Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “Star Lighting”
tái tóu de yī piàn tiān shì nán ér de yī piàn tiān
抬头的一片天 是男儿的一片天
The sky above is a man’s sky
céng jīng zài mǎn tiān de xīng guāng xià zuò mèng de shào nián
曾经在满天的星光下做梦的少年
The boy who once dreamed under starry skies
bù zhī dào tiān duō gāo bù zhī dào hǎi duō yuǎn
不知道天多高 不知道海多远
Knew not how high the sky, nor how far the sea
què fā shì yào dài zhe nǐ yuǎn zǒu dào hǎi jiǎo tiān biān
却发誓要带着你远走 到海角天边
Yet vowed to take you to the ends of the earth
bù fù zé rèn de shì yán nián shào qīng kuáng de wǒ
不负责任的誓言 年少轻狂的我
Irresponsible vows of my reckless youth
zài hēi àn zhōng mí shī cái fā xiàn zì jǐ de cuì ruò
在黑暗中迷失才发现自己的脆弱
Lost in darkness, I discovered my fragility
kàn zhe nǐ kū hóng de yǎn jīng xiǎng zhe yuǎn lí de jiā mén
看着你哭红的眼睛 想着远离的家门
Seeing your tear-red eyes, thinking of home left behind

满天的星星请为我点盏希望的灯火
Starry sky, please light a lamp of hope for me

Starlight lamps illuminate my home

Starlight lamps illuminate my future

With a little light to warm a child’s heart
xiàn zài de yī piàn tiān shì āng zāng de yī piàn tiān
现在的一片天 是肮脏的一片天
Now the sky above is a dirty sky
xīng xīng zài wén míng de tiān kōng lǐ zài yě kàn bù jiàn
星星在文明的天空里再也看不见
Stars can no longer be seen in civilized skies
tiān qí shí bìng bù gāo hǎi qí shí yě bù yuǎn

A faint starlight peeks out at the horizon

It’s your gaze still waiting for me in the distance
