如果我們不曾相遇

Lyrics:

[中文]

[English]

如果我們不曾相遇 我會是在哪裡？

If we had never met, where would I be?

如果我們從不曾相識 不存在這首歌曲

If we had never known each other, this song wouldn't exist.

每秒都活著 每秒都死去

Living every second, dying every second.

每秒都問著自己

Asking myself every second.

誰不曾找尋？誰不曾懷疑？

Who hasn't searched? Who hasn't doubted?

茫茫人生奔向何地？

Where does this vast life lead?

那一天 那一刻 那個場景

That day, that moment, that scene,

你出現在我生命

You appeared in my life.

從此後 從人生 重新定義

From then on, redefining life.

從我故事裡甦醒

Awakening from my story.

如果我們不曾相遇 你又會在哪裡？

If we had never met, where would you be?

如果我們從不曾相識 人間又如何運行？

If we had never known each other, how would the world operate?

曬傷的脫皮 意外的雪景

Sunburned skin, unexpected snowy scenes,

與你相依的四季

The seasons spent with you.

蒼狗又白雲 身旁有了你

The blue sky and white clouds, now I have you by my side.

匆匆輪迴又有何懼？

What fear is there in the hurried cycle of life?

那一天 那一刻 那個場景

That day, that moment, that scene,

你出現在我生命

You appeared in my life.

每一分 每一秒 每個表情

Every minute, every second, every expression,

故事都充滿驚奇

The story is full of surprises.

偶然與巧合 舞動了蝶翼 誰的心頭風起？

Coincidence and fate dance like butterfly wings; whose heart feels the wind?

前仆而後繼 萬千人追尋 荒漠唯一菩提

Countless people pursue, following one after another, the only Bodhi in the desert.

是擦身相遇 或擦肩而去 命運猶如險棋

Is it a fleeting encounter or a passing by? Fate is like a risky game.

無數時間線 無盡可能性 終於交織向你

Countless timelines, endless possibilities, finally intertwining with you.

那一天 那一刻 那個場景

That day, that moment, that scene,

你出現在我生命

You appeared in my life.

未知的未來裡未定機率

In the unknown future, uncertain probabilities,

然而此刻擁有你 (此刻擁有你)

Yet at this moment, I have you (I have you at this moment).

某一天 某一刻 某次呼吸

One day, one moment, one breath,

我們終將再分離

We will eventually part ways.

而我的自傳裡曾經有你

And in my autobiography, you once existed.

沒有遺憾的詩句 (沒有遺憾的詩句)

Verses without regrets (verses without regrets).

詩句裡充滿感激

The verses are filled with gratitude.

如果我們不曾相遇 我會是在哪裡？

If we had never met, where would I be?

如果我們從不曾相識 不存在這首歌曲

If we had never known each other, this song wouldn't exist.
