藕斷絲連 [Root Broken Thread Remains] - Andy Lau 劉德華 {Cantonese}

With the past, the only thing left is an old face
That old appearance never the less will naturally change with time
The hollowness in my heart
has left a bit of joy at a distant place
Enstrangled unceasingly for half a lifetime
can only blame myself for letting the opportunity escaped
To forget then again remember
only causes the grief to increase

[Chorus]
The more one's lonely, the more one reminisces
I think of revisiting the past, but quickly abandon the idea
These trembling, restless hands of mine
dully extinguished the cigarette
If reunited again one day
I'm confince that again there will be grievances and obsession
Who'd want the root to break
when it is the thread that holds together this love?

[Chorus 2]
A loud cry in the air
represents my desolation
In the violet rain, a hug
makes my heart more confused
Reality is difficult to anticipate
I'd ratehr she gives up the past's fragments
Even if we meet again
and even if sparks fly again
I will pretend to not be attached (pretend not to miss her)

Chorus
Chorus 2

雨過天陰 (Rain Has Passed) - Kay Tse 謝安琪 {Cantonese}

Meeting you now feels like an electric shock .
A few years later, I bumped into you
at a close friend's wedding banquet
just like the face on the day of the Korean drama.
Today, it seems familiar but uneasy and friendly.
It's especially weird.
After chatting, I feel at a loss and my hands are trembling

[Chorus]
After the heavy rain, it will be sunny
It’s just the same old empty words. It’s just empty talk. 

It’s meant to make you ignore each other since the last quarrel.
The relationship has been put on the back burner.
If the story of that day repeats itself, you may be lucky
to be annoyed and depressed. 

We have organized a wedding banquet
earlier. 

I want to speak but there is a lot of inconvenience and I am afraid of embarrassment. 

I can’t bear to look away from each other when we are face to face . 

It’s like we are reminiscing about yesterday. 

Unfortunately, after time has passed, 

we each have our own new discoveries. 

The two of us understand each other. 

We have to disperse after the game, 

maybe we won’t meet again

Sunny days come after the heavy rain.
It’s a cliche that aims to make
you ignore each other since the last quarrel.
The relationship will quickly run aground.
If the story of that day repeats itself
and makes you angry and calm, 

you may be lucky enough to have organized a wedding feast earlier. 

There is no waiting for the sun to shine after the rain. 

The fire in my heart has not been extinguished. 

I have said goodbye. 

Looking back at that day, the threads that cannot be returned have been intertwined. 

I am so shy today. If the story of that day repeats itself , let’s lower our spirits for the time being . 

You may be lucky enough to share this memory in your later years.

男人信什麼 [What does a man believe?] - Janice Vidal 衛蘭 {Cantonese}

Even if we don’t see each other again, we can’t take a step back
Doesn't he know my temper? 
It doesn't matter who is right or wrong.
I have no responsibility to be good to him, 
I have no worries and I am too lazy to worry.
I miss wrestling and bickering without getting bored, and worry only when I don’t have worries.

If you don't ask for peace on your own, 

even if you know you're wrong, 

you can't help but be resigned to it.

Whoever finds him first can say anything.

Why is it so difficult to deceive everyone? 

I want it to be easier for my lover to not be able to see through me.

In fact, I ask myself that emotions are elusive

It’s too difficult to deceive myself. 

I can’t believe it. 

Sometimes even my intentions are wrong.

It's hard to explain clearly at once whether people love or hate. 

It's hard to guarantee that I am who I am.

Even if we can't be together anymore, 

I can't abuse it, 

I'm sorry

In fact, I am willing to swallow my anger, 

but I am afraid of being looked down upon.

You can't make your partner happy, who has no taste?

In fact, I was too afraid of being abandoned by him, 

so I encouraged me to try my best.

How difficult is it to deceive everyone? 

I want to feel better. 

I want to appear that I am not afraid of anyone.

No need to care too much about what he can give me

It’s too difficult to deceive myself. I can’t believe it. 

It’s as if I haven’t exposed myself.

