[English]

Blowing the peach blossoms red, blowing the willows green

You're always comforting someone on the road

Blowing wakes the frogs, blowing in the swallows

I happen to be missing someone in the city

Even if you bring the underground roses

Can I take back the taste of the ground

Someone sings "No way home"

When the spring breeze blows, I think of someone

There's something called indifference, as long as I don't regret

When the spring breeze blows, I forget who

The last time I cried, how many years ago

You will retreat, I want to chase

Will it be right or wrong?

No wonder I'm a bit tired

Snake in the hole, sleeping in winter

Grass on the plains, spring wind blows

By summer, I’ve become someone else

...

Blowing past the Jade Gate, blowing past the Nanniwan

You're destined to abandon someone in the north

Wrinkling the river water, dispersing the clouds

I'm awkwardly carrying someone in the world

You can tempt the restless thunder of March

Can you guarantee a ten-year promise?

Someone sings "No way home"

When the spring breeze blows, I think of someone

There's something called indifference, as long as I don't regret

When the spring breeze blows, I forget who

The last time I cried, how many years ago

You will retreat, I want to chase

Will it be right or wrong?

No wonder I'm a bit tired

Snake in the hole, sleeping in winter

Grass on the plains, spring wind blows

By summer, I’ve become someone else

...

You can tempt the restless thunder of March

Can you guarantee a ten-year promise?

Someone releases a turtle

When the spring breeze blows, I think of someone

There's something called indifference, as long as I don't regret

When the spring breeze blows, I forget who

The last time I cried, how many years ago

You will retreat, I want to chase

Will it be right or wrong?

No wonder I'm a bit tired

Snake in the hole, sleeping in winter

Grass on the plains, spring wind blows

...

By summer, I’ve become someone else

...

Spring wind blows

...

[Chinese]

吹紅了桃花 吹綠了柳樹

你在路上總會安慰誰

吹醒了青蛙 吹來了燕子

我在城裡剛好缺了誰

你縱然帶來地下的玫瑰

能否收回地上的滋味

有人唱胡不歸

春風一吹想起誰

有所謂 無所謂 只要不後悔

春風一吹忘了誰

我上一次流淚又幾歲

你會退 我想追

會不會 對不對

也難怪我有點累

洞裡蛇 冬日睡

原上草 春風吹

到夏天我變了誰

吹過玉門關 吹過南泥灣

你在北方註定拋棄誰

吹皺了河水 吹散了雲堆

我在世界不巧背著誰

你可以慫恿三月的悶雷

能否保證十年的約會

有人唱胡不歸

春風一吹想起誰

有所謂 無所謂 只要不後悔

春風一吹忘了誰

我上一次流淚又幾歲

你會退 我想追

會不會 對不對

也難怪我有點累

洞裡蛇 冬日睡

原上草 春風吹

到夏天我變了誰

你可以慫恿三月的悶雷

能否保證十年的約會

有人放生烏龜

春風一吹想起誰

有所謂 無所謂 只要不後悔

春風一吹忘了誰

我上一次流淚又幾歲

你會退 我想追

會不會 對不對

也難怪我有點累

洞裡蛇 冬日睡

原上草 春風吹

到夏天我變了誰

春風吹
