Lyrics and translation 張偉文 - 在水一方

在水一方

綠草蒼蒼 白霧茫茫
有位佳人 在水一方

我願逆流而上
依偎在她身旁
無奈前有險灘
道路又遠又長

我願順流而下
找尋她的方向
卻見依稀彷彿
她在水的中央

綠草萋萋 白霧迷離
有位佳人 靠水而居

我願逆流而上
與她輕言細語
無奈前有險灘
道路曲折無已

我願順流而下
找尋她的蹤跡
卻見彷彿依稀
她在水中佇立

On the Other Side of the Water

The grass is green, the mist is white
My beloved is on the other side of the water

I'd like to swim against the current
To be by your side
But there are dangerous rapids ahead
And the path is long and arduous

I'd like to float downstream
To find your direction
But I only see a hazy figure
In the middle of the water

The grass is lush, the mist is hazy
My beloved lives by the water

I'd like to swim against the current
To whisper sweet nothings to you
But there are dangerous rapids ahead
The path is winding and endless

I'd like to float downstream
To find your trace
But I only see a hazy figure
Standing in the water
