Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “Not for Joy”
wǒ gào bié bú wéi yuǎn háng
我 告 别 不 为 远 行
I bid farewell not to travel far
zhī wéi xún nǐ de zú jì
只 为 寻 你 的 足 迹
Just to find your footsteps
wǒ chén mò bú wéi níng jìng
我 沉 默 不 为 宁 静
I am silent, not for peace
zhī wéi tīng nǐ de xiāo xī
只 为 听 你 的 消 息
Just to hear your news
wǒ qí dǎo bú wéi xiǔ mìng
我 祈 祷 不 为 宿 命
I pray, not for destiny
zhī wéi hái néng gòu xiàng yù
只 为 还 能 够 相 遇
Just to meet again
wǒ xiào zhe bú wéi huān xǐ
我 笑 着 不 为 欢 喜
I smile, not for joy
zhī wéi rěn zhù yǎn lèi de yǒng qì
只 为 忍 住 眼 泪 的 勇 气
Just for the courage to hold back my tears

你 却 说 记 得 要 忘 记
But you say remember to forget
wǒ qīng qīng fān kāi gù shì cóng tóu tīng
我 轻 轻 翻 开 故 事 从 头 听
I gently open the story and listen to it from the beginning
qíng shēn hé bì tān liàn zhè jǐ jù
情 深 何 必 贪 恋 这 几 句
Why do I have to covet these few lines when I love you so much
wàng bú diào xiàng sī rú fēng xuě rú yīng

I can’t forget my love like wind and snow like cherry

As if your footsteps are soft
mèng zhōng yě shì nǐ

In my dreams, it’s you too
mèng xǐng yě děng nǐ

I’m waiting for you even when I wake up
