梅艷芳 - 似是故人來

同是過路同做過夢　本應是一對
tung si gwo lou tung jou gwo mung bun ying si yat deui
together walking together dreaming originally we ought to be a pair
人在少年夢中　不覺醒後要歸去
yan joi siu nin mung jung bat gok sing hau yiu gwai heui
the body is dreaming of youth after unconsciously waking I need to return back
三餐一宿也共一雙　到底會是誰
saam chaan yat suk ya gung yat seung dou dai wui si seui
three meals in one place also together one pair finally who will it be
但凡未得到但凡是過去　總是最登對
daan faan mei dak dou daan faan si gwo heui jung si jeui dang deui
yet ordinary has not been obtained yet ordinary is the past we always will be the best pair

台下你望台上我做　你想做的戲
toi ha nei mong toi seung ngo jou nei seung jou dik hei
you watch from off the stage while on the stage I perform the play you want
前事故人忘憂的你　可曾記得起
chin si gu yan mong yau dik nei ho chang gei dak hei
former matters of familiar people forgetting your worries yet have you ever remembered
歡喜傷悲老病生死　說不上傳奇
fun hei seung bei lou beng saang sei syut bat seung chyun kei
joy sadness old illness life death does not count as being legendary
恨台上卿卿或台下我我　不是我跟你
han toi seung hing hing waak toi ha ngo ngo bat si ngo gan nei hate being on stage or off stage flirting when it is not you and me

*俗塵渺渺天意茫茫　將你共我分開
juk chan miu miu tin yi mong mong jeung nei gung ngo fan hoi
vulgar, remote dust the sky's boundless wishes will seperate you and me
斷腸字點點風雨聲連連　似是故人來*
dyun cheung ji dim dim fung yu sing lin lin chi si gu yan loi
dots of short and long characters, sound of wind and rain similar to a familiar person coming

何日再在何地再聚　說今夜真暖
ho yat joi joi ho dei joi jeui syut gam ye jan nyun
what day will we be here again what place will we gather at again to say tonight is really warm
無份有緣回憶不斷　生命卻苦短
mou fan yau yun wui yik bat dyun saang ming keuk fu dyun
no part in fate to have fate memories do not break life is bitter short
一種相思兩段苦戀　半生說沒完
yat jung seung si leung dyun fu lyun bun saang syut mei yun
a kind of missing two kinds of bitter love to speak for half a life is still not over
在年月深淵望明月遠遠　想像你憂怨
joi nin yut sam yun mong ming yut yun yun seung jeung nei yau yun
in the moon's deep abyss gazing at the next moon faraway imagining you confused and blaming

*俗塵渺渺天意茫茫　將你共我分開
斷腸字點點風雨聲連連　似是故人來*

留下你或留下我　在世間上總老
lau ha nei waak lau ha ngo joi sai gaan seung jung lou
leave you behind or leave me behind while on life's time period one will always age
離別以前未知相對　當日那麼好
lei bit yi chin mei ji seung deui dong yat na mo hou
when seperating we did not know how good it was to be together before
執子之手卻又分手　愛得有還無
jap ji ji sau keuk yau fan sau oi dak yau waan mou
holding your hand yet we again break up to love has no return
**十年後雙雙萬年後對對　只恨看不到**
sap nin hau seung seung maan nin hau deui deui ji han hon bat dou
ten years later we are a pair ten thousand years later we a couple only hate that we cannot see it

**十年後雙雙萬年後對對　只恨看不到**
