My feelings, you already cannot hear
ni de zhuan bian xiang duan diao de xian
Your changes are like a string that’s been broken

No matter how I adjust, the sound won’t be right
ni de gai bian wo neng gou fen bian
Your changes, I have the ability to distinguish

Asked you for your final decision before I left
wo tu ran shi huai de xiao
I suddenly laughed with a relieved heart
xiao sheng pan xuan ban shan yao
The laughter circled around the middle of a mountain
sui feng zai piao yao a yao
Floated with the wind, swaying

Arrived before you, pacing back and forth
ni lei shui wang xia de diao
Your tears streamed down

Saying that you will remember my goodness

I also curled up the corners of my mouth, smiling

Your beauty has already been given to whom?

Chasing and chasing again, I can’t get it back

I understand that the leaves that have left the trees
shu yu di shang de shi jie diao xie
Belong to the world of the ground, withering
