shàng shàn ruò shuǐ
上善若水
The Highest Good is Like Water
qiǎn quǎn dé hǎo xiàng yī wǎn shuǐ
缱绻得好像一碗水
Lingering like a bowl of water
jiù qí zhōng qiān bān zī wèi
就其中千般滋味
Containing countless flavors

不问你是谁只是沉醉
Not asking who you are, just indulging
tàng gān nǐ yǎn jiǎo huá guò de lèi
烫干你眼角滑过的泪
Drying the tears from your eyes
jì mò dé hǎo xiǎng huà chéng huī
寂寞得好想化成灰
So lonely I long to turn to ashes
wèn shì jiān jǐ dù lún huí
问世间几度轮回
Asking how many reincarnations the world has seen
bié wèn wǒ shì shuí ài dé hǎo lèi
别问我是谁爱得好累
Don’t ask who I am, love is so exhausting

Better make tonight especially beautiful

Let memories flutter in the air

Not afraid dreams may shatter
