再見 寧靜海 – Bilingual Lyrics Chinese/English

• By: 陳卓賢

Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

最快樂時候 未知 最快樂

The happiest moments, unknown, the happiest

到跌落凡塵 就知 再沒有

Falling into this mortal world, I realize, there’s no more

想歸去 再邂逅

Longing to return, to meet again

這黑暗 的宇宙

This dark universe

卻注定 你我 分手

But it's destined, you and I, to part ways

盼再度 遊寧靜海 星光裡 看地球

Hoping to visit quiet seas again, under the starlight, watching the Earth

卻痛恨 良辰盡 不許說未夠

Yet hating how the good days end, I wasn’t allowed to say it’s not enough

彼此也 再難回到

We can never go back to

當初的宇宙

The universe we once knew

讓歴史 改變那步 無法遠走

Let history change that step, impossible to escape

著地之後 請忍痛放手

After landing, please endure and let go

變凡人之後 教我遺忘星宿

After becoming an ordinary person, teach me to forget the constellations

私奔到達過月球

Eloped all the way to the moon

掙不脫命中魔咒

Cannot escape the curse in fate

別說和誰 印過一雙 腳印就夠

Don’t say with whom—just a single pair of footprints is enough

這晚夜 毫無重心 的感覺 再襲來

This evening, the feeling of aimless night, strikes again

這片地 完全無引力 怎麽愛

This land is completely gravityless, how to love

不敢再次 抬頭看 天邊的朗月

Daring not to lift my head to look at the bright moon in the sky again

讓代表心那塊石 沉向深海

Let the stone representing my heart sink into the deep sea

著地之後 請忍痛放手

After landing, please endure and let go

變凡人之後 教我遺忘星宿

After becoming an ordinary person, teach me to forget the constellations

私奔到達過月球

Eloped all the way to the moon

掙不脫命中魔咒

Cannot escape the curse in fate

痛的 是那夜 那段 美不勝收

Painful is that night, that breathtaking moment

來年只願 取消了中秋

Next year, I only wish to cancel the Mid-Autumn Festival

慶團圓之夜 毋須更內疚

Celebrating the night of reunion without guilt

銀河系很濶 你共我

The galaxy is vast, you and I

沒什麼重量 像蜉蝣

No weight, like mayflies

離和合 哪值 半秒擔憂

Parting and reunion, worth half a second of worry

重頭修煉 得到過放手

Relearn from the start, found the strength to let go

有誰還苦候 廻光照亮污垢

Who still waits painfully for the light to cleanse the dirt?

時代再快樂 不可帶著走

No matter how happy the times are, they can't be taken away

沒落在深溝 那片月色

Fallen into the deep ditch, that moonlight

有過就夠

Having experienced it is enough
