  1. 自觉轻松

    Stealing a moment, I feel so light,

  2. 即使身在市中

    Even in the bustling city bright.

  3. Stealing a moment, I borrow the breeze,

  4. 为我繁重

    To blow away the heavy city's tease.

  5. 漫步

    Strolling through the streets,

  6. 挤迫不透 也没有激动

    Crowded tight, yet lacking heat.

  7. 白云 (Ha! In a city!)

    Borrowing clouds (Ha! In a city!),

  8. (Ha! In a city!)

    Sending the wind (Ha! In a city!),

  9. 悠然重拾

    Carefree, I reclaim my leisure and ease,

  10. 今天都市 不再是容易

    In today's metropolis, it's not a breeze.

  11. 悠然重拾

    Leisurely reclaiming tranquility and ease

  12. 一切 奢侈一次

    Let go of everything, indulge just this once

  13. 失踪

    Stealing away, I'll naturally disappear

  14. 也不市中 (It's a city dream)

    But still not far from the bustling city (It's a city dream)

  15. Stealing away, borrowing a gentle breeze

  16. 为我吹散

    To scatter the dreams of city life for me

  17. 碰上

    Encountering heartfelt connections

  18. 不肯放松 主动

    Though unwilling to let go, I won't take the initiative

  19. 白云 (Ha! In a city!)

    Temporarily borrowing white clouds (Ha! In a city!)

  20. (Ha! In a city!)

    Sending him off (Ha! In a city!)

  21. 悠然重拾

    Calmly reclaiming leisure and grace,

  22. 今天都市 不再是容易

    In today's city, it's no longer easy.

  23. 悠然重拾

    Calmly reclaiming leisure and grace,

  24. 一切 奢侈一次

    And let's cast aside everything, indulging just once.

  25. 悠然重拾

    Calmly reclaiming leisure and grace,

  26. 今天都市 不再是容易

    In today's city, it's no longer easy.

  27. 悠然重拾

    Calmly reclaiming leisure and grace,

  28. 一切 奢侈一次

    And let's cast aside everything, indulging just once.

  29. 烈日天空

    The blazing sun in the sky,

  30. 身体 感动

    Embracing my body, the most touching of all.

  31. 白云 (Ha! In a city)

    Just borrowing the white clouds (Ha! In a city)

  32. (Ha! In a city)

    Sending my heart (Ha! In a city)

  33. 悠然重拾

    Gently reclaiming leisure and grace

  34. 今天都市 不再是容易

    In today's city, it's no longer easy

  35. 悠然重拾

    Gently reclaiming leisure and grace

  36. 一切 奢侈一次

    Let's throw everything aside, indulge this once

  37. 悠然重拾

    Gently reclaiming leisure and grace

  38. 今天都市 不再是容易

    In today's city, it's no longer easy

  39. 悠然重拾

    Gently reclaiming leisure and grace

  40. 一切 奢侈一次

    Let's throw everything aside, indulge this once

  41. 悠然重拾

    Leisurely reclaiming calm and grace,

  42. 今天都市 不再是容易

    In today's city, it's no longer easy.

  43. 悠然重拾

    Leisurely reclaiming calm and grace,

  44. 一切 奢侈一次

    So let's cast everything aside, indulge just once.
