Dip and swing, 颤颤巍巍，

Lift and sway¹; 颉之颃之;

Dream a life, 睡梦生涯，

In a dream, away. 抑之扬之。

Like a dream 睡中之梦，

In a sleep 风中之花，

Is the rose 蔷薇颠倒，

In the wind; 睡梦生涯。

And a fish 水中有鱼，

In the deep; 心中有君;

And a man 鱼难离水，

In the mind; 君是我心。

Dreaming to lack 梦有所丧，

All that is his; 丧其所有;

Dreaming to gain 梦有所得，

All that he is. 得其自由。

Dreaming a life, 睡梦生涯，

In a dream, away 抑之扬之，

Dip and swing, 颤颤巍巍，

Lift and sway. 颉之颃之。
