AURORA - Heathens〈異教徒〉中文歌詞翻譯

Aurora曾向澳洲廣播電台Triple J解釋說，這首歌的靈感來自《創世記》：

"A long, long time ago, Eve took a bite of a forbidden apple hanging from the tree of evil and good. In her act of doing so, she granted humans free will; I just think that is very beautiful, and I wanted to honour her and women like her, who little by little granted us freedom in this world. A freedom to live as we please, to explore and taste. I think life should be lived in all of its colours, and that is why we live like heathens."

「很久很久以前，夏娃咬了在知善惡樹上的禁果，而她這個行為賦予了人類自由意志。我覺得這非常美麗，我想向她以及像她這樣的女性致敬，她們一點一點地賦予了我們在這個世界上的自由。能隨心所欲去生活、去探索、去體驗。我認為生活就該充滿各種自由色彩，這就是為何我們活得像異教徒。」
