还未等到的烛光晚餐
The candlelit dinner still not arrived,
还是穿好新衫等你拣
Still dressed in my new shirt, waiting for your choice,
有点冷 长年累月 何其缓慢
A bit cold, through the years, how slow it goes.
还未手牵手攀登雪山
Still haven't climbed the snowy peaks hand in hand,
还是不敢迫你定时限
Still too afraid to put a deadline on you,
如若肯约会我
If only you would agree to a date with me,
你拣一个夜晚
You pick a night,
其实我只想试试
Honestly, I just want to try,
当一刹那幸运儿
To be the lucky one, just for a moment,
心息极容易
Heartbeats so easily.
何不敷衍我一次
Why not just humor me once?
这样的坚持
This kind of persistence
难挨但我不介意
Is hard to bear, but I don't mind
下半生 我知 我还是会等你
In my latter years, I know I will still wait for you
若应该与你一起 为何还未
If I should be with you, then why not yet?
年华易过 岁月如飞
Time slips away, the years fly by
渐看得出再没有传奇
Gradually I see there's no more legend
我们的 这一出戏
This play of ours
仿似具有惩罚我的意味
Seems to carry a meaning that punishes me
太疏离 但还未可抽离
So distant, but not yet separable
我彷佛赌著气
It feels like I'm betting on my breath,
要共你比 谁耐性好
To see who can bear it longer with you.
今生不可一起 过一世
In this life, we cannot share a lifetime,
还是会再次等你
Yet I will wait for you once more.
下一生 才能教我 有所预期
Only in the next life can you teach me to have expectations.
结局仍然未见 我始终不容许我自卑
The ending is still unseen; I won’t allow myself to feel inferior.
要是黄河未到 我又如何抛得下你
If the Yellow River has yet to arrive, how could I ever let you go?
还未等到的烛光晚餐
The candlelight dinner I have yet to wait for,
穷尽一生等你还
Devoting my whole life to waiting for you.
