肖战 (Xiao Zhan)
Remaining Years (Joy of Life) - English Translation
Time flows through the river of ages
Reincarnating endlessly
Memories from the past and present
Interweave endlessly
Drunken under the boundless constellations
Spring goes and autumn comes in the blink of an eye
Wild geese have flown to the south
Yet who can bear to leave behind the thought of a lifetime with you?
A thousand times, it plays in my dreams
Watching flowers fall silently
I count the remaining years, year after year while drifting from place to place
Even if we can no longer see each other
With past ties severed
I hold no regrets or grudges
Through the whirring passage of time I miss you just as before
Watching the moon til dawn, still sleepless
I leave a fragment of the gentle heart to look over the remaining years
Even after crossing countless mountains in fire and smoke
You’ve been with me since the beginning
By my side
Waiting for the tide to change with time to bury the remaining glow of my life
Is it because of the piling of memories that the wine cup is overflowing?
Drunken under the boundless constellations
Spring goes and autumn comes in the blink of an eye
Wild geese have flown to the south
Yet who can bear to leave the thought of a lifetime with you?
A thousand times it plays in my dreams
Watching flowers fall, silently
I count the remaining years, year after year while drifting from place to place
Even if we can no longer see each other
With past ties severed
I hold no regrets or grudges
Through the whirring passage of time I miss you just as before
Watching the moon til dawn, still sleepless
I leave a fragment of this gentle heart to look over the remaining years
Even after passing countless mountains in fire and smoke
You’ve been with me since the beginning
By my side
Watching flowers fall, silently
I count the remaining years, year after year while drifting from place to place
Even if we can no longer see each other
With past ties severed
I hold no regrets or grudges
Through the whirring passage of time I miss you just as before
Watching the moon til dawn, still sleepless
I leave a fragment of this gentle heart to look over the remaining years
Even after passing countless mountains in fire and smoke
You’ve been with me since the beginning
By my side
