[English]

Gathering together

Bickering together

Experiencing great deeds together

Wherever we go, you and I always stay close

Waiting together

Cheering together

Experiencing the race against time together

No need to lament

Who's like you and me, unspoken (Hidden in our eyes, only you can see-)

Can also hear it

The confusion, maybe can't be solved

But it lets me know it will always get better

Walking through the highs and lows with me along the way

Sharing trials and tribulations

If I ever doubted

You see through me even more than I do

If I'm with you through unease, I can be strong

We are one and all

Never separating you and me

...

Moments of emotion, hugging together

Moments of commotion, who passionately follows

Reminiscing about all kinds of moments always touches me

Those passionate words are still warm

...

Walking through the highs and lows with me along the way

Sharing trials and tribulations

If I ever felt bad

You see through me even more than I do

If I'm with you through unease, I can be strong

We are one and all

You and I, right or wrong

Directly saying or going too far

Anything can be faced together, that's what you call a team

I see you

I see myself through you

We understand each other even without speaking

Walking through the highs and lows with me along the way

It's rare to have you and me

Sparring, compromising

Yet you are more considerate than I am

Like light and shadow, watching together every night (Give me a little starlight)

How will tomorrow arrive?

In this space, I'm still not alone

We are one and all

I'm never alone

...

[Chinese]

一起相聚

一起鬥咀

一起經歷壯舉

到哪裡始終你我緊隨

一起等待

一起喝采

一起經歷時間的比賽

哪用感慨

誰像你我 未說出口 (藏在眼中 只得你望到-)

亦聽得到

困惑也許 未必解得到

卻令我知道 總會變好

沿途高低伴我走過

同考驗與消磨

假使我 疑惑過

你看透我竟比我多

如不安伴你經過便能硬朗

We are one and all

從不分你跟我

一刻感動 一起抱擁

一刻騷動 誰熱烈跟從

回味片段各種 總使我動容

那熱血的說話 還熱烘

沿途高低伴我走過

同考驗與消磨

假使我 難受過

你看透我竟比我多

如不安 伴你經過 便能硬朗

We are one and all

你共我 對或錯

直說的 或過火

甚麼都可相對 才是叫一夥

我看到是你

從你看到是我

彼此不說仍清楚

沿途高低伴我走過

難得是你跟我

交手過 磨合過

你卻較我 體恤更多

如光影伴我於 每夜同張望 (給我 一點點星光)

明天怎麼到訪

這空間裡 仍不只我一個

We are one and all

從不只我一個

  ➔ This couplet uses the structure "是" (shi, to be) to emphasize the subject being described. In the first line, "是我看到的是你" is rearranged to be "我看到是你" for poetic brevity, effectively saying "It is you that I see." The second line similarly emphasizes "是我" by stating "從你看到是我", meaning "From you, it is me that I see."
