自你离开以后
Since you left my side,
从此就丢了温柔
I've cast aside all tenderness.
等待在这雪山路漫长
Waiting on this long snowy mountain road,
听寒风呼啸依旧
Listening to the cold wind howl as always.
一眼望不到边
A glance reveals no end in sight,
风似刀割我的脸
The wind cuts my face like a knife.
等不到西海天际蔚蓝
I can't wait for the azure sky at the western sea,
无言这苍茫的高原
Silently in this vast highland,
还记得你答应过我不会让我把你找不见
Do you remember you promised me you'd never let me lose you?
可你跟随那南归的候鸟飞得那么远
But you followed the southbound migratory birds, flying so far away.
爱像风筝断了线 拉不住你许下的诺言
Love is like a kite with a broken string, unable to hold your promised words.
我在苦苦等待雪山之巅温暖的春天
I'm desperately waiting for the warm spring atop the snowy mountain.
等待高原冰雪融化之后归来的孤雁
Waiting for the lonely wild goose to return after the plateau's ice and snow melts.
爱再难以续情缘 回不到我们的从前
Love, no matter how hard, cannot revive our faded bond, we can't go back to what we once had.
一眼望不到边
Endless, as far as the eye can see.
风似刀割我的脸
The wind cuts like a knife against my face.
等不到西海天际蔚蓝
I can't wait for the blue of the western sea to grace the horizon.
无言这苍茫的高原
Silent amidst this vast, barren plateau.
还记得你答应过我不会让我把你找不见
Do you remember you promised me you'd never let me lose sight of you?
可你跟随那南归的候鸟飞得那么远
But you followed the southbound migratory birds, flying so far away.
爱像风筝断了线 拉不住你许下的诺言
Love is like a kite whose string has snapped, I can't hold onto the promises you made.
我在苦苦等待雪山之巅温暖的春天
I am desperately waiting for a warm spring at the peak of the snow-capped mountain.
等待高原冰雪融化之后归来的孤雁
Waiting for the lonely wild goose returning after the glacier melts on the plateau.
爱再难以续情缘 回不到我们的从前
Love is hard to rekindle, we can't go back to the way things were.
还记得你答应过我不会让我把你找不见
Do you remember you promised me you wouldn't let me lose sight of you?
可你跟随那南归的候鸟飞得那么远
But you've followed the migratory birds south, flying so far away.
爱像风筝断了线 拉不住你许下的诺言
Love is like a kite whose string has snapped, I can't hold onto the promises you made.
我在苦苦等待雪山之巅温暖的春天
I am desperately waiting for a warm spring at the peak of the snow-capped mountain.
等待高原冰雪融化之后归来的孤雁
Waiting for the lonely wild goose returning after the glacier melts on the plateau.
爱再难以续情缘 回不到我们的从前
Love is hard to rekindle, we can't go back to the way things were.
