Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “A Lifetime Thought”
nǐ kě céng tīng shuō guò xuě shān xuán yá
你 可 曾 听 说 过 雪 山 悬 崖
Have your ever heard, the cliff of the snow mountain
céng ràng rén hún rào mèng qiān
曾 让 人 魂 绕 梦 牵
Could lead people to be lost in a reverie
chuán shuō zhōng yǒu bǎo cáng zài shàng miàn
传 说 中 有 宝 藏 在 上 面
A legend once said there is a lot of treasures on it
yě cáng zhe wàn zhàng shēn yuān
也 藏 着 万 丈 深 渊
As well as hidden into bottomless chasm
duō shǎo rén wéi le tā jiù cǐ zhǎng mián
多 少 人 为 了 他 就 此 长 眠
Many people had put into eternal rest because of this
què bú néng bì shàng shuāng yǎn
却 不 能 闭 上 双 眼
Yet they died with their eyes open
nà shì shuí dēng shàng gāo gāo shān dǐng
那 是 谁 登 上 高 高 山 顶
No one knows if there were anyone had really climbed to the top
ràng chuán shuō jì xù liú chuán
让 传 说 继 续 流 传
So the legend continues
yī duàn duàn yī bù bù
一 段 段 一 步 步
Moment by moment, step by step, to get closer
yuè lái yuè jìn què zhǐ chǐ tiān yá
越 来 越 近 却 咫 尺 天 涯
It is so close yet worlds apart
yī tiān tiān yī nián nián
一 天 天 一 年 年
Day by day, year by year
yī biàn yòu yī biàn shí me dōu méi biàn
一 遍 又 一 遍 什 么 都 没 变
Again and again, but nothing has changed
nǐ yǐ wéi zhè jiū jìng shì gè chuán shuō
你 以 为 这 究 竟 是 个 传 说
You might think it is only a legend
xiàng xìn de rén bìng bú duō
相 信 的 人 并 不 多
Not many people would believe it
nǐ kě jiàn guò xuě shān jié bái wēi é
你 可 见 过 雪 山 洁 白 巍 峨
Have you ever seen such pure white and majestic snow mountains
què shǎn yào jīn sè de yòu huò
却 闪 耀 金 色 的 诱 惑
Ever so tempting, radiating its golden color
cōng míng de yú bèn de shàn liáng de rén
聪 明 的 愚 笨 的 善 良 的 人
Either a smart person, a fool, or an honest person
hái yǒu nǐ shú xī de rén
还 有 你 熟 悉 的 人
And everyone you know
zài shān pō zài xuán yá
在 山 坡 在 悬 崖
On the hillside, on the cliff
zài shān dǐng shēn yuān zài yī niàn zhī jiān
在 山 顶 深 渊 在 一 念 之 间
From the peak to the abyss, they’re all within momentarily view
wū xuě huā fēi yáng kàn xuě huā fēn fēn yáng yáng
呜 雪 花 飞 扬 看 雪 花 纷 纷 扬 扬
The snowflakes are flying upward, fluttering in the air
cōng míng de yú bèn de shàn liáng de rén
聪 明 的 愚 笨 的 善 良 的 人
Either a smart person, a fool, or an honest person
dōu shì nǐ shú xī de rén
都 是 你 熟 悉 的 人
They are all someone you knew
zài shān pō zài xuán yá
在 山 坡 在 悬 崖
On the hillside, on the cliff
zài diān fēng yún duān zài zhè rén shì jiān
在 巅 峰 云 端 在 这 人 世 间
At the highest cloud, all are in this world of us
wū ràng xuě huā fēn fēn yáng yáng
呜 让 雪 花 纷 纷 扬 扬
Let the snowflakes fluttering
nǐ kě céng jì dé nà xuě shān jiǎo xià
你 可 曾 记 得 那 雪 山 脚 下
Do you ever remember at the foot of the mountain
yǒu yī miàn qīng qīng hú shuǐ
有 一 面 清 清 湖 水
There is a crystal clear lake
chuán shuō zhōng zài nà shēn shēn hú dǐ
传 说 中 在 那 深 深 湖 底
Legend said at the very bottom of the deep lake
chén shuì zhe gǔ lǎo de mì mì
沉 睡 着 古 老 的 秘 密
There lies undiscovered ancient secrets
