最繁华的城市为何带来最寂寞的北极熊
Why does the grandest city bring the loneliest polar bear?
最纯洁的孩子如何走过最肮脏的垃圾场
How does the purest child walk through the dirtiest dump?
最混乱的回忆永远让我想起最专注的一刹那
The most chaotic memories always remind me of the most focused moment.
最丑陋的世界偶然让我看到最美丽的一首诗
In the ugliest world, I accidentally glimpse the most beautiful poem.
原来最暗的天空总有最闪烁的星星
It turns out the darkest sky always has the finest twinkling stars.
为唤不回的 为做不到的 为还在活的我和你
For what can't be reclaimed, for what's unattainable, for the living me and you.
原来最大的怀疑总有最渺小的自己
It turns out the greatest doubt often reveals the smallest self.
向蝴蝶知更 向肉体灵魂 向芸芸众生
To the butterfly and the robin, to the body and soul, to all living beings.
我该说感谢 还是对不起
Should I say thank you, or should I say I’m sorry?
最暴烈的流徙难道为了成就最温柔的小团圆
Could the most violent wandering truly aim to create the gentlest reunion?
最简单的渴望从来不想证明最荒谬的大时代
The simplest desire never seeks to prove the most absurd of eras.
原来最暗的天空总有最闪烁的星星
It turns out that the darkest skies always hold the brightest stars.
为受过伤的 为犯过错的 为还在活的我和你
For the wounded, for those who’ve erred, for the living me and you.
原来最大的怀疑总有最渺小的自己
It turns out the greatest doubts often belong to the smallest selves.
向黄土灰尘 向肉体灵魂 向芸芸众生
To the dust and ashes, to the flesh and spirit, to all living beings.
我该说感谢 还是对不起
Should I say thank you or apologize?
宇宙洪荒再沉默总有最闪烁的星星
Even when the universe lies silent, there are always the brightest stars.
某一天消失 某一天诞生 有一天宽恕我和你
One day we disappear, one day we are born, someday forgive me and you.
原来最大的怀疑总有最渺小的自己
It turns out the greatest doubts often belong to the smallest selves.
向恩怨爱恨 向肉体灵魂 向芸芸众生
To the loves and hates, to the flesh and spirit, to all living beings.
我该说感谢 再说对不起
I should say thank you, then say I'm sorry.
