★ 你还不来我怎敢老去 ★

Actually, I'm old

其实我已经老了

That I've to let the small tree in front of the door

For me shed the leaves off

我老得让门前的那棵小树替我掉叶子

I'm too old as to shell off a layer of earth

我老得掉了一层土

And another layer of earth once more

又掉了一层土

Seeing these layers of earth

看到这些土

I know that going out is the bonfire on my chest reserved for you

我就知道，过去胸膛上给你预留的篝火快要熄灭了

And departing is the strength kept for you in my arm

手臂上给你预留的力量快要离开了

As far as my eyes, tardy and erratic

及至双眼，开始看什么都是缓慢的

They start to see everything

飘忽不定的

Actually, I'm very old

其实我已经很老了

For the latest short span of my life

及至这后来的一小段时光

I just keep on asking the small tree in front of the door

For me to shed the last leaf

我只是继续让门前的那棵小树替我掉下最后一片叶子

While the world is changing and time is flying

世易时移处

Why I say that you don't come, I'm dare not to grow old

'Cause when I'm alone

我之所以说你不来，我不敢老去

是没人的时候

I do still cherish a very slim hope that you also think so

我非常渺茫地希望，你也在这么想
