尽力地活在大地抵挡风与浪及忧伤
Striving to live on this earth, facing the winds, waves, and sorrow
就是被命运玩弄我亦未迷惘存冀望
Though fate toys with me, I'm not lost; I still hold hope
无论多少的路障
No matter how many obstacles lie ahead
为了争取我期望
I fight for the dreams I cherish
全力凭干劲
With all my strength and determination
觅寻至爱的理想
In search of the ideals of true love
名利看淡只需心快乐
Fame and fortune mean little, just need a joyful heart
笑声供给我营养
Laughter nourishes my soul
盲目奋斗定会创伤
Blindly struggling will surely leave scars
迷失方向
Lost in direction
人要上进 循正路向
Strive to rise, walk the righteous path,
诚恳的去闯
With sincerity, boldly venture forth.
今天勤劳 他朝酬劳
Today’s hard work will pay off tomorrow,
可开心的去享
So joyfully enjoy the fruits of your labor.
凭正义干 人格自创
Act with justice, create your own character,
人生真义意
The true meaning of life,
名利转眼逝去 彷似幻觉
Fame and fortune fleeting like a mirage,
为何总强求投身名利网
Why do we always seek to entangle ourselves in the web of fame and wealth?
尽力地活在大地抵挡风与浪及忧伤
Live fully on this earth, resisting the winds, waves, and sorrows,
就是被命运玩弄我亦未迷惘存冀望
Though fate may toy with me, I remain undaunted and hopeful.
无论多少的路障
No matter how many obstacles arise,
为了争取我期望
I strive for my expectations,
全力凭干劲
Giving it my all with sheer grit,
觅寻至爱的理想
In search of my beloved ideals.
名利看淡只需心快乐
With fame and fortune set aside, I just need a happy heart,
笑声供给我营养
Laughter nourishes my soul,
盲目奋斗定会创伤
Blindly struggling can lead to scars,
迷失方向
Lost in direction,
人要上进 循正路向
One must advance, following the right path,
诚恳的去闯
Approaching with sincerity to break through.
今天勤劳 他朝酬劳
Work hard today, reap rewards tomorrow,
可开心的去享
And enjoy with a happy heart.
凭正义干 人格自创
With justice as our guide, we carve our own way,
人生真义意
Such is the true meaning of life.
名利转眼逝去 彷似幻觉
Fame and fortune fade away in the blink of an eye, it's like an illusion.
为何总强求投身名利网
Why do we always strive to get caught in the web of fame?
人要上进 循正路向
One must strive upward, walking the right path,
诚恳的去闯
With sincerity to break new ground.
今天勤劳 他朝酬劳
Work hard today, reap rewards tomorrow,
可开心的去享
And enjoy with a happy heart.
凭正义干 人格自创
With justice as my guide, I shape my own identity
人生真义意
The true meaning of life
名利转眼逝去 彷似幻觉
Fame and fortune fade away in the blink of an eye, like a mirage
为何总强求投身名利网
Why do we always force ourselves into the web of fame and fortune?