What else can you hide in front of your lover? 

What do men want to believe?

If you treat me sincerely, who can bear to see through me?

七里香 [Common Jasmine Orange] - Jay Chou 周杰倫 {Mandarin}

 

The sparrow outside the window

Has a big mouth on the wire pole

You said this sentence

Has very much the feeling of summer

The pencil in my hand

Moves back and forth on the paper

I use a few lines of words to describe who you are to me

 

The taste of sanma

The cat and you both want to understand

The fragrance of first love is retrieved by us just like this

That warm sunshine

Is like the just picked bright strawberry

You say you are not willing to eat this kind of feeling

 

Rain falls for the whole night

My love overflows like the rain

Leaves fall in the courtyard

With my thoughts one thick pile

A few words of gossip

There is no way it can cool off my passion

You appear in every page of my poem

 

Rain falls for the whole night

My love overflows like the rain

The butterfly on the windowsill

Is like the beautiful chapters fluttering about in the poem

I then write

I write I always love you into the end of the poem

You are the only understanding I want

 

That which is full of ears of the rice plant

Blessed this season

And your cheek is like the thoroughly ripe tomato in the field

You suddenly say to me

The name of the Common Jasmin Orange is very beautiful

Yet this moment I only wanted to kiss your stubborn lips

 

Rain falls for the whole night

My love overflows like the rain

Leaves fall in the courtyard

With my thoughts one thick pile

A few words of gossip

There is no way it can cool off my passion

You appear in every page of my poem

 

Rain falls for the whole night

My love overflows like the rain

Leaves fall in the courtyard

With my thoughts one thick pile

A few words of gossip

There is no way it can cool off my passion

You appear in every page of my poem

 

Rain falls for the whole night

My love overflows like the rain

The butterfly on the windowsill

Is like the beautiful chapters fluttering about in the poem

I then write

I write I always love you into the end of the poem

You are the only understanding I want

開學禮 [School Opening Ceremony] - Hacken Lee 李克勤 {Cantonese}

Every student, finding one another; this is your school opening ceremony
Looking forward, and imagine how beautiful to wear a graduation cap
First pay up in memorable lessons, in hopes to mature respectfully next year
Tomorrow will always be a new semester, semester for life
Keep learning, no matter the cost
What you've learnt, at least empowers your confidence
Knowledge you recited, might comes in handy in challenges one day
At least you know what you don't understand
 
Guess love is the only subject, that has no standardized textbooks
It takes human's endless practice; learning to express and receive love
Keeping each other company, and there comes authenticity
 
Every student, finding one another; this is your school opening ceremony
If you find hardship, and still chooses not to cheat in life
In thorning difficulties, still finishing education; but holding morals elegantly too
Your lessons learnt would be of good aids when you graduate
 
Guess love is the only subject, that has no standardized textbooks
It takes human's endless practice; learning to express and receive love
Keeping each other company, and there comes authenticity
 
Never defrauding in thousands of hardships, sufferings forges virtues
Therefore it's said that in human lives, fate is unpredictable
But it matures you, and nurtures your wit
 
Every student, finding one another; this is your school opening ceremony
Looking forward, and imagine how beautiful to wear a graduation cap
First pay up in memorable lessons, in hopes to mature respectfully next year
Tomorrow will always be a new semester, semester for life
 
Every student, finding one another; this is your school opening ceremony
Looking forward, and imagine how beautiful to wear a graduation cap
First pay up in memorable lessons, in hopes to mature respectfully next year
Tomorrow will always be a new semester, semester for life

你瞞我瞞 [From The First Take] - Jason Chan 陳柏宇 {Cantonese}

The purpose of dating seems to be sharing meals
But don't ever mention the problems

If this is romance, why do I feel like we're going to break up soon
You have cried, but your eyes are sparkling more beautifully

Whose lover am I, you are always you
Smile and look at each other in silence, 
laughing is sadder than crying
No matter how happy you frown
Even if I hold you tightly
But you and I can be separated with two arms
 
