总是向你索取 却不曾说谢谢你
Always asking from you, yet never saying thank you,
直到长大以后才懂 得你不容易
It wasn't until I grew up that I understood how hard it was for you.
每次离开总是装作 轻松的样子
Every time I leave, I pretend to be carefree,
微笑著说回去吧 转身泪湿眼底
Smiling as I say goodbye, turning away with tears in my eyes.
多想和从前一样 牵你温暖手掌
How I long for things to be like before, holding your warm hand,
可是你不在我身旁 托清风捎去安康
But you're not by my side, sending my wishes on a gentle breeze.
时光时光慢些吧 不要再让你变老了
Time, time, slow down, don't let you grow old any further.
我愿用我一切换你岁月长留
I would give all I have to keep your seasons eternal.
一生要强的爸爸 我能为你做些什么
Strong and unyielding dad, what more can I do for you?
微不足道的关心 收下吧
A trivial concern, please accept it.
谢谢你做的一切 双手撑起我们的家
Thank you for everything you've done, supporting our home with both hands.
总是竭尽所有把最好的给我
You always give your all to provide the best for me.
我是你的骄傲吗 还在为我而担心吗
Am I your pride? Do you still worry about me?
你牵挂的孩子啊 长大了
That child you cared for has grown up.
(Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
(Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
(Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
(Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
多想和从前一样 牵你温暖手掌
I long to hold your warm hand, just like in the past.
可是你不在我身旁 托清风捎去安康
But you are not by my side, I send my wishes for your well-being through the gentle breeze.
时光时光慢些吧 不要再让你变老了
Time, oh time, slow down a bit, don't let you grow old any longer.
我愿用我一切换你岁月长留
I'm willing to trade all I have for your years to stay.
一生要强的爸爸 我能为你做些什么
Strong and steadfast father, what can I do for you?
微不足道的关心 收下吧
Here are my humble cares, please accept them.
谢谢你做的一切 双手撑起我们的家
Thank you for everything you've done, holding our home with your hands.
总是竭尽所有把最好的给我
You always give your all to provide me the best.
我是你的骄傲吗 还在为我而担心吗
Am I your pride? Do you still worry for me?
你牵挂的孩子啊 长大了
The child you cared for, has grown up now.
时光时光慢些吧 不要再让你变老了
Time, oh time, slow down a bit, don't let you grow old any longer.
我愿用我一切换你岁月长留
I'm willing to trade all I have for your years to stay.
我是你的骄傲吗 还在为我而担心吗
Am I your pride, still worrying for me?
你牵挂的孩子啊 长大了
The child you care for has grown up.
感谢一路上有你
Thank you for being there all along.
