Lyrics and translation 周國賢 - 塵世美

塵世美

趕快記錄生命的美好
延後發現世界多糟糕
無用太快了悟這百態
上千個問號某天才存入腦
用那水筆蘸起雲霞染於畫布

萬事萬物沒變好 誰料一秒已長高
望你不惜一切抱著丹青多麼美好
願望寄望沒細數 遺傳理念也沒再三探討
望你揮筆之際彷彿拯救著國土

還好 看青天和綠草
這刻得你望到
抱擁你畫過長夜清早
永不要為予父母親自傲
亦不要獻技尋覓他人仰慕
童話故事跌入你幻想裡亂舞
讓天國少艾深海妖怪畫滿你畫簿

赤子心才是寶
以天真筆法繪出這生初稿
莫怨坊間所欠沉默地填補
光影色彩雖然未夠好
用你視角塗畫出新世界美麗在前途
塵世終於都有天安好

萬事萬物沒變好 誰料一秒已長高
望你不惜一切抱著丹青多麼美好
願望寄望沒細數 遺傳理念也沒再三探討
望你揮筆之際彷彿拯救著國土

還好 看青天和綠草
這刻得你望到
抱擁你畫過長夜清早
永不要為予父母親自傲
亦不要獻技尋覓他人仰慕
童話故事跌入你幻想裡亂舞
讓整個宇宙閃閃星宿畫滿你畫簿

赤子心才是寶
以天真筆法繪出這生初稿
莫怨坊間所欠沉默地填補
光影色彩雖然未夠好
用你視角塗畫出新世界美麗在前途
塵世終於都有天安好

仰首烏雲默禱
那漆黑中有七彩快要出土
用你一點一線誠實地重組
今天即使光明未見到
用你直覺描畫出新世界美麗在前途
塵世終於洇染出安好 喔
塵世終於可擦走懊惱

喔 噠啦噠 喔
噠啦噠 喔 喔喔

The Beauty of the Mortal World

Hurry and capture the beauty of life
Before it's too late and you see how awful the world is
No need to rush to understand this world's many faces
Thousands of questions will fill your mind one day
Use that pen to dip into the clouds and paint on the canvas

Nothing has changed for the better, but you've grown taller in a second
I hope you'll hold onto that paintbrush for dear life, it's so beautiful
Your hopes and dreams are countless, and your inherited values haven't been fully explored
I hope that when you paint, it feels like you're saving the world

It's okay to look at the blue sky and the green grass
This moment is all yours
I embrace the long nights and early mornings you've painted
Never be arrogant because of your parents
And don't show off your skills to seek admiration from others
Let fairy tales and sea monsters dance in your imagination
Fill your sketchbook with heavenly maidens and sea monsters

An innocent heart is a treasure
Use your naive brushstrokes to paint the first draft of your life
Don't complain about what the world owes you, but quietly fill in the gaps
The light and colors may not be perfect
Use your perspective to paint a new world, with beauty in your future
One day, the mortal world will finally be at peace

Nothing has changed for the better, but you've grown taller in a second
I hope you'll hold onto that paintbrush for dear life, it's so beautiful
Your hopes and dreams are countless, and your inherited values haven't been fully explored
I hope that when you paint, it feels like you're saving the world

It's okay to look at the blue sky and the green grass
This moment is all yours
I embrace the long nights and early mornings you've painted
Never be arrogant because of your parents
And don't show off your skills to seek admiration from others
Let fairy tales and sea monsters dance in your imagination
Fill your sketchbook with every star in the universe

An innocent heart is a treasure
Use your naive brushstrokes to paint the first draft of your life
Don't complain about what the world owes you, but quietly fill in the gaps
The light and colors may not be perfect
Use your perspective to paint a new world, with beauty in your future
One day, the mortal world will finally be at peace

As I gaze up at the dark clouds and pray
I see the colors of the rainbow hidden within the darkness
Use your strokes and lines to recreate the world
Even if the light is not visible today
Use your intuition to paint a new world, with beauty in your future
One day, the mortal world will be filled with peace
One day, the mortal world will be free from sorrow

Oh da-la-da oh
Da-la-da oh oh-oh
