Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English
qǐ chū bù jīng yì de nǐ
起初不经意的你
You who were unconcerned at first
hé shào nián bù jīng shì de wǒ
和少年不经世的我
And me, a young man inexperienced in the ways of the world
hóng chén zhōng de qíng yuán
红尘中的情缘
Romantic ties in the mortal world
zhǐ yīn nà shēng mìng cōng cōng bù yǔ de jiāo zhuó
只因那生命匆匆不语的胶着
Only because of the hasty, wordless entanglement of life
xiǎng shì rén shì jiān de cuò
想是人世间的错
I think it’s a mistake in the human world
huò qián shì liú chuán de yīn guǒ
或前世流传的因果
Or the karmic cause and effect passed down from a previous life
zhōng shēng de suǒ yǒu
终生的所有
All that one has in a lifetime
yě bù xī huàn qǔ chà nà yīn yáng de jiāo liú
也不惜换取刹那阴阳的交流
Is also willing to exchange for a moment of communication between yin and yang
lái yì lái qù nán qù
来易来去难去
Coming is easy, coming and going is hard to leave
shù shí zǎi de rén shì yóu
数十载的人世游
A journey of several decades in the mortal world
fēn yì fēn jù nán jù
分易分聚难聚
Parting is easy, parting and gathering is hard to gather
ài yǔ hèn de qiān gǔ chóu
爱与恨的千古愁
The eternal sorrow of love and hatred
běn yīng shǔ yú nǐ de xīn
本应属于你的心
The heart that should have belonged to you
tā yī rán hù jǐn wǒ xiōng kǒu
它依然护紧我胸口
Still tightly guards my chest
wèi zhǐ wèi nà chén shì zhuǎn biàn de miàn kǒng hòu de fān yún fù yǔ shǒu
为只为那尘世转变的面孔后的翻云覆雨手
Only for the hand that stirs clouds and rains behind the changing faces in this mortal world
lái yì lái qù nán qù
来易来去难去
Coming is easy, coming and going is hard to leave
shù shí zǎi de rén shì yóu
数十载的人世游
A journey of several decades in the mortal world
fēn yì fēn jù nán jù
分易分聚难聚
Parting is easy, parting and gathering is hard to gather
ài yǔ hèn de qiān gǔ chóu
爱与恨的千古愁
The eternal sorrow of love and hatred
yú shì bù yuàn zǒu de nǐ
于是不愿走的你
So you who are unwilling to leave
yào gào bié yǐ bù jiàn de wǒ
要告别已不见的我
Want to bid farewell to me who has already disappeared
zhì jīn shì jiān réng yǒu yǐn yuē de ěr yǔ
至今世间仍有隐约的耳语
To this day, there are still faint whispers in the world
gēn suí wǒ liǎng de chuán shuō
跟随我俩的传说
Following the legend of the two of us
