Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

一粒沙滲進浪漫恆河

A grain of sand seeps into the romantic Ganges

一支花很希望結果

A flower hopes to bear fruit

每個渴望與伴侶一伙

Everyone longs to be with a partner

一粒星要撲向浩瀚銀河

A star wants to plunge into the vast galaxy

一絲煙都奢望愛火

Even a wisp of smoke craves the fire of love

美麗結局卻沒有幾多

But few stories have a beautiful ending

最希冀的那一個 心儀這一個

The one I yearn for the most, the one I admire

尋尋找找為何都找不到

Searching and searching, why can't I find it?

為何有無盡孤苦的單數

Why are there endless lonely singles?

合意的永遠最難擁抱

The one I like is always the hardest to embrace

未見到答案的傾慕

An admiration with no answer in sight

和伴侶無奈永遠差半步

Always half a step away from having a partner

誠誠懇懇祈求天主知道

Sincerely praying that God knows

期望會成就相戀的雙數

Hoping to achieve a double in love

遇見的往往以為找到

What you meet often you thought you found

又化作撲朔的煙霧

Turned into confusing smoke again

緣份似 迷了路

Fate seems lost

一盞燈盼照見寂寞行人

A lamp hopes to illuminate lonely pedestrians

一間屋都思念某君

A house misses someone

過客盼望會遇上關心

Travelers hope to meet concern

無助時需要一個 追求者一個

Helpless need a, A suitor

尋尋找找為何都找不到

Searching and searching, why can't I find it?

為何有無盡孤苦的單數

Why are there endless lonely singles?

合意的 永遠最難擁抱

The one you like is always the hardest to embrace

未見到答案的傾慕

An admiration with no answer in sight

和伴侶無奈永遠差半步

Always half a step away from having a partner

誠誠懇懇祈求天主知道

Sincerely praying that God knows

期望會成就相戀的雙數

Hoping to achieve a double in love

遇見的往往以為找到

What you meet often you thought you found

又化作撲朔的煙霧

Turned into confusing smoke again

誰又會榮幸到逃離荒島

Who will be fortunate enough to escape the deserted island?

那怕愛情這圈套

Even if it's a trap of love

找一千次早晚會遇到

Find it a thousand times, sooner or later you'll meet

我信我能夠找到

I believe I can find it

我信我能夠找到

I believe I can find it

恆河沙數誰能廝守終老

Who can stay with each other till the end as numerous as the Ganges sands?

還是有長伴一起的雙數

Or there are couples who stay together for long

逝去的 錯愛變成鼓舞

The past, wrong love becomes encouragement

就算鑽進了冤枉路

Even if you drill into a wrong road

無負你 行錯路

I will live up to you for going down the wrong road
