Where Is The Love?《爱在哪里》2004冠军单曲
演唱者：Black Eyed Peas
何处有爱？战乱，金钱，种族仇恨，淡漠的道德……黑眼豆豆以自己的语言述说着他们看到的世界，温和地质问：爱是不是真的消失了？究竟是哪里出了问题？公平呢？责任呢？真相在哪里？……
第47届格莱美“最佳说唱组合”获得者“黑眼豆豆”（Black Eyed Peas）乐队的成名曲，蝉连英国金榜6周冠军，选自专辑《放克大象》（Elephunk），与知名艺人贾斯汀（Justin）合作完成，可以称得上是 Hip-Hop的经典之作——呵呵，因为说唱音乐鲜有这么健康的歌词——
英文歌词
What's wrong with the world, mama?
People living like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted 1 to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma 2
Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here living
In the USA, the big CIA, the Bloods and The Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate 3
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate 4, yeah
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate 5
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all
(Chorus)
People killing 6, people dying. Children hurt and you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach? And would you turn the other cheek?
Father, Father, Father help us. Send us some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questioning: Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love? (The love) (Repeat)
It just ain't the same, old ways have changed
New days are strange, is the world insane?
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong?
Nations dropping bombs. Chemical gasses filling lungs of little ones
With the ongoing 7 suffering as the youth die young
So ask yourself: Is the loving really gone?
So I could ask myself really: What is going wrong?
In this world that we living in people keep on giving in
Making wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends 8
Not respecting each other, deny thy brother
A war is going on but the reason's undercover
The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love? Y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth? Y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the love? Y'all
(Chorus)
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm getting older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money making
Selfishness got us following our own direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria 9
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids act like what they see in the cinema
Yup, whatever happened to the values of humanity?
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality?
Instead of spreading love we spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity 10
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under
Gotta keep my faith alive till love is found
Where is the love? (The love) (Repeat)
Father, Father, Father help us. Send us some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questioning: Where is the love?
世界怎么了，妈妈？人们表现得好像失去了妈妈的孩子
我觉得世界都疯狂于戏剧化的生活，只对那些让你痛苦的东西感兴趣
在海外，我们试图阻止恐怖主义，但在我们居住的地方却存在真正的恐怖分子
在美国，无所不能的中情局，鲜血，盲流和三K党
但是如果你只爱你自己的种族，你就只能活在一个充满歧视的狭隘空间
歧视只能带来仇恨，当你心怀憎恨时，你就变得抓狂
糟糕的是你所抗议的，那些正是愤怒的来源
你需要爱来摆正一切。控制自己的思维和冥想，让你的灵魂倾向于爱
（副歌）
人们屠杀，人们死亡。孩子们被伤害，我们听到他们的哭泣
你能实践自己布道时的说词吗？左脸被打，你愿意把右脸送上前么？
主啊，主啊，主啊，帮帮我们。从天堂给我们些指示吧
因为人们的行为让我不得不，不得不质问：爱在哪里？
爱在哪里？（重复）
这是完全不同的（时代），沉旧的观念似乎早已经改变
新的时代总是莫名其妙，是不是世界都已疯狂？
如果爱与和平强大无比，为什么那些爱的碎片仍然无法拼凑？
国与国之间相互扔着炸弹，化学毒气充满了孩子的肺腔
年轻人在痛苦中早早死去。所以问问你自己：爱是不是真的消失了？
所以我要好好问问自己：到底哪里出问题了？
在我们生活的这个世界，人们仍然不断屈从于
做着错误的决定，眼里只有股息红利，不尊重别人、哪怕是手足骨肉
一场战争即将爆发，但是却没人知道原因
真相被埋藏，就像垃圾一样被扫到地毯下。如果你不知道真相你永远不知道爱
爱在哪里？你们说啊（我不知道）真相在哪里？
你们说啊（我不知道）爱在哪里？
（副歌）
我感到自己对世界的责任，那压在肩头的重量
当我越来越老，人们变得越来越冷酷
大多数人只看重挣钱，自私让我们只遵从自己
媒体上总是播放着错误的信息，负面的画面变成了主要标准
它们比细菌还要快地腐蚀着年轻人的思想。孩子们模仿电影里面的言行
人类的价值观究竟出了什么问题？公正心和平等观念又出了什么问题？
传达真爱被我们以散播仇恨而取代；缺乏理解，我们离信任团结越来越远
那就是为什么有时候我会觉得失意，那就是为什么有时候我会觉得难过
有时候我会觉得失意也就没什么奇怪的，我要坚持信念知道找到真爱
爱在哪里？（重复）
主啊，主啊，主啊，帮帮我们。从天堂给我们些指示吧
因为人们的行为让我不得不，不得不质问：爱在哪里？
