如果枯萎是那花儿的未来
If withering is the future of that flower
你还会不会灌溉?
Will you still water it?
若向日葵不愿把脸转过来
If the sunflower refuses to turn its face around
你还会不会留下来?
Will you still choose to stay?
岸一直把浪推开
The shore keeps pushing the waves away
海浪却一次次回来
Yet the sea returns time and again
桑田沧海 爱是依旧无改
From fields to oceans, love remains unchanged
任你留下来还是离开
Whether you choose to stay or depart
我还会奋身地爱
I will still love with all my heart
尽管可能只剩残骸
Even if there may be nothing but remains
我还会满怀期待
I will still hold onto hope,
尽管可能会满身伤害
Even though I may be hurt all over.
再残酷的大海
No matter how cruel the sea,
永不可能把我打败
It can never defeat me.
我因爱而在 为爱醒来
I exist for love, awakened by love,
生若不爱 何等苍白?
Without love, what a pale existence!
看 岸一直把浪推开
See, the shore keeps pushing the waves away,
海浪却一次次回来
Yet the tides keep returning time and again.
桑田沧海 爱是依旧无改
Through sand and sea, love remains unchanged,
任你留下来还是离开
Whether you stay or leave.
我还会奋身地爱
I will still love with all my might,
尽管可能只剩残骸
Even if it may only leave behind the wreckage.
我还会满怀期待
I will still hold onto hope,
尽管可能会满身伤害
Even if it may bring me pain.
再残酷的大海
No matter how cruel the sea,
永不可能把我打败
It will never be able to defeat me.
我因爱而在 为爱醒来
I live for love, waking for love,
生若不爱 何等苍白?
What is life without love, so pale and dull?
你即使再把我推开
Even if you push me away again,
我还会再一次回来
I will come back once more.
桑田沧海 爱是依旧无改
Through fields of sand and oceans blue, love remains unchanged, it's true.
我是因爱而在 为爱醒来
I exist because of love, awakening for love anew.
