Lyrics & Translation
Bone-chilling cold, leaves fall all over the ground, turning yellow
Enduring it all, only then do I realize that on the rotting mud
Wildflowers bloom all around
Growing up, it's rare to laugh freely
Only then do I understand, how worries can be forgotten as much as possible
And in this sickness, I realize how tiny we really are
Learned to cherish every moment
Children have childhood fears
Adults share adult regrets
Year after year, adapting, growing old
And wisdom is facing it all calmly
As old age creeps in, telling stories like sleeping children
Talking about tough history, how can life be all boredom?
In the crowd, caring for the crowd
Running away, but always escaping loneliness
Sometimes getting closer, sometimes drifting away
Whoever disperses or gathers, it's all in the heart
In the mortal world, drifting in one day, suddenly looking back
Who do I still share everything with?
Growing up, it's rare to laugh freely
Only then do I understand, how worries can be forgotten as much as possible
In this sickness, I realize how tiny we really are
Resentments don't matter anymore
Children possess childhood fears
Adults have adult regrets
Year after year, adapting, growing old
And wisdom is facing it all calmly
As old age approaches, telling stories like tired children
But how can a tough history be all boredom?
Caring for others in the crowd
Running away, but always escaping emptiness
Sometimes moving closer, sometimes drifting away
Whoever disperses or gathers, all in the heart
In the worldly dust, drifting through a day, suddenly looking back
Who am I still with?
In this world, who has no fears? Who has no heartbreak? Who has no regrets?
Year after year, adapting, growing old
And wisdom is settling into the essence
Crossing over setbacks repeatedly, then suddenly looking back
What can be said about a lifetime's history? How can it be all boredom?
Carrying lingering worries, lingering dissatisfaction, lingering emptiness
Sometimes moving closer, sometimes drifting away
Still observing the final wasteland or great deeds
Deciding my wins and losses, my heart
Then turning hardships into crystals, transforming them into jade
Thanks to the rain
