松鼠陪著核桃 在庭院捉迷藏
Squirrels play hide and seek with walnuts in the courtyard,
葡萄躲进橡木桶 酿出时光
Grapes hide in an oak barrel, brewing the passage of time.
夏日在玉米齿缝中游荡
Summer drifts among the corn's golden teeth,
我为妳准备的四季 正在生长
The four seasons I prepared for you are now growing.
炼金师从故事炼出土壤
The alchemist extracts soil from stories,
我阖上书也闻到了花香
As I close the book, I catch a whiff of flowers.
草地上的妳比果实芬芳
You, lying on the grass, are more fragrant than fruit,
妳就像天使手里的糖
You are like candy in the hands of an angel.
小男孩害羞没想起 自己是个雕像
The little boy, shy and unaware, sees himself as a statue.
沉浸在芦苇跟风合奏用美妙歌声赞扬
Immersed in the reeds, with the wind, we sing in perfect harmony.
世界因为妳而露出
The world reveals itself because of you
阳光灿烂的 形状
In a dazzling shape of sunlight
谢谢妳不然纯真是什么我早已经遗忘
Thank you, otherwise what is innocence I would have long forgotten
什么爱 不说 就已经存在
What love, unspoken, already exists
什么爱 望著 就全都明白
What love, just a glance, makes everything clear
妳笑 一点一点一滴漾开
Your smile, rippling slowly, bit by bit
一字一句 形容不来
Each word, each line, can't be described
是星空上的银海
It's the silver sea in the starry sky
月晕下 的双手
Hands beneath the moonlight's halo
越来越来越来 越依靠
Coming closer and closer, relying more and more
从来从来从来 不知道
Always, always, always, never knew
原来原来原来 有妳很骄傲
Turns out, turns out, turns out, having you is such a pride
小公主
Little princess
过来过来过来 约定好
Come here, come here, come here, as we promised
未来未来未来 的城堡
The castle of the future, future, future
将来将来将来 我们一起造
In the years to come, we’ll build it together
我会 当妳昼夜骑士 烈阳的树荫
I will be your knight day and night, in the shade of the blazing sun
让花朶为妳吟游的魔术师
Let the flowers be the bard that sings for you
每一道有妳风景
Every view with you is a masterpiece
帮妳按下快门的秘密情人
The secret lover pressing the shutter for you
什么爱 不说 就已经存在
What love, unspoken, already exists.
什么爱 望著 就全都明白
What love, gazing at it, everything becomes clear.
妳笑 一点一点一滴漾开
Your smile, gradually spreading softly.
一字一句 形容不来
Each word, each line, is hard to describe.
是星空上的银海
It's like a silver sea in the starry sky.
我后来 会在 纯白的礼堂
Later on, I'll stand in the pure white hall,
牵好久 的手 交给另个他
Holding the hand that's been in mine for so long, given to another.
眼泪 一点一点一滴流下
Tears, slowly, drop by drop, flow down.
感动 也会跟著留下
Emotions too, will follow and remain.
远远看著你们幸福
Watching your happiness from afar.
像前世我们有过的模样
Like the way we were in our past lives
