人生中最美的珍藏
The most beautiful treasures in life,
正是那些往日时光
Are those moments from days gone by.
虽然穷得只剩下快乐
Though we were poor, only joy remained,
身上穿著旧衣裳
Dressed in our old worn clothes.
海拉尔多雪的冬天
In Hailar, a winter full of snow,
传来三套车的歌唱
Echoes the song of three cars passing by.
伊敏河旁温柔的夏夜
On the banks of the Irtysh, gentle summer nights,
手风琴声在飘荡
The sound of the accordion drifts along,
如今我们变了模样
Nowadays, we've changed our appearances,
为了生活天天奔忙
Rushing every day just to make a living.
但是只要想起往日时光
But as long as I think of the days gone by
你的眼睛就会发亮
Your eyes will light up bright
人生中最美的珍藏
The most beautiful treasures in life
还是那些往日时光
Are still those days gone by
朋友们举起了啤酒
Friends raise their beers high
桌上只剩半根香肠
Only half a sausage left on the table
我们曾是最好的伙伴
We were once the best of pals
共同分享欢乐悲伤
Sharing joy and sorrow side by side
我们总唱啊朋友再见
We always sing, oh friends goodbye
还有莫斯科郊外的晚上
And the nights outside Moscow
如今我们变了模样
Now we have changed our appearance
为了生活天天奔忙
Every day we hustle for a living
但是只要想起往日时光
But whenever I recall those past times
你的眼睛就会发亮
Your eyes begin to shine
如今我们变了模样
Now we have changed our appearance
生命依然充满渴望
Life still brims with desire
假如能够回到往日时光
If only we could return to those past times
哪怕只有一个晚上
Even if it's just for one night
假如能够回到往日时光
If only we could return to those past times
哪怕只有一个晚上
Even if it's just for one night
