Yeah 口哨声 谁一路跟? 一双双贪婪的眼神
Yeah, the whistle sounds, who follows along the way? A pair of greedy eyes,
这清晨谁开门 盗走全部的梦与信任?
This morning, who opens the door, stealing away all the dreams and trust?
酒馆敲杯的碰撞声透露他们要的人生
The clink of glasses in the tavern reveals the lives they desire,
正在干杯的人们 干杯的人们 狂欢那金很沉
The people who are toasting, the toasting people, reveling in gold that's heavy,
火药味 硝烟飞 孤注一掷的人是谁?
The smell of gunpowder, smoke rising, who is the one going all in?
驿站街 马蹄铁 火光熔成这个世界
On the street by the station, horseshoe prints, fire blending into this world,
我说 oh, oh 这金河 oh, oh
I say oh, oh, this golden river oh, oh,
用双手 oh, oh 淘洗一切想要的生活
With both hands oh, oh, washing away the life I want,
Hey 有人筛选泥土 却筛选出孤独
Hey, someone sifts through the soil yet finds only loneliness,
Hey 踩在坚硬的路 不服也不喊苦
Hey, walking on a hard road, not complaining nor feeling sorrow.
管他多少金矿 全都拿来铸造成 crown
No matter how many gold mines, let's forge them all into a crown.
然后轻轻的戴上 静静的欣赏 我眼里闪著光 唱
Then gently wear it, quietly admire, the light shines in my eyes, singing.
Every long night in the town, sing a song in blur
Every bright light shining down, sing a song in blur
这月色够我渡过河
This moonlight is enough for me to cross the river.
淘金的你我围著篝火 唱起了歌 有酒就喝
You and I, gold panning, gathered around the bonfire, singing a song, drink up if we have wine.
Every long night in the town, sing a song in blur
Every bright light shining down, sing a song in blur
沙金河始终蜿蜒著 你我微笑著仰望星河
The sandy gold river always winds, you and I smile as we gaze at the starry river.
追梦的歌 我们继续唱著呢 继续唱著呢
Chasing dreams, we continue to sing, continue to sing.
Yeah 口哨声穿过街灯 回荡在这淘金小镇
Yeah, the whistle cuts through the streetlights, echoing in this gold rush town.
穿马刺的鞋跟 前奔梦想的那种人生
With spurs on my heels, I race toward the life of my dreams.
疏芬山多少的矿坑 多少人手提煤油灯
How many mines in SoFi Mountain, how many people with oil lamps in hand?
渴望成就的灵魂 拯救的灵魂 呐喊著庆重生
Souls longing for achievement, souls in salvation, crying out to celebrate rebirth.
这剧院已散场 所有戏还写在脸上
This theater has emptied out, but the stories are still written on our faces.
这街上的目光 到底还有谁在隐藏?
Who among the gazes on this street is still hiding?
我说 oh, oh 这金河 oh, oh
I say oh, oh, this golden river oh, oh.
用双手 oh, oh 淘洗一切想要的生活
With my own hands oh, oh, sifting through all the lives I desire.
Hey 有人筛选泥土 却筛选出孤独
Hey, some sift through the earth, yet filter out loneliness.
Hey 踩在坚硬的路 不服也不喊苦
Hey, walking on this hard road, I won’t back down or complain.
管他多少金矿 全都拿来铸造成 crown
No matter how many gold mines there are, let's forge them all into a crown
然后轻轻的戴上 静静的欣赏 我眼里闪著光 唱
Then gently wear it, quietly admire it, my eyes sparkling with light, singing
Every long night in the town, sing a song in blur
Every bright light shining down, sing a song in blur
这月色够我渡过河
This moonlight is enough for me to cross the river
淘金的你我围著篝火 唱起了歌 有酒就喝
You and I, panning for gold around the campfire, we sang a song, drinking if there's wine
Every long night in the town, sing a song in blur
Every bright light shining down, sing a song in blur
沙金河始终蜿蜒著 你我微笑著仰望星河
The golden river always winds on, you and I smiling up at the starry river
追梦的歌 我们继续唱著呢 继续唱著呢
The song of chasing dreams, we keep singing on, keep singing on
