[Music/lyrics] 知足 (Contentment) - by 五月天Mayday (For Stacey)

知足 (Contentment) - by Mayday (Taiwanese band). 

  

 

作詞：阿信

作曲：阿信 (A-Shin, from Mayday - Taiwanese band) 

怎麼去擁有 一道彩虹 

How do you own a rainbow?

怎麼去擁抱 一夏天的風

How do you embrace a summer's breeze? 

天上的星星 笑地上的人

Stars above laughs at people on the ground 

總是不能懂 不能覺得足夠

They can never understand, they can never feel content.  

如果我愛上 你的笑容

If I fell in love with your smile 

要怎麼收藏 要怎麼擁有

How do I collect such beauty, how do I own it? 

如果你快樂 不是為我

But if the reason of your happiness is not because of me,  

會不會放手 其實才是擁有

then true love is about whether or not I can let you go. 

當一陣風吹來 風箏飛上天空

When the wind blows, the kite flies into the sky  

為了你而祈禱 而祝福 而感動

For you, I'll pray, give you blessings and feel touched,  

終於你身影 消失在 人海盡頭

finally, when your silhouette fades into the endless crowd, 

才發現 笑著哭 最痛

I'll realize, it hurts the most to smile with tears..

那年你和我 那個山丘

That year, you and me and that hill, 

那樣的唱著 那一年的歌

We've sang like that, that year's song, 

那樣的回憶 那麼足夠

that memory was so enough,  

足夠我天天 都品嚐著寂寞

enough that it made me content, to withstand loneliness  everyday. 

當一陣風吹來 風箏飛上天空

When the wind blows, the kite flies into the sky  

為了你而祈禱 而祝福 而感動

For you, I'll pray, give you blessings and feel touched,  

終於你身影 消失在 人海盡頭

in the end, when your silhouette fades into the endless crowd, 

才發現 笑著哭 最痛

I'll realize, it hurts the most to smile with tears..

如果我愛上 你的笑容

If I fell in love with your smile 

要怎麼收藏 要怎麼擁有

How do I collect such beauty, how do I own it? 

如果你快樂 不是為我

But if your happiness is not because of me,  

會不會放手 其實才是擁有

whether or not I can let you go defines the true meaning of "having". 

知足的快樂 叫我忍受心痛 

The happiness of being content has asked me to endure heartache. 

知足的快樂 叫我忍受心痛

The happiness of being content has asked me to endure heartache.
