Lyrics

Chinese Lyrics	English Translation
窗外的春天 Chuāngwài de chūntiān	The springtime blooming just outside
停在枝头的麻雀 Tíng zài zhītóu de máquè	A sparrow perched on a branch
初次察觉的旋律 Chūcì chájué de xuánlǜ	A melody heard for the first time
不经意拂过心尖 Bù jīngyì fú guò xīnjiān	Plucks at my heartstrings unforeseen
点一支香签 Diǎn yī zhī xiāngqiān	Incense burning
放下系紧的发辫 Fàngxià jì jǐn de fàbiàn	I let down my hair
看陌生柔软光线 Kàn mòshēng róuruǎn guāngxiàn	Gazing at the unfamiliar soft light
照平整如纸的晨间 Zhào píng zhěng rú zhǐ de chénjiān	That shines upon a morning paper-flat
追云影的羊群 Zhuī yúnyǐng de yángqún	A flock of sheep chasing shadows cast by clouds
任言语缓缓入眠 Rèn yányǔ huǎnhuǎn rùmián	Say anything to lull me to sleep
余白的哲学独自领会 Yúbái de zhéxué dúzì lǐnghuì	An empty philosophy realized alone
练习 Liànxí	Then put into practice
浮起一些 Fú qǐ yīxiē	Slowly rising
一人的星期天 Yīrén de xīngqītiān	A Sunday, all on my own
轻轻拢慢慢捻 Qīngqīng lǒng mànmàn niǎn	Gently reflecting, slowly recollecting
方糖悬滞的时间 Fāngtáng xuánzhì de shíjiān	As the sugar cube floats, fleeting in time
一杯闲暇两种挂念 Yībēi xiánxiá liǎngzhǒng guàniàn	One cup of respite, two feelings of fret
时间外的时间 Shíjiān wài de shíjiān	A time, beyond time
温柔的空房间 Wēnróu de kōng fángjiān	A gentle, empty room
一千零一种停歇 Yīqiānlíngyī zhǒng tíngxiē	A thousand and one indecisions
不想缺席又无法眷恋得完全 Bù xiǎng quēxí yòu wúfǎ juànliàn de wánquán	Unwilling to miss out, yet unable to fully commit
或许该学着石头忘却世界 Huòxǔ gāi xué zhe shítóu wàngquè shìjiè	Time to bury my head in the sand and forget the world
也贪婪一点也单纯一点 Yě tānlán yīdiǎn yě dānchún yīdiǎn	To be greedy, to be simple
等到又一颗月也沉入杯底 Děng dào yòu yīkē yuèyě chén rù bēidǐ	Until a new moon sinks to the bottom of the cup
还是会期待新的什么 Háishì huì qīdài xīn de shénme	Still looking for that something new
一人的星期天 Yīrén de xīngqītiān	A Sunday, all on my own
滑入了地平线 Huá rù le dìpíngxiàn	Slips beyond the horizon
无可名状的长夜 Wúkě míngzhuàng de chángyè	Like the nameless long night
你还好吗思绪明灭 Nǐ hái hǎo má sīxù míngmiè	Are you alright? My thoughts flicker
时间外的时间 Shíjiān wài de shíjiān	A time, beyond time
温柔的空房间 Wēnróu de kōngfángjiān	A gentle, empty room
方糖悬滞的时间 Fāngtáng xuánzhì de shíjiān	As the sugar cube floats, fleeting in time
融化以后再回未知盈满明天 Rónghuà yǐhòu zài huí wèizhī yíng mǎn míngtiān	Melted away, and back to tomorrow — so full of unknowns
