还没好好的感受 雪花绽放的气候
hái méi hǎo hǎo de gǎn shòu xuě huā zhàn fàng de qì hòu
I haven't truly felt the beautiful snowfall yet.
我们一起颤抖 会更明白什么是温柔
wǒ men yì qǐ chàn dǒu huì gèng míng bái shén me shì wēn róu
When we shiver together, we will better understand what tenderness is.
还没跟你牵著手 走过荒芜的沙丘
hái méi gēn nǐ qiān zhe shǒu zǒu guò huāng wú de shā qiū
I haven't held your hand while walking through the desolate sand dunes.
可能从此以后学会珍惜 天长和地久
kě néng cóng cǐ yǐ hòu xué huì zhēn xī tiān zhǎng hé dì jiǔ
Maybe from now on I will learn to cherish eternity.
有时候有时候 我会相信一切有尽头
yǒu shí hòu yǒu shí hòu wǒ huì xiāng xìn yī qiè yǒu jìn tóu
Sometimes, I believe that everything has an end.
相聚离开都有时候 没有什么会永垂不朽
xiāng jù lí kāi dōu yǒu shí hòu méi yǒu shén me huì yǒng chuí bù xiǔ
There are times for both gathering and departing; nothing endures forever.
可是我有时候 宁愿选择留恋不放手
kě shì wǒ yǒu shí hòu nìng yuàn xuǎn zé liú liàn bù fàng shǒu
But sometimes I prefer to choose to linger and not let go.
等到风景都看透 也许你会陪我看细水长流
děng dào fēng jǐng dōu kàn tòu yě xǔ nǐ huì péi wǒ kàn xì shuǐ cháng liú
When I have seen through every scene, perhaps you'll stay and watch the quiet years flow by with me.
还没为你把红豆 熬成缠绵的伤口
hái méi wèi nǐ bǎ hóng dòu áo chéng chán mián de shāng kǒu
I haven't yet simmered red beans for you until they become a lingering wound.
然后一起分享 会更明白相思的哀愁
rán hòu yì qǐ fēn xiǎng huì gèng míng bái xiàng sī de āi chóu
Then sharing it together will make us better understand the sorrow of longing.
还没好好的感受 醒著亲吻的温柔
hái méi hǎo hǎo de gǎn shòu xǐng zhe qīn wěn de wēn róu
I haven't fully felt the tenderness of a waking kiss.
可能在我左右 你才追求孤独的自由
kě néng zài wǒ zuǒ yòu nǐ cái zhuī qiú gū dú de zì yóu
Perhaps only around me will you pursue the freedom of solitude.
有时候有时候 我会相信一切有尽头
yǒu shí hòu yǒu shí hòu wǒ huì xiāng xìn yī qiè yǒu jìn tóu
Sometimes, I believe that everything has an end.
相聚离开都有时候 没有什么会永垂不朽
xiāng jù lí kāi dōu yǒu shí hòu méi yǒu shén me huì yǒng chuí bù xiǔ
There are times for both gathering and departing; nothing endures forever.

kě shì wǒ yǒu shí hòu nìng yuàn xuǎn zé liú liàn bù fàng shǒu
But sometimes I prefer to choose to linger and not let go.
等到风景都看透 也许你会陪我看细水长流
děng dào fēng jǐng dōu kàn tòu yě xǔ nǐ huì péi wǒ kàn xì shuǐ cháng liú
When I have seen through every scene, perhaps you'll stay and watch the quiet years flow by with me.

What to listen for
The lyrics begin with what has not yet been fully felt or done, then shift into a repeated reflection on how everything has an ending, how gathering and leaving both happen in time, and how the speaker sometimes prefers not to let go. Along the way, the song uses a mix of plain grammar and poetic wording such as 感受, 珍惜, 留恋, and 看透, which makes it a strong short text for studying contrast, repetition, and expressive Mandarin.
- Recognize how 还没, 有时候, 可能, and 等到 shape meaning across the lyric.
- Understand how the song contrasts acceptance of endings with the wish to hold on.
- Learn several useful expressions for feeling, valuing, lingering, and seeing clearly.
How the song moves
Opening: not yet experienced
The lyric starts with several 还没 statements, describing things that have not yet been fully felt or done.
Middle: repeated reflection
The repeated lines focus on time, endings, and the idea that meeting and leaving both happen at certain moments.
Closing idea: holding on and waiting
The ending returns to preference and uncertainty, then imagines waiting until things are fully understood before staying together.
Translation choices
还没好好的感受 雪花绽放的气候
hái méi hǎo hǎo de gǎn shòu xuě huā zhàn fàng de qì hòu
- Natural English
- I haven't truly felt the season of blooming snow yet.
- Why
- This keeps 还没 as an unfinished state and preserves 雪花绽放的气候 as a poetic image of a season or atmosphere rather than flattening it into a plain factual statement.
相聚离开都有时候 没有什么会永垂不朽
xiāng jù lí kāi dōu yǒu shí hòu méi yǒu shén me huì yǒng chuí bù xiǔ
- Natural English
- There are times for coming together and for leaving, and nothing lasts forever.
- Why
- This rendering keeps the balanced structure of 相聚离开都有时候 and the general truth in 没有什么会永垂不朽 without over-intensifying the line.
等到风景都看透 也许你会陪我看细水长流
děng dào fēng jǐng dōu kàn tòu yě xǔ nǐ huì péi wǒ kàn xì shuǐ cháng liú
- Natural English
- When the scenery has all become clear, maybe you will stay with me to watch the water flow on and on.
- Why
- This version reflects 等到 as a future condition and keeps 细水长流 as a gentle, ongoing image instead of turning it into a different metaphor.
Useful Mandarin from the song

留恋liú liànto feel attached to; to be reluctant to leave
This word expresses emotional attachment and hesitation, fitting the line's choice to stay connected rather than let go.

看透kàn tòuto see through; to understand clearly
The lyric uses it for seeing through scenery in a broader sense, then moving toward a calmer outlook.
