路过,人间烟火 (iù guò rén jiān yān huǒ)

Passing by, the everyday life of ordinary people

路过,人间烟火 (iù guò rén jiān yān huǒ)

Time, like the evening glow, slowly dyes its colors
时光如晚霞慢慢染色
shíguāng rú wǎnxiá màn man rǎnsè
Memories, if beautiful, are always flecked
回忆若美好总斑驳
huíyì ruò měihǎo zǒng bānbó
How many people have passed through the rings of your years
多少人从你年轮经过
duōshǎo rén cóng nǐ niánlún jīngguò
Flowing through the river of time, yet you are clearer than before
流过时间的河 你却比从前清澈
liúguò shíjiān de hé, nǐ què bǐ cóngqián qīngchè

Between the buildings, dreams pile up, the alleys hold fragmented whispers
在楼宇间梦堆叠 巷弄有碎念
zài lóuyǔ jiān mèng duīdié, xiàng nòng yǒu suì niàn
Before sunset, cooking smoke rises, the road is still long
日落前起炊烟 路还远
rìluò qián qǐ chuīyān, lù hái yuǎn

The world's illuminated windows are a display of fireworks
人间照亮的窗是一场烟火
rénjiān zhàoliàng de chuāng shì yī chǎng yānhuǒ
The wishes made in their blooming, you have heard them all before
绽放中许的愿你都曾听过
zhànfàng zhōng xǔ de yuàn nǐ dōu céng tīngguò
Those joys and sorrows, bitters and griefs, have turned into creases
那些喜乐苦悲化成了皱褶
nàxiē xǐlè kǔ bēi huà chéngle zhòuzhé
Making peace with the long years in quiet simplicity
与漫长的岁月平淡里讲和
yǔ màncháng de suìyuè píngdàn lǐ jiǎnghé

Those silhouettes left behind by time
时间留下的那些剪影
shíjiān liúxià de nàxiē jiǎnyǐng
Having roamed the whole world, and still young
逛遍了世间 还年轻
guàng biànle shìjiān, hái niánqīng
Passing through a scene of a time with you
走过关于你一段光景
zǒuguò guānyú nǐ yī duàn guāngjǐng
The years are a journey afar, both brief and long
岁月是一场短暂又漫长的远行
suìyuè shì yī chǎng duǎnzàn yòu màncháng de yuǎnxíng

Those unfamiliar travelers are singing that song
那些陌生的旅人唱着那首歌
nàxiē mòshēng de lǚrén chàngzhe nà shǒu gē
Softly saying there is always someone waiting for me
轻声说总有人在等我
qīngshēng shuō zǒng yǒurén zài děng wǒ

The world's illuminated windows are a display of fireworks
人间照亮的窗是一场烟火
rénjiān zhàoliàng de chuāng shì yī chǎng yānhuǒ
The wishes made in their blooming, you have heard them all before
绽放中许的愿你都曾听过
zhànfàng zhōng xǔ de yuàn nǐ dōu céng tīngguò
Those joys and sorrows, bitters and griefs, have turned into creases
那些喜乐苦悲化成了皱褶
nàxiē xǐlè kǔ bēi huà chéngle zhòuzhé
Making peace with the long years in quiet simplicity
与漫长的岁月平淡里讲和
yǔ màncháng de suìyuè píngdàn lǐ jiǎnghé

Passing through this human world, to see a display of fireworks
路过这人间 看一场烟火
lùguò zhè rénjiān kàn yī chǎng yānhuǒ
