  1. 怎么拥有一道彩虹

    How can I possess a rainbow?

  2. 怎么拥抱夏天

    How can I embrace the winds of summer?

  3. 天上星星地上

    The stars in the sky laugh at the people below.

  4. 总是不能 不能觉得足够

    They never seem to understand, never feel enough.

  5. 如果爱上你的笑容

    If I fall for your smile,

  6. 怎么收藏怎么拥有

    How can I cherish it? How can I own it?

  7. 如果快乐不是为我

    If your happiness isn't for me,

  8. 会不会放手 其实才是拥有

    Could letting go actually be the true possession?

  9. 一阵吹来 风筝天空

    When a breeze blows through, the kite soars into the sky.

  10. 为了祈祷 祝福 感动

    Praying, blessing, and feeling for you.

  11. 终于身影消失尽头

    Finally, your silhouette fades into the end of the crowd

  12. 发现 笑著

    Only then did I realize, smiling while crying is the truest pain

  13. 那天 那个山丘

    That day, you and I, on that hill

  14. 那样唱著那一

    Singing those songs from that year

  15. 那样回忆 那么足够

    Those memories, they were enough

  16. 足够天天品尝寂寞

    Enough for me to taste loneliness every day

  17. 一阵吹来 风筝天空

    When a breeze comes, the kite soars into the sky

  18. 为了祈祷 祝福 感动

    Praying for you, blessing you, feeling moved

  19. 终于身影消失尽头

    Finally, your silhouette fades into the end of the crowd

  20. 发现 笑著

    Only then did I realize, smiling while crying is the truest pain

  21. 一阵吹来 风筝天空

    When a breeze blows by, the kite soars into the sky

  22. 为了祈祷 祝福 感动

    I pray for you, I bless you, I feel so moved

  23. 终于身影消失尽头

    Finally, your silhouette disappears at the edge of the crowd

  24. 发现 笑著 oh

    Only then do I realize, crying with a smile is the most painful, oh

  25. 如果爱上你的笑容

    If I fall in love with your smile

  26. 怎么收藏怎么拥有

    How can I keep it? How can I possess it?

  27. 如果快乐不是为我

    If your happiness is no longer for me

  28. 会不会放手 其实才是拥有

    Would letting go actually be a form of possessing?

  29. 知足快乐 忍受心痛

    The joy of contentment makes me endure the heartache

  30. 知足快乐 忍受心痛

    The joy of contentment makes me endure the heartache
