I recently bought Triumph in the Skies series.
There was a promotion, and I know if I don't get it now, it will forever be unavailable once it's out of stock.
Listened to the theme song again along with the opening music video.
Then I remember liking the song.
The first reason is one I don't want to make public, and the second,
because the lyrics felt like a man sincerely confessing his love for the one that he can no longer be with anymore. It's sad, and hopeful.
So I feel the extreme need to translate it... again. Maybe in another perspective.
愛上了 看見你 如何不懂謙卑
去講心中理想 不會俗氣
猶如看得見晨曦 才能歡天喜地
He fell in love with how she could speak of her dreams ambitiously. It was as though happiness could exist only with the sight of dawn.
抱著你 我每次 回來多少驚喜
也許一生太短 陪著你
情感有若行李 仍然沉重待我整理
"I get pleasant surprises every single time I hold you when I'm back.. perhaps life is too short, and to be with you ...." To him, his feelings were like luggage, still waiting to be organized.
天氣不似預期 但要走 總要飛
道別不可再等你 不管有沒有機
給我體貼入微 但你手 如明日便要遠離
願你可以 留下共我曾愉快的憶記
當世事再沒完美 可遠在歲月如歌中找你
"The weather isn't as forecasted.. but I have to go, I need to fly,"
Whether or not there's a chance, he can no longer wait for a farewell.
"Give me your understanding - but your hand ..... if you need to leave tomorrow,
I hope you can let the happy memories you've had with me remain..
so that when everything is no longer perfect,
I can search for you in the far away songs of our years,"
再見了 背向你 回頭多少傷悲
也許不必再講 所有道理
何時放鬆我自己 才能花天酒地
"Goodbye," his back towards her. How much sorrow would turning around cause?
Perhaps there's not need to speak of any more logic..
"When can I relax myself - and finally have some fun?"
抱著你 我說過 如何一起高飛
這天只想帶走 還是你
Holding her, he explained how they could fly up high together..
Up until today, the one he wants to take away is still her.
如重溫往日郵寄 但會否疲倦了嬉戲
If past letters were reminisced, would it wear the act down?

Stripped Thoroughly
when it broke, you regretted and turned back
so that there will be nothing more in the future
when I worked, slept, prayed, enjoyed so purposefully to continue every day
just by seeing that things had loosen up you were willing to meet up again
the one who wanted to run away from all these
and the one driven to the end of the world
only when breathing was hard did I realized that I had turned into a puppet
the one controlling all, who was it?
I paced back and forth, just waiting for you to be taken
the silk at that moment will not be measured for the rest of my life
but I dragged my shell along
and realized that my journey for happiness was still on your shoulders
or was the string up for me to cut
so that the broken kite would finally fly up to heaven
these years as I watched you clutch to the fact that he would appear
what reason do I have to continue being entangled with you
let me find a soulmate, find a place that I may leave your footprint to move on
it was the back you turned that drove me to step forward
if a strand of silk may guide me in my lost path
that strand of silk felt like it was in my throat, like it was itching
and to ensure that you feel secure I continued smiling, although I wanted very hard to spit it out
I just hope that you'll find a good partner, and I will heal
I never realized that the one holding me back will not fulfill the promise
my mind, filled with strands of silk, thought so much till it turned white but was reluctant to fall
feelings controlled by you, which one of us would be willing to fly, entangled towards paradise
and then my shell had broken, as it realizes that desires were difficult to eliminate because we are reluctant to give them up
is it because love by default is as such that it holds someone back
even if both you and I had once held hands, the rope tying us together has disappeared

Because of love
presenting to you a CD from the past
listen to the love we had back then
because sometimes I'd forget
that I still do love you
unable to sing such a song again
listening to it makes me shy away
even though I'd often forget
that I'm still in love with you
because of love, there is resilience
therefore everything seemingly has a happy appearance
because of love, there is growth
but even so, I could still go crazy for you at any time
because of love, how can there be sorrow
therefore we are still what we are back then
because of love, that place
will always have hearts
wandering around
