[English]

Time silently counts three, four, five, six

After the sixth day

Humans began to exist in the universe

Night and day

The throat that took its first breath

Most afraid of destiny, the thief

I feel both good and bad with all my being

Asking if it's destiny

No matter how long, how lasting, how forever

Cannot compare to immortality

Lovers, from waving hello to holding hands

To letting go, to waving goodbye, that should be enough

The wound in my chest, a long cry into the night

Weathered by the wind

You and I will eventually drift as dust

Waiting for the thick, misty rain of the flower season

To become rain and stand watch

Your wishes and sorrows

Time is counting down, with you by my side

How I wish to smash the hourglass

But just to be in the same universe at the same time

Then I won't ask to linger

The next breath's intent

Will ultimately be taken away

Amidst the swirling snow, I tremble with you

Let's not look back

Asking if it's destiny

No matter how long, how lasting, how forever

Cannot compare to immortality

Lovers, from waving hello to holding hands

To letting go, to waving goodbye, that should be enough

The wound in my chest, a long cry into the night

Weathered by the wind

You and I will eventually drift as dust

Waiting for the thick, misty rain of the flower season

To become rain and stand watch

Your wishes and sorrows

How long can we love, how long can we yearn, how long will that be?

It's forever; if we've loved, it's immortal

Then I won't leave, won't break up, won't let go

Won't wave goodbye, fingers tightly intertwined

At the crossroads, my wound, greedy and yearning

Tiny and weak

Like dust drifting

Waiting for the thick, misty rain of the flower season

To become rain and stand watch

Your wishes and sorrows

At the crossroads, the wound in my chest

Greedy and yearning

Tiny and weak

Like dust drifting

Waiting for the thick, misty rain of the flower season

To become rain and stand watch

Just for the time of our reunion

[Chinese]

歲月在默數三四五六

第六天以後

人們開始存在宇宙

黑夜和白晝

呼吸第一口氣的咽喉

最怕命運小偷

壞和美好我用血肉去感受

問宿命是否

再多久再持久再永久

抵不了 不朽

戀人從揮手到牽手

到放手到揮手就該足夠

對夜的長吼我胸口的傷口

隨風陳舊

你我終會淪為塵埃漂流

等待花季煙雨稠

再化降水駐守

屬於你的願與愁

時間在倒數你在左右

多想踩碎沙漏

但能同時在同個宇宙

就不求滯留

呼吸下一口氣的預謀

終究會被沒收

漫天風雪我陪你顫抖

我們別回頭

問宿命是否

再多久再持久再永久

抵不了 不朽

戀人從揮手到牽手

到放手到揮手就該足夠

對夜的長吼我胸口的傷口

隨風陳舊

你我終會淪為塵埃漂流

等待花季煙雨稠

再化降水駐守

屬於你的願與愁

能愛多久想多久是多久

是永久愛過就不朽

那我不走不分手不放手

不揮手十指緊扣

分岔路口我傷口貪與渴求

渺小微弱

像塵埃漂流

等待花季煙雨稠

再化降水駐守

屬於你的願與愁

分岔路口我胸口的傷口

貪與渴求

渺小微弱

像塵埃漂流

等待花季煙雨稠

再化降水駐守

只為重逢的時候
