jiè mìng ér shēng
借命而生
Borrowed Life
céng jīng yǒu yì tiáo lù
曾经有一条路
Once there was a path
dài wǒ chuān guò lín zhōng de wù
带我穿过林中的雾
Leading me through the forest mist
yí liàng dān chē rèn píng suì yuè fǎn fù
一辆单车 任凭岁月反复
A bicycle, enduring the passage of time
céng jīng yǒu yí gè rén

Once there was a person
pái huái zài zhè lù de shēn chù
徘徊在这路的深处
Wandering deep along this path
yě céng liú xià guò

Who once left behind
tā cóng róng de wǔ bù

His unhurried dance steps

路的两旁是跌宕而模糊的风景
On both sides of the road are turbulent, blurry scenes
chuān guò le màn màn cháng yè
穿过了漫漫长夜
Through the long night

He arrives in spring but cannot see clearly

At both ends of the road is warmth he cannot reach
wǒ rú yuē ér zhì
我如约而至
I arrive as promised
tā què bù cí ér bié

Yet he leaves without a word
zhè jiè lái de shí guāng shì rú cǐ màn cháng

This borrowed time is so very long
céng jīng yǒu yì tiáo lù

Always wanting to escape, yet it was home

The mottled window closed on whose recklessness
céng jīng yǒu yí gè rén
