[English]

If you've been hurt so deeply by her

Be thankful she’s the one tormenting you kindly

If you feel guilty toward her

Be grateful she’s tears she’s generously shed

Before we met and fell in love

Thanks to her for making you grow up

If you're feeling lonely now

Be thankful for this beautiful wait

If you're still making mistakes in love

Be grateful she hasn't found me yet

To go through every twist and turn

So we can truly understand what love is

My Love

If you feel lucky to have me

Be thankful I was once abandoned

If you appreciate my strength and tenderness

Be grateful for these precious wounds

After we met and fell in love

Regrets will turn into blessings

When we finally hold each other tight

All suffering becomes sweet results

We just drift with patience

Love will come at the right time

My Love

[Chinese]

如果你被她傷的很痛

請感謝她好心折磨

如果你對她感到愧疚

請感謝她慷慨淚流

在我們相遇相愛之前

多虧有她讓你成熟

如果你現在孤獨寂寞

請感謝這美麗等候

如果你還在為愛犯錯

請感謝還沒找到我

要走完每個曲折路口

我們才懂愛是什麼

My Love

如果慶幸我值得擁有

請感謝我被放棄過

如果欣賞我堅強溫柔

請感謝那珍貴傷口

在我們相遇相愛之後

遺憾都會變成收穫

My Love

當我們終於緊緊相擁

所有苦難會甜美結果

我們就耐心漂流

愛會來的 在對的時候

My Love
