我在這兒 等著你回來

I'm here waiting for you to come back

等著你回來 看那桃花開

Waiting for you to return, to see the peach blossoms bloom

我在這兒 等著你回來

I'm here waiting for you to come back

等著你回來 把那花兒採

Waiting for you to return, to pick those flowers

...

暖暖的春風迎面吹 桃花朵朵開

The warm spring breeze blows towards me, the peach blossoms bloom

枝頭鳥兒成雙對 情人心花兒開

Birds on the branches pair up, lovers' hearts blossom

哎呦哎呦 你比花還美妙

Oh, oh, you're more beautiful than the flowers

叫我忘不了

Making me unable to forget

哎呦哎呦 秋又去春又來

Oh, oh, autumn goes and spring comes again

記得我的愛

Remember my love

I'm here waiting for you to come back

等著你回來 給你把花兒戴

Waiting for you to return, to wear the flowers for you

我在這兒 等著你回來

I'm here waiting for you to come back

嚐嚐家鄉菜 團圓樂開懷

Tasting hometown dishes, joyfully reuniting
