  1. 剪一段时光缓缓流淌

    Cut a slice of time that flows slowly by

  2. 流进了月色中微微荡漾

    Drifting softly within the moonlight's sigh

  3. 弹一首小荷淡淡的香

    Play a gentle tune where the lotus blooms

  4. 美丽的琴音就落在我身旁

    As beautiful melodies settle near me like perfume

  5. 萤火虫点亮夜的星光

    Fireflies ignite the night with their glowing spark

  6. 谁为我添一件梦的衣裳

    Who will dress me in a dream, weaving it from the dark?

  7. 推开那扇心窗远远地望

    Open that window of my heart, gaze far away

  8. 谁采下那一朵昨日的忧伤

    Who will pick that flower of yesterday's dismay?

  1. 我像只鱼儿在你的荷塘

    Like a fish, I swim in your serene pond's embrace

  2. 只为和你守候那皎白月光

    Only to wait with you beneath the pure moon's grace

  3. 游过了四季 荷花依然香

    Swam through the four seasons, the lotus still fragrant,

  4. 等你宛在水中央

    Waiting for you, floating in the water's embrace.

  5. 萤火虫点亮夜的星光

    Fireflies illuminate the starry night,

  6. 谁为我添一件梦的衣裳

    Who will dress me in a garment of dreams?

  7. 推开那扇心窗远远地望

    Pushing open that window of the heart, gazing far away,

  8. 谁采下那一朵昨日的忧伤

    Who plucks that flower of yesterday's sorrow?

  9. 我像只鱼儿在你的荷塘

    I’m like a fish in your lotus pond,

  10. 只为和你守候那皎白月光

    Just to wait with you for the silver moonlight.

  11. 游过了四季 荷花依然香

    Swam through the four seasons, the lotus still fragrant,

  12. 等你宛在水中央

    Waiting for you, floating in the water's embrace.

  13. 那时年轻的你

    Back then, the young you

  14. 和你水中的模样

    And your reflection in the water

  15. 依然不变的仰望

    Still gazing up unchanged

  16. 漫天迷人的星光

    A sky full of enchanting starlight

  17. 谁能走进你的心房

    Who can walk into your heart's chamber?

  18. 采下一朵莲

    Plucking a single lotus blossom

  19. 是那夜的芬芳还是你的发香

    Is it the fragrance of that night or your hair's scent?

  20. 荷塘呀荷塘 你慢慢慢慢唱哟

    Lotus pond, oh lotus pond, you slowly sing

  21. 月光呀月光 你慢慢慢慢听哟

    Moonlight, oh moonlight, you slowly listen

  22. 鱼儿呀鱼儿 你慢慢慢慢游哟

    Fish, oh fish, you slowly swim

  23. 淡淡的淡淡的 淡淡的月光

    Faintly, faintly, the pale moonlight glows,

  24. 我像只鱼儿在你的荷塘

    I’m like a fish in your lotus pond,

  25. 只为和你守候那皎白月光

    Only waiting to share the pure, bright moonlight with you.

  26. 游过了四季 荷花依然香

    Swam through the four seasons, the lotus still scents the air.

  27. 等你宛在水中央

    Waiting for you, as if in the heart of the water.

  28. 我像只鱼儿在你的荷塘

    I’m like a fish in your lotus pond,

  29. 只为和你守候那皎白月光

    Only waiting to share the pure, bright moonlight with you.

  30. 游过了四季 荷花依然香

    Swam through the four seasons, the lotus still scents the air.

  31. 等你宛在水中央

    Waiting for you, as if in the heart of the water.

  32. 等你宛在水中央

    Waiting for you, as if in the heart of the water.
