走过了很多地方 我来到伊斯坦堡
I've traveled to many places, and I’ve arrived in Istanbul,
就像是童话故事 有教堂有城堡
Just like a fairy tale, with churches and castles around.
每天忙碌地的寻找 到底什么我想要
Every day, I’m busy searching for what I truly desire,
却发现迷了路怎么找也找不著
But I find I'm lost, no matter how much I wander about.
心血来潮起个大早 怎么我也睡不著
On a whim, I rise early, but I can't seem to sleep,
昨晚梦里你来找 我才
Last night, in my dreams, you came to find me,
原来我只想要你 陪我去吃汉堡
It turns out all I want is you to accompany me for a burger,
说穿了其实我的愿望就怎么小
To put it plainly, my wish is really quite small,
就怎么每天祈祷我的心跳你知道
So every day I pray, hoping you know my heart's call.
杵在伊斯坦堡 却只想你和汉堡
Stuck in Istanbul, yet I only want you and a burger.
我想要你的微笑每天都能看到
I want to see your smile every day.
我知道这里很美但家乡的你更美
I know this place is beautiful, but you back home are even prettier.
走过了很多地方 我来到伊斯坦堡
I've traveled through many places, I’ve arrived in Istanbul.
就像是童话故事 有教堂有城堡
Just like a fairy tale, with churches and castles around.
每天忙碌地的寻找 到底什么我想要
Each day I busily search for what it is that I desire.
却发现迷了路怎么找也找不著
But I find myself lost, no matter how hard I try.
心血来潮起个大早 怎么我也睡不著
On a whim, I wake up early, yet I can't seem to sleep.
昨晚梦里你来找 我才
Last night in my dream, you came to me.
原来我只想要你 陪我去吃汉堡
Turns out I just want you, to join me for a burger.
说穿了其实我的愿望就怎么小
To put it simply, my wish is really so small.
就怎么每天祈祷我的心跳你知道
Praying every day, you know my heart beats for you.
杵在伊斯坦堡 却只想你和汉堡
Stuck in Istanbul, but all I think of is you and a burger.
我想要你的微笑每天都能看到
I want to see your smile every single day.
我知道这里很美但家乡的你更美
I know this place is beautiful, but you back home are even more so.
