Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “Not Bitter”
shí yuè huái tāi tí kū kǔ nán zhī chū
十 月 怀 胎 啼 哭 苦 难 之 初
After ten months of pregrancy, a crying baby marks the beginning of suffering
suì yuè liú shì bái shǒu shuāi lǎo gū dú
岁 月 流 逝 白 首 衰 老 孤 独
Years pass by, ending with grey hair, aging and loneliness
bìng tòng shù fù tú dú ròu shēn nán chù
病 痛 束 缚 荼 毒 肉 身 难 处
Bound by illness, the body of flesh suffer
wú cháng jiàng lín shēn miè xū wú bái gǔ
无 常 降 临 身 灭 虚 无 白 骨
Impermanence arrives, the body vanishes, leaving behind a void skeleton
yuàn zēng huì yī niàn chén fú
怨 憎 会 一 念 沉 浮
Resentment is just a thought, up and down
ài bié lí wú yǐ huí fù
爱 别 离 无 以 回 复
Love and part, there’s no answer for that
qiú bú dé tān lán zǒng bú mǎn zú
求 不 得 贪 婪 总 不 满 足
Desire but can’t get, greed will never be satisfied
shēn xīn líng yǔ mí tú bú dé dùn wù
身 心 囹 圄 迷 途 不 得 顿 悟
Both body and mind are locked up, lost in ways, can’t have enlightenment
hé kǔ hé kǔ
何 苦 何 苦
Why the bitterness, why the bitterness
shuí bú yuàn wén jí lè tǔ
谁 不 愿 闻 极 乐 土
Who doesn’t wish for a land of blessing
hǎo kǔ hǎo kǔ
好 苦 好 苦
Really bitter, really bitter
zhī néng lún huí suō pó lù
只 能 轮 回 娑 婆 路
Can only resort to the path of reincarnation
zài wǒ yǎn qián tòng kū wǒ què wú fǎ pèng chù
在 我 眼 前 痛 哭 我 却 无 法 碰 触
Crying right in front of me, yet I can’t touch you
hài pà yuè zǒu yuǎn jì yì yuè mó hú
害 怕 越 走 远 记 忆 越 模 糊
The further the fear goes away, the more vague the memory
yuàn líng hún néng cháng zhù cháo cháo yòu mù mù
愿 灵 魂 能 常 驻 朝 朝 又 暮 暮
May the soul can stay, day and night
néng wéi nǐ shǒu hù zhī wéi nǐ shǒu hù
能 为 你 守 护 只 为 你 守 护
So I can guard you, only guard you
ràng rén xué huì fù chū cái dǒng le xìng fú
让 人 学 会 付 出 才 懂 了 幸 福
Only those people who learn to give will understand happiness
zài duō zhí niàn dōu zài nǐ bú kǔ bú kǔ
再 多 执 念 都 在 你 不 苦 不 苦
Obsession all lies in yourself, not bitter, not bitter
ài shì zuì měi hǎo de mí bǔ shèng guò le fú tú
爱 是 最 美 好 的 弥 补 胜 过 了 浮 屠
Love is the best salvation, even better than Buddha
hái néng wàng zhe nǐ jiù yǐ mǎn zú
还 能 望 着 你 就 已 满 足
I’m already satisfied since I can still look at you
ràng rén xué huì fù chū cái dǒng le xìng fú
让 人 学 会 付 出 才 懂 了 幸 福
Only those people who learn to give will understand happiness
zài duō zhí niàn dōu zài nǐ bú kǔ bú kǔ
再 多 执 念 都 在 你 不 苦 不 苦
Obsession all lies in yourself, not bitter, not bitter
ài shì zuì měi hǎo de mí bǔ shèng guò le fú tú
爱 是 最 美 好 的 弥 补 胜 过 了 浮 屠
Love is the best salvation, even better than Buddha
hái néng wàng zhe nǐ jiù yǐ mǎn zú
还 能 望 着 你 就 已 满 足
I’m already satisfied since I can still look at you
huí shǒu xiào kàn lái shí lù yǒu nǐ péi bàn
回 首 笑 看 来 时 路 有 你 陪 伴
Look back and smile at the way here, I have you by my side
huí yì chéng le jiù shú bú kǔ bú kǔ
回 忆 成 了 救 赎 不 苦 不 苦
Memory becomes salvation, not bitter, not bitter
