On the side of a hill
在山岭的一隅
In a land called somewhere
在这无名之地
A little boy lays asleep in the earth
少年躺在地上沉睡
While down in the valley a cruel war rages
不理会山谷里弹片横飞
And people forget what a child's life is worth
人们早已忘记青春生命的价值

On the side of a hill a little cloud weeps
在山岭的一隅，白云在低泣
And waters the grave with its silent tears
野坟上的雨滴，原来是上天在啜泣
While a soldier cleans and polishes a gun
军士在擦拭
That ended a life at the age of seven years
那结束七龄幼童生命的凶器

And the war rages on in a land called somewhere
战火吞噬了这无名之地
And Generals order their men to kill
将军命令士兵攻击
And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten
为了那早已被遗忘的原因
While a little cloud weeps on the side of a hill
一小片白云，在山岭的一隅低泣
