I Don’t Expect You to Repay Me
《我不期望回报》

For what I’ve done for you,
给予你了
I don’t expect you to repay me.
我便不期望回报
If I asked for what I’d paid,
如果付出就是为了有一天索取
Then, how insignificant I would be.
那么，我将变得多么渺小
If you were the water in the lake,
如果，你是湖水
I would be pleased to be the dike surrounding you.
我乐意是堤岸环绕
If you were a hill or a mountain,
如果，你是山岭
I would be pleased to be the grass adorning you.
我乐意是装点你姿容的青草
A man can’t necessarily make himself a great man.
人，不一定能使自己伟大
But he is sure to be able to make himself a noble man.
但一定可以使自己崇高
