等了几个世纪
Waiting for centuries to pass
你却在海的那方没有一点消息
Yet you’re far across the sea, with no news at all
离别后各自生活过了那么久
After parting, we’ve lived separate lives for so long
容颜也有点变
Our faces have changed a little too
我想我已经不懂你世界
I think I no longer understand your world
正要准备放弃
Just as I was ready to give up
你却从海的那方带来一丝回应
You brought a whisper of response from across the sea
相聚前等待的心过得那么急
The heart that waited to reunite has grown so anxious
生活也乱了秩序
Life has fallen into disarray
盼只盼早一点飞进你的世界
I only wish to hurry and fly into your world
为你朝思暮想 为你飞越重洋
For you, I think of you day and night, for you, I fly across the oceans.
千回百转也不能够阻挡
A thousand twists and turns cannot hold me back.
为你朝思暮想 为你日夜牵挂
For you, I think of you day and night, for you, I'm always concerned.
三言两语又怎能够表达
How can just a few words ever express it?
为你朝思暮想 为你飞越重洋
For you, I think of you day and night, for you, I fly across the oceans.
千辛万苦也不能够阻挡
Through endless hardships, nothing can hold me back.
为你朝思暮想 为你日夜牵挂
For you, I think of you day and night, for you, I'm always concerned.
只字片纸又怎能够表达
How can just a scrap of paper ever express it?

正要准备放弃
Just as I’m about to surrender.
你却从海的那方带来一丝回应
Yet you bring a whisper of response from the sea's far side.
相聚前等待的心过得那么急
The heart waiting before our reunion beats so anxiously.
生活也乱了秩序
Life has also lost its order.
盼只盼早一点飞进你的世界
I only hope to fly into your world a little sooner.
为你朝思暮想 为你飞越重洋
For you, I dream day and night, for you, I cross the oceans.
千回百转也不能够阻挡
No matter how many twists and turns, nothing can stop me.
为你朝思暮想 为你日夜牵挂
For you, I dream day and night, for you, I worry endlessly.
三言两语又怎能够表达
How can a few words truly express this?
为你朝思暮想 为你飞越重洋
For you, I dream day and night, for you, I cross the oceans.
千辛万苦也不能够阻挡
No hardship can ever hold me back.
为你朝思暮想 为你日夜牵挂
For you, I yearn day and night, with constant thoughts of you.
只字片纸又怎能够表达
How can a mere word or note truly express it?
