葉蒨文 - 情人知己

時光飄過　回頭又見　長夜細訴別時情
si gwong piu gwo wui tau jau gin coeng je sai sou bit si cing
time drifted by looking back and see long night small talk forgetting time and love
還幸友愛不減半點　一聲兩聲總也是心聲
waan hang jau oi bat gaam bun dim jat sing loeng sing zung jaa si sam seng
yet lucky friendly affection does reduce by half a bit one sound two sound always also are thoughts
誰可想到　誰能預算　其實你對我癡情
seoi ho soeng dou seoi nang jyu syun kei sat nei deoi ngo ci cing
who could have thought who could forecast actually you are infatuated with me
藏在暗裡已多年　在這天終於要說一遍
cong zoi am leoi ji do nin zoi ze tin zung jyu jiu syut jat pin
hidden secretly already many years on this day finally want to say it one time

*我怎麼可狠心的欺騙　但也不忍跟你絕情
ngo zam mo ho han sam dik hei pin daan jaa bat jan gan nei zyut cing
how can I callously deceive but also not endure to be heartless with you
我匆匆的再喝一杯　沒法清醒作決定*
ngo cung cung dik zoi hot jat bui mut faat cing sing zok kyut ding
I hurriedly drank another cup again not able to sober up to decide

**難怪曾說出不能成為知己的
naan gwaai cang syut ceot bat nang sing wai zi gei dik
no wonder once uttered cannot become friends
怎麼可能相戀　這晚我認真聽見
zam mo ho nang soeng lyun ze maan ngo jing zan teng gin
how can possibly love each other this night I seriously heard
而我和你已經能成為知己
ji ngo wo nei ji ging nang sing wai si gei
and you and me already became friends
終可不可能相戀　我卻怕未可以預見**
zung ho bat ho nang soeng lyun ngo koek paa mei ho ji jyu gin
finally can or cannot love each other I am still afraid I cannot foresee

***友情如仍未變　最終雙方都會醒
jau cing jyu jing mei bin zeoi zung soeng fong dou wui sing
friendship as if still not changed finally both parties also will wake up
到那一天將必聽到　知己笑聲到永遠***
dou naa jat tin zoeng bit teng dou zi hei siu seng dou wing jyun
on that one day will surely hear a close friend's laughter until forever

如果可以回頭避免　也許彼此好過點
jyu gwo ho ji wui tau bei min jaa heoi bei ci hou dwo dim
if one could look back to avoid perhaps each other would have an easier time
無奈看你此刻眼睛　彷彿我不應拒絕邀請
mou noi hon nei ci hak ngaan zing fong fat ngo bat jing keoi zyut jiu cing
helplessly looking at your eyes at this moment as if I should not decline the invite
誰知應要如何辨證　才是友愛與癡情
seoi zi jing jiu jyu ho bin zing coi si jau oi jyu ci cing
who knows how one should have investigated only then friendly affection and infatuation
唯害怕愛火燒完　現有的知己已再不見
wai hoi paa oi fo siu jyun jin jau dik zi gei zoi bat gin
only afraid love's fire burns out currently existing close friend is already not seeing again

*我怎麼可狠心的欺騙　但也不忍跟你絕情
我匆匆的再喝一杯　沒法清醒作決定*

**難怪曾說出不能成為知己的
怎麼可能相戀　這晚我認真聽見
而我和你已經能成為知己
終可不可能相戀　我卻怕未可以預見**

**難怪曾說出不能成為知己的
怎麼可能相戀　這晚我認真聽見
而我和你已經能成為知己
終可不可能相戀　我卻怕未可以預見**

***友情如仍未變　最終雙方都會醒
到那一天將必聽到　知己笑聲到永遠***
