Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

情人駱驛為何盡興都別離

Why do lovers part ways, even after the fun?

仍然念舊就如熊貓般等你

Still holding on to the past, waiting for you like a panda

晴或雨 仍然堅守故地 全為你

Sunshine or rain, still staying in the same place—all for you

怕你一天歸來不可抱起

Afraid you won’t return one day and I can’t hold you

熊貓專一至死 不理如何傷悲

Panda’s devotion till death, regardless of how it hurts

從不轉換口味 但未能換到你

Never changing tastes, but I can’t get you

太過簡單如何玩爭逐遊戲

So simple—how can we play this chasing game?

偏等不到誰人救起

Just waiting for no one to save us

熊貓只等鑽禧 不寄望能驚喜

The panda waits for a ring, not expecting surprises

誰可以認真地 願容納這絕種的悽美

Who can truly accept and contain this extinct sadness?

無論寄居在何地

No matter where we dwell

叢林的土地 仍然芳香得懷念你

In the jungle land, still fragrant—missing you

仍然日復日從沒有數日期

Day after day, never counting the days

無論十月十年熊貓都等你

Whether it’s October or ten years, the panda waits for you

晴或雨 仍然堅守故地 如果你

Sunshine or rain, still staying in the same place—if you

怕你一天歸來未可勾起

Fear you won’t come back one day, and I can’t ignite

熊貓專一至死 不理如何傷悲

Panda’s devotion till death, regardless of how it hurts

從不轉換口味 但未能換到你

Never changing tastes, but I can’t get you

太過簡單如何玩爭逐遊戲

So simple—how can we play this chasing game?

偏等不到誰人救起

Just waiting for no one to save us

熊貓只等鑽禧 不寄望能驚喜

The panda waits for a ring, not expecting surprises

誰可以認真地 願容納這絕種的悽美

Who can truly accept and contain this once-in-a-lifetime sorrow?

無論寄居在何地

No matter where we dwell

叢林的土地 仍然芳香得懷念你

In the jungle land, still fragrant—missing you

熊貓專一至死 不理如何傷悲

The panda’s devotion till death, regardless of how it hurts

從不轉換口味 但未能換到你

Never changing tastes, but I can’t get you

太過簡單如何玩爭逐遊戲

So simple—how can we play this chasing game?

偏偏根本無人會想起

Especially when no one would remember

熊貓只等鑽禧 不渴望全新驚喜

The panda waits for a ring, not craving new surprises

誰可以認真地 願容納這絕世的福氣

Who can truly accept and embrace this extraordinary blessing?

無論寄居在何地

No matter where we dwell

叢林的土地 傻傻等的只會為你

叢林的土地 傻傻等的只會為你
