas

You once guarded towers on distant South Asian hills afar

Both gazing at the same moon in the sky

Never knowing each other, where my home did lie

Was that you, the star twinkling on a clear summer night

Was that you, the lightning flash in a storm's fierce light

If we could ever meet again someday

Can you remember me, can you remember me, this lifetime's name

If we should meet again, if we could meet again, would you know my face

Even if just a passing glance, a look back, a distant place

Remember to find that path, the homeward road, blooming with grace

Please, you must remember me, you must remember me

This lifetime's name

My dear, farewell now, and I'll await your homecoming day

I once rode wild steeds on the high plains of the Americas

You once guarded towers on distant South Asian hills afar

Both gazing at the same moon in the sky

Never knowing each other, where my home did lie

Was that you, the star twinkling on a clear summer night

Was that you, the lightning flash in a storm's fierce light

If we could ever meet again someday

Can you remember me

Can you remember me
