一首歌可以傳唱這麼久，歷久彌新的主要原因，應該是歌詞的內容可以深深打動聽者的心，我並不清楚這首歌的中文翻譯是誰寫的，但中文的意境遠遠比英文表達的要來的多，讚嘆翻譯的人員可以將歌詞翻的麼好，卻又不失這首歌所要表達的原意。

The Rose 　By Westlife

Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower, and you its only seed.

It’s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance.
It’s the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance.
It’s the one who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give,
and the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.

When the night has been so lonely and the road has been too long,
and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong,
just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose.

 

有人說愛情是一條河，會把柔嫩的蘆葦淹沒，
有人說愛情是一把利刃，終將讓你的靈魂淌血，
有人說愛情是一種渴望，雖然苦痛卻是無盡的需求，
我說愛情是一朵花，而你正是這朵花的種子。

是那顆害怕破碎的心，所以永遠學不會起舞。
是那場害怕醒來的夢，所以永遠也抓不住機會。
是那顆不願被佔據的心，所以似乎也無法付出。
是那個畏懼死去的靈魂，所以永遠也學不會怎麼去生存。

每當夜幕低垂孤寂難耐，路途遙不可期，
而你認為愛情只會眷顧那些幸運與堅強的人。
千萬別忘了冬季裡，深深的寒雪下，
埋著一顆種子等待陽光愛的薰陶，
於來春時開出璀璨的玫瑰。
