Where I come from everyone knows me.

在我的出生地人人都認識我

My name was chanted like a Buddhist mantra

當我的名字如唸佛咒一般被唱誦時

when twenty three people were immolated.

二十三個人犧牲了性命

They say God is in everything we see.

他們說神存在於我們可見的一切事物

I see Molotov cocktails and machetes.

我看見莫洛托夫雞尾酒與大刀

At night my parrot becomes the goddess of fighting cocks. She is a beauty! She moonlights as a prostitute

晚上我的鸚鵡變成鬥雞們的女神

and sells crack on the inner-city streets.

她真美麗！她晚上兼差做雞

並在內城的街上賣快克

Where I come from everyone knows me.

If it weren't for me, Irrawaddy dolphins would still be

在我的出生地人人都認識我

in the Irrawaddy. Animosity is my currency.

要不是因為我，伊洛瓦底的海豚可是會

I make friends with armadillos and fight for my desire.

依然在伊洛瓦底。仇恨是我的金流

I have the longest tongue on earth and drink from a creek on fire.

我與犰狳為友並為我的慾望爭鬥

我有條世界最長的舌頭，從著火的江河飲水

Every day I wake up inside a bull and reign over bulls.

I plant poppies in Shan State, I run casinos in Mandalay. I can't remember the poems I wrote.

每天我自公牛體內甦醒並統治著公牛們

Can't remember how many people I have set fire to.

我在撣邦種罌粟，在曼德勒開賭場

我記不清我寫過多少詩

記不清我在多少人身上放過火
