小城大事 [Little city, big event] - Miriam Yeung 楊千嬅 {Cantonese 04}

The lyrics of the song are rather sad. It is about a pair of couple, they love each other so much, but one day the man lost his memory and forgot everything about his past, even his fiancée. Then he started a new relationship with another woman. Without the memory of his past, he resists his fiancée, but his fiancée still love him deeply. Knowing that nothing could be done, his fiancée accepted that he will not return to her, but she wishes that he could remember his feeling toward her even though he got no memory of her
青春彷彿因我愛你開始
cheng cheun fong fat yan ngo oi nei hoi chi
youth seemingly started because of me loving you


但卻令我看破愛這個字
daan keuk ling ngo hon po oi je go ji
but it caused me to see pass the word of love


自你患上失憶
ji nei waan seung sat yik
you have gotten amnesia


便是我扭轉命數的事
bin si ngo nau jyun meng sou dik si
this matter is what changed my life story


只因當失憶症發作加深
ji yan dong sat yik jing faat jok ga sam
only because of when amnesia gotten worse


沒記住我但卻另有更新密運
mut gei jyu ngo daan keuk ling yau gang san mat wan
you do not remember me but have found a new love


像狐狸精般 並未允許我步近
jeung wu lei jing bun bing mei wan heui ngo bou gan
like a seductress never allowing me to get near
無回憶的餘生 忘掉往日情人
mou wui yik dik yu saang mong diu wong yat ching yan
not having memory of that life forgetting about your old lover


卻又記住移情別愛的命運
keuk yau gei jyu yi ching bit oi dik meng wan
but only remembering your life with your new love


無回憶的男人 就當偷厄與瞞騙
mou wui yik dik naam yan jau dong tau ak yu mun pin
man without memory as if stealing difficultly and deceiving


抱抱我不過份
pou pou ngo bat gwo fan
embracing me is not too much 


吻下來 豁出去 這吻別似覆水
man ha loi kut cheut heui je man bit chi fuk seui
kiss down here open up this goodbye kiss is like recovering water


再來也許要天上團聚
joi loi ya heui yiu tin seung tyun jeui
coming again perhaps we need to reunite in heaven


再回頭 你不許 如曾經不登對
joi wui tau nei bat heui yu chang ging bat dang deui
looking back again you do not permit as if in the past we did not match


你何以雙眼好像流淚
nei ho yi seung ngaan hou jeung lau leui
why do your eyes seem like they are crying 
彼此追憶不怕愛要終止
bei chi jeui yik bat pa oi yiu jung ji
one another recollecting not afraid that love needs to end


但我大概上世做過太多壞事
daan ngo daai koi seung sai jou gwo taai do waai si
but I probably did too many bad things in my former life


能從頭開始 跪在教堂說願意
nang chung tau hoi chi gwai joi gaau tong syut yun yi
can we start again kneel in the church and say I do
娛樂行的人影 還在繼續繁榮
yu lok haang dik yan ying waan joi gai juk faan wing
entertaining shadows are still continuing to prosper


我在算著甜言蜜語的壽命
ngo joi syun jeuk tim yin mat yu dik sau meng
I am still living the life of sweet words and speech


人造的蠢衛星 沒探測出我們已
yan jou dik cheun wai sing mut taam chak cheut ngo mun yi
the stupid man-made satellite have not probe that we already


已再見不再認
yi joi gin bat joi ying
already said goodbye no longer accepting


吻下來 豁出去 這吻別似覆水
man ha loi kut cheut heui je man bit chi fuk seui
kiss down here open up this goodbye kiss is like recovering water


再來也許要天上團聚
joi loi ya heui yiu tin seung tyun jeui
coming again perhaps we need to reunite in heaven 


我下來 你出去 講再會也心虛
ngo ha loi nei cheut heui gong joi wui ya sam heui
I come down you go out saying see you soon is also lacking confidence


我還記得到天上團聚
ngo waan gei dak dou tin seung tyun jeui
I still remember having to reunite in heaven


吻下來 豁出去 從前多麼登對
man ha loi kut cheut heui chung chin do mo dang deui
kiss down here open up how much we matched in the past


你何以雙眼好像流淚
nei ho yi seung ngaan hou jeung lau leui
why do your eyes seem like they are crying 


每年這天記得再流淚mui nin je tin gei dak joi lau leuieach year this day remember to cry again

  1. this interpretation is quite romantic.
    but another interpretation is a death note from a girl. Her boyfriend didn't has amnesia. He just fell in love with someone else and broke up with her. But she loves him so much. She would rather end her life instead of seeing him to be with others. you can tell from some lyrics like "我下來 你出去 講再會也心虛" "我還記得到天上團聚"
    "每年這天記得再流淚".
    In my opinion , it is more like a death note.
    So i agree that this is a sad song. Everyone has his/her own interpretation. Mine might not be right. Just wanna share.
