Pada tanggal 3 September 2003
I was softly touched by a warm summer breeze
Aku merasakan sentuhan lembut angin musim panas yang hangat
There were blue tits flocking and swerving
Ada burung-burung kecil berwarna biru berkerumun dan berputar
My accuracy is quite unnerving
Ketepatanku cukup mengganggu

I stole into a burnt, orange field
Aku menyelinap ke ladang oranye yang hangus
Which once was green, but lost its zeal
Yang dulunya hijau, tapi kini kehilangan semangatnya
To prance and dance and sing around
Untuk melompat, menari, dan bernyanyi di sekeliling
Which is not condoned in the centre of town
Yang tidak diperbolehkan di pusat kota

Children please beware!
Anak-anak, harap hati-hati!
I'm choked with fear
Aku tercekik ketakutan
Oh children please beware!
Oh anak-anak, harap hati-hati!
I'm choked with fear
Aku tercekik ketakutan
(repeat)
(diulang)

And as I crunched those crispy leaves
Dan saat aku menginjak daun-daun kering itu
I walked towards a shaded tree
Aku berjalan menuju pohon yang rimbun
To find a young girl lying there
Untuk menemukan seorang gadis muda terbaring di sana
Drifting off without a care
Tertidur tanpa beban

Her face was covered by a straw hat
Wajahnya tertutup topi jerami
'Happy as Larry' and all of that
'Bahagia seperti Larry' dan sejenisnya
When I shouted out to wake her up
Saat aku berteriak untuk membangunkannya
She was skipping school in the burning hot
Dia bolos sekolah di tengah panas yang membara

Children please beware!
Anak-anak, harap hati-hati!
I'm choked with fear
Aku tercekik ketakutan
Oh children please beware!
Oh anak-anak, harap hati-hati!
I'm choked with fear
Aku tercekik ketakutan
(repeat)
(diulang)

And as I tried to get her to speak
Dan saat aku mencoba membuatnya berbicara
I realised that she was not asleep
Aku menyadari bahwa dia tidak tidur
I moved her hat to find that her face was grey
Aku menggeser topinya dan mendapati wajahnya pucat
Her knickers wrapped around her ankles
Celana dalamnya terikat di pergelangan kakinya
It's not funny!
Ini tidak lucu!

Children please beware!
Anak-anak, harap hati-hati!
I'm choked with fear
Aku tercekik ketakutan
Oh children please beware!
Oh anak-anak, harap hati-hati!
I'm choked with fear
Aku tercekik ketakutan
(repeat)
(diulang)

Swamped with fear...
Terbenam dalam ketakutan...
Drown in fear...
Tenggelam dalam ketakutan...
