当你走进这欢乐场
When you step into this joyful place
背上所有的梦与想
Carrying all your dreams and thoughts
各色的脸上各色的妆
On every face, unique colors of makeup
没人记得你的模样
No one remembers your appearance
三巡酒过你在角落
After three rounds of drinks, there you are in the corner
固执的唱著苦涩的歌
Stubbornly singing a bitter song
听他在喧嚣里被淹没
Listening to him drown in the uproar
你拿起酒杯对自己说
You lift your glass and say to yourself
一杯敬朝阳 一杯敬月光
One toast to the morning sun, one toast to the moonlight
唤醒我的向往 温柔了寒窗
Awakening my longings, softening the cold window
于是可以不回头地逆风飞翔
So I can soar against the wind without looking back
不怕心头有雨 眼底有霜
Fearless of the rain in my heart, the frost in my eyes
一杯敬故乡 一杯敬远方
A toast to my hometown, a toast to the faraway
守著我的善良 催著我成长
Guarding my kindness, urging my growth
所以南北的路从此不再漫长
So the paths north and south are no longer long
灵魂不再无处安放
The soul is no longer adrift without a home
躁动不安的座上客
Restless guest upon the seat
自以为是的表演著
Pretending to be clever, putting on a show
伪装著 舞蹈著 疲惫著
Disguising, dancing, worn out
你拿起酒杯对自己说
You raise your glass and say to yourself
一杯敬朝阳 一杯敬月光
One cup to honor the sunrise, one cup to toast the moonlight.
唤醒我的向往 温柔了寒窗
Awakening my longing, softening the cold windows.
于是可以不回头地逆风飞翔
So I can soar against the wind without looking back.
不怕心头有雨 眼底有霜
Not afraid of the rain in my heart, or frost in my eyes.
一杯敬故乡 一杯敬远方
One cup to toast the hometown, one cup to honor the distance.
守著我的善良 催著我成长
Guarding my kindness, urging me to grow.
所以南北的路从此不再漫长
Thus the roads north and south are no longer long.
灵魂不再无处安放
The soul no longer has a place to rest.
一杯敬明天 一杯敬过往
One cup to toast tomorrow, one cup to honor the past.
支撑我的身体 厚重了肩膀
Supporting my body, heavy on my shoulders.
虽然从不相信所谓山高水长
Though I never believed in the tales of lofty mountains and endless waters,
人生苦短何必念念不忘
Life is too short, why cling to the past so tightly?
一杯敬自由 一杯敬死亡
A toast to freedom, a toast to death,
宽恕我的平凡 驱散了迷惘
Forgive my ordinary ways, they dispel the confusion,
好吧天亮之后总是潦草离场
Alright, after dawn, it's always a hasty exit,
清醒的人最荒唐
The most foolish are those who are awake,
清醒的人最荒唐
The most foolish are those who are awake.
