我們都是這樣長大的

Paroles:

[中文]

[English]

連綿雨 靈感也浸沒了

Continuous rain, even inspiration feels soaked through

...

...

寒澈骨 落滿地葉黃掉

Bone-chilling cold, leaves fall all over the ground, turning yellow

捱下了 才發現腐泥上

Enduring it all, only then do I realize that on the rotting mud

遍山野花了

Wildflowers bloom all around

人大了 難得放肆地笑

Growing up, it's rare to laugh freely

才會懂 煩惱盡量忘掉

Only then do I understand, how worries can be forgotten as much as possible

而患病這刻 才發現極渺小

And in this sickness, I realize how tiny we really are

學會珍惜了

Learned to cherish every moment

兒童有著兒童畏懼

Children have childhood fears

成人都有成人唏噓

Adults share adult regrets

年年適應年年老去

Year after year, adapting, growing old

而智慧是沈著面對

And wisdom is facing it all calmly

垂垂老矣 說故事如孩童渴睡

As old age creeps in, telling stories like sleeping children

可說艱苦的歴史 怎會了無生趣

Talking about tough history, how can life be all boredom?

人群裡為人群顧慮

In the crowd, caring for the crowd

逃離總有逃離空虛

Running away, but always escaping loneliness

時而走近時而遠去

Sometimes getting closer, sometimes drifting away

誰散與聚 都居於心裡

Whoever disperses or gathers, it's all in the heart

紅塵漂泊在一日驀然回首

In the mortal world, drifting in one day, suddenly looking back

和誰還是一對

Who do I still share everything with?

...

...

人大了 難得放肆地笑

Growing up, it's rare to laugh freely

才會懂 煩惱盡量忘掉

Only then do I understand, how worries can be forgotten as much as possible

而患病這刻 才發現極渺小

In this sickness, I realize how tiny we really are

恨怨都不重要

Resentments don't matter anymore

兒童有著兒童畏懼

Children possess childhood fears

成人都有成人唏噓

Adults have adult regrets

年年適應年年老去

Year after year, adapting, growing old

而智慧是沈著面對

And wisdom is facing it all calmly

垂垂老矣 說故事如孩童渴睡

As old age approaches, telling stories like tired children

可說艱苦的歴史 怎會了無生趣

But how can a tough history be all boredom?

人群裡為人群顧慮

Caring for others in the crowd

逃離總有逃離空虛

Running away, but always escaping emptiness

時而走近時而遠去

Sometimes moving closer, sometimes drifting away

誰散與聚 都居於心裡

Whoever disperses or gathers, all in the heart

紅塵漂泊在一日驀然回首

In the worldly dust, drifting through a day, suddenly looking back

和誰還是一對

Who am I still with?

...

...

塵世內 誰無畏懼 誰無心碎 誰無唏噓

In this world, who has no fears? Who has no heartbreak? Who has no regrets?

年年適應年年老去

Year after year, adapting, growing old

而智慧是沈澱精髓

And wisdom is settling into the essence

連連跨過挫折後驀然回首

Crossing over setbacks repeatedly, then suddenly looking back

可說一生的歷史 怎會了無生趣

What can be said about a lifetime's history? How can it be all boredom?

如帶著 殘餘顧慮 殘餘不滿 殘餘空虛

Carrying lingering worries, lingering dissatisfaction, lingering emptiness

時而走近時而遠去

Sometimes moving closer, sometimes drifting away

還看最後 荒廢或壯舉

Still observing the final wasteland or great deeds

決定我成敗得失心胸裡

Deciding my wins and losses, my heart

然後磨難結晶 將化做翡翠

Then turning hardships into crystals, transforming them into jade

多得雨水

Thanks to the rain
