平原上的歌好多都记录著
píng yuán shàng de gē hǎo duō dōu jì lù zhù
Many songs on the plain capture memories.
回不去的昨天最难得
huí bù qù de zuó tiān zuì nán dé
The hardest to reclaim is the yesterday that can never return.
人们怀念著 却不可得
rén men huái niàn zhù què bù kě dé
People reminisce, yet it cannot be attained.
玫瑰花才开就谢了
méi guī huā cái kāi jiù xiè le
The rose blooms only to wither quickly.
时间从来不会大发慈悲
shí jiān cóng lái bú huì dà fā cí bēi
Time never shows mercy.
文人墨水难写出原委
wén rén mò shuǐ nán xiě chū yuán wěi
Scholars' ink cannot capture the truths.
曾经顽固地跟世界对抗著
céng jīng wán gù dì gēn shì jiè duì kàng zhù
Once stubbornly resisting the world.
兜兜转转 头发有白的
dōu dōu zhuǎn zhuǎn tóu fà yǒu bái de
Turning and turning, hair turns gray.
树叶有时绿 有时荒的
shù yè yǒu shí lǜ yǒu shí huāng de
Leaves are sometimes green and sometimes barren.
为什么哭过更快乐?
wèi shén me kū guò gèng kuài lè?
Why is it that crying makes one happier?
时间从来不会任人支配
shí jiān cóng lái bú huì rèn rén zhī pèi
Time never lets itself be controlled.
朝夕相对 只能够回味
zhāo xī xiāng duì zhǐ néng gòu huí wèi
Facing each other day and night, the only thing one can do is savor the memories.
可惜白天想念黑夜 日落的神能不能慢一些?
kě xī bái tiān xiǎng niàn hēi yè rì luò de shén néng bù néng màn yī xiē?
Unfortunately, during the day I miss the night—can the setting sun slow down a bit?
可惜今天不能后退 是不是怎么都不给拖延?
kě xī jīn tiān bù néng hòu tuì shì bú shì zěn me dōu bù gěi tuō yán?
Unfortunately, today cannot be reversed—does it mean that nothing can be delayed?
可惜明天不会慈悲 回忆的影片都舍不得剪
kě xī míng tiān bú huì cí bēi huí yì de yǐng piàn dōu shě bù dé jiǎn
Unfortunately, tomorrow will not show mercy; I can't bear to cut the film of memories.
才发现时间摆了鸿门宴
cái fā xiàn shí jiān bǎi le hóng mén yàn
Only to realize that time has set up the Hongmen Banquet.
