Lyrics and translation Eason Chan - 時代曲

時代曲

就散席了 人客急將美酒喝掉
趕於舞曲奏盡前離坐
是我夜了吧 最後這分鐘到場
待熱情盡過 方看到場內燦爛燈火
好想唱一闕歌 叫你認清楚我
我也曾到來慶賀
好想唱一闕歌 見證日子怎過
哪個時勢能沒有歌
若問你會如何 你會罵我別傻
剩下光境不多
但是你會如何 我也沒有耐何
盼你亦賞面安坐
替我用掌聲和唱著這歌
就散席了 人客心知箇中奧妙
將講到一半話題完掉
若注定這樣 故事尾聲方進場
別人話遲極了 願時代仍為我留了坐
只想唱一闕歌 叫你認清楚我
我也曾到來慶賀
只想唱一闕歌 一首淒美的讚歌
派對完結前為你寫的歌
若問你會如何 你會罵我別傻
剩下光境不多
但是你會如何 我也沒有耐何
盼你耐心的安坐 怕以後掌聲沒夠是晚多
若問那裡不妥 你會罵我別傻
剩下光境不多 別寄望太多
日後我會如何 我也沒有耐何
卻怕在今晚之後 不知有誰來迫我
轉唱另一些歌

Era Song

The party is over, the guests are hastily finishing their drinks
Rushing to leave before the dance music ends
I'm the last to arrive, it's already late at night
When the excitement has passed, I finally see the bright lights inside
I want to sing a song, for you to recognize me
I was here to celebrate
I want to sing a song, to witness how the days have passed
What era could be without a song?
If you ask me how you'll react, you'll tell me not to be silly
There's not much time left
But how you'll react, I have no control over
I hope you'll sit down and listen
Use your applause and sing this song with me
The party is over, the guests know the secret
To finish the conversation that was only half told
If it's destined to be like this, entering at the end of the story
It's too late for others to speak, I hope this era has saved a seat for me
I just want to sing a song, for you to recognize me
I was here to celebrate
I just want to sing a song, a beautiful elegy
A song I wrote for you before the party ended
If you ask me how you'll react, you'll tell me not to be silly
There's not much time left
But how you'll react, I have no control over
I hope you'll sit patiently, in case there's not enough applause later
If you ask what's wrong, you'll tell me not to be silly
There's not much time left, don't expect too much
How I'll be in the future, I have no control over
But I'm afraid that after tonight, someone will force me
To sing other songs
