側田 - 走音

不懂得講笑
bat dung dak gong siu
do not know how to joke
去氹你開心
heoi tam nei hoi sam
to flatter you happy
不懂得交際
bat dung dak gaau zai
do not know how to interact
暗裡卻走近
am leoi koek zau gan
secretly while approach
靠作曲討好你
kaau zok kuk tou hou nei
rely on composition to win your favor
流行曲深得你心
lau hang kuk sam dak nei sam
popular music deeply gets your heart
讓你聽到了
joeng nei teng dou liu
let you hear
可否當上我的知音
ho fau dong soeng liu ngo dik zi jam
possible or not to regard as my close friend

寫首歌給你
se sau go kap nei
write a song for you
說愛你一生
syut oi nei jat sang
to say love you a lifetime
未令你感動
mei ling nei gam dung
not yet make you feel touched
嫌我未夠流行
jim ngo mei gau lau hang
shun me not yet popular enough
彈琴人是我
taan kam jan si ngo
person who plays piano is me
原諒我
jyun loeng ngo
forgive me
動作　未夠吸引
dung zok mei gau kap jan
movement not yet attractive enough
旋律怎麼優美
syun leot zam mo jau mei
melody however elegant
也不窩心
jaa bat wo sam
also not heart-warming

*循例地拍掌
ceon lai dei paak zoeng
customarily applaud
掌聲太牽強
zoeng seng taai hin koeng
applause too far-fetched
回頭只見到你
wui tau zi gin dou nei
turn around only see you
對著電話聽與講*
deoi zoek din waa teng jyu gong
towards phone listen and speak
**有悶場　還是太忙
jau mun coeng waan si taai mong
it is a boring show or too busy
何以並沒有一起合唱**
ho ji bing mut jau jat hei hap coeng
why did not join in to sing together
***曲終一剎那***
kuk zung jat saat naa
music ends for a split second
人群內的你不知去向
jan kwan noi dik nei bat zi heoi hoeng
within the crowd your whereabouts unknown

這首歌講到我太過天真
ze sau go gong dou ngo taai gwo tin zan
this song say I am too naïve
歌中的主角
go zung dik zyu gok
the song's protagonist
哪試過走近
naa si gwo zau gan
who tried to approach
唱遍高低起跌
coeng pin gou dai hei dit
sang through highs lows ups downs
而情感偏偏走音
ji cing gam pin pin zau jam
and emotions unfortunately off-key
是我只懂唱
si ngo zi dung coeng
yes I only know to sing
不騷不癢
bat sou bat joeng
not disturb not stimulate
誰人著緊
seoi jan zoek gan
which person is concerned

收音機廣播播了我的歌
sau jam gei gwong bo bo liu ngo dik go
the radio program broadcasts my song
但是這曲目
daan si ze kuk muk
but this piece of music
你可細心聽過
nei ho sai sam teng gwo
have you carefully listened to
旁人談論我
pong jan taam leon ngo
bystanders discuss me
其實更難過
kei sat gang naan gwo
actually even sadder
是我的錯
si ngo dik co
is my fault
我愛的不喜愛
ngo oi dik bat hei oi
my loved one does not like
聽我的歌
teng ngo dik go
to listen to my song

*循例地拍掌
掌聲太牽強
回頭只見到你
對著電話聽與講*
**有悶場　還是太忙
何以並沒有一起合唱**
很想聽你唱
han soeng teng nei sing
really want to hear you sing

*循例地拍掌
掌聲太牽強
回頭只見到你
對著電話聽與講*
即使我拿下金獎
zik si ngo naa haa gam soeng
even if I capture a gold award
而你納悶到擺出睡相
ji nei naap mun dou baai ceot seoi soeng
and you are perplexed to exhibit a sleepy look
***曲終一剎那***
才明白跟你
coi ming baak gan nei
only then understand with you
相當勉強
soeng dong min koeng
considerably forced