Wordless kisses invade my heart
I'd rather tell myself that you're tired
If in your heart, beside me
Lives one more person
You hide it from me
I also hide it from myself, a perfect match
 
This is love, the coldness scares me
Apart from being busy recently, how much do I actually know
If you want to cry, why not cry
It's better for us to quarrel
Better than holding me without laughter
 
Wordless kisses invade my heart
I'd rather tell myself that you're tired
If in your heart, beside me
Lives one more person
You hide it from me
I also hide it from myself, a perfect match
 
What is such a lonely love
Wrap me with your fingertips, escape from me with kisses
 
Wordless kisses invade my heart
I'd rather tell myself that you're tired
If in your heart, beside me
Lives one more person
You hide it from me
I also hide it from myself, a perfect match

何故何苦何必 [Why Bother Why?] - Angela Pang 彭家麗 {Cantonese}

There is no reason to be considerate

and say goodbye. There is no need for twists and turns.

Why Bother?

It will always hurt. In the end, there is no difference. 

Come on, tell me. Please tell me directly.

Love ends early.

Why can't you be free and easy

Why bother? Why?

should I be grateful for your care? 

I'm afraid that I will be too kind

every time. The words still contain an apology.

If you want to leave, don’t embellish

it too much. Come on, come on, come on.

Say it with determination. Break up with a farewell kiss.

Be willing not to go. Ask again. Why didn’t it happen? It will always happen

If you want to leave, don’t be too bitter.

Come on, come on. Come on, say goodbye

to the pain of love.

My heart is speechless and bleeding. 

I really want this break to untie the knot of love in my heart. 

It is obvious that love will end early.

Why can't you be free and easy

Why bother? Why be grateful for your care? I'm afraid of making me too kind.

Every sentence still contains an apology.

If you want to go, don’t be too embellishment,

come on, come on, come on,

say goodbye, say goodbye, kiss,

be willing not to go, ask again, why didn’t it happen, it will always happen,

if you want to go, don’t be too bitter, come

on, come on, come on, say goodbye

love. In pain, my heart is speechless and bleeding

I really want this break to untie the knot of love in my heart.

If you want to leave, don’t embellish too much. Come

on, come on, come on. Determined

to say a word and share a passionate kiss.

I'm willing not to go and ask again if it didn't happen, why it will always happen.

If you want to leave, don't be too bitter.

Come on, come on, come on. Say goodbye

to the pain of love. My heart is speechless and bleeding.

to untie the knot of love in my heart.

If you want to leave, Don't embellish too much

come on, come on, determined

to love, it hurts,

my heart is speechless and bleeding, I really want to break up this time to untie the knot of love in my heart,

for no reason, to be considerate and say goodbye,

no need to be ironic.

每隔兩秒 [Every Two Seconds] - Bondy Chiu 趙學而

The lyrics of 趙學而's song 每隔兩秒 talk about the concept of time and love. The song starts with a metaphorical comparison of love to the movement of a watch's second hand, always in motion and constantly being thought about deeply. The singer dreams of a true love that has not yet happened during the day, still lost in thought at night, allowing his imagination to create a vivid and immersive relationship with this person.

The idea of fantasy is pondered further when he hears his love's voice, as it feels like he's in the clouds, experiencing a thrill he's never felt before. However, there is a distance between these two people, as he admits that he doesn't know how to make her happy. He ultimately concludes that he's forgotten about himself and that he can't stop thinking about her every two seconds.

 

Like a clock hand, love runs every moment,

every second, every minute, still dreaming,
dreaming at night, dreaming about true love coming
, and day not happening,

still fantasizing about how real this illusion is,
hearing your voice is like being in a white cloud
, the excitement that I can't hold back
makes me happy Love

every two seconds I think of you
but I don't know how to make your heart happy
Every two seconds I think of you
completely forgetting about yourself Love

can become real Two minutes of passionate kisses
become reality
There is a reason, two hearts just need to match each other
and then slowly the two can't help but kiss

each other deeply I'm too naive
to turn off the lights because I'm afraid of the darkness
May you give me some guidance at night and spend a lifetime together
