Lyrics and translation 李克勤 - 開學禮

開學禮

同學各位 找個位 這是你的開學禮
望前看 想像戴著四方帽時多美麗
先交過難忘學費 先不會來年失禮
明天總會是個新學期 終生制

總要學 無論代價多重 學會的 多少幫補自信
背過書 何時被考起總有些用 至少你知道什麼不懂

大概只得戀愛是 沒標準的教科書
必須靠人不斷試 學傳情達意 二人共處 才夠真摯

同學各位 找個位 這是你的開學禮
若然你生活有時過得苦亦不作弊
荊棘裡完成學位 操守卻仍然高貴
學懂的會是你畢業時 的優勢

歷遍艱辛不作弊 受苦也練成造詣
因此說人生在世 運程難預計
但能入世 培養聰慧

同學各位 找個位 這是你的開學禮
望前看 想像戴著四方帽時多美麗
先交過難忘學費 先不會來年失禮
明天總會是個新學期 終生制

同學各位 找個位 這是你的開學禮
望前看 想像戴著四方帽時多美麗
先交過難忘學費 先不會來年失禮
明天總會是個新學期 終生制

Opening Ceremony

Classmates, find a seat, this is your opening ceremony
Look ahead, imagine how beautiful you'll be when you wear a mortarboard
First pay an unforgettable tuition, so you won't fail next year
Tomorrow will always be a new semester, for life

You must learn, no matter the cost, what you learn will help your confidence
Memorize the books, when you're tested on them, it will be useful, at least you'll know what you don't know

Perhaps only love is a subject with no standard textbook
You have to keep trying, learn how to convey your feelings, and be sincere when you're together

Classmates, find a seat, this is your opening ceremony
Even if your life is sometimes bitter, don't cheat
Earn your degree among the thorns, and your integrity will still be noble
What you learn will be your advantage when you graduate

Go through hardships and don't cheat, suffering can also make you accomplished
Therefore, it's hard to predict your destiny in life
But you can gain wisdom by experiencing the world

Classmates, find a seat, this is your opening ceremony
Look ahead, imagine how beautiful you'll be when you wear a mortarboard
First pay an unforgettable tuition, so you won't fail next year
Tomorrow will always be a new semester, for life

Classmates, find a seat, this is your opening ceremony
Look ahead, imagine how beautiful you'll be when you wear a mortarboard
First pay an unforgettable tuition, so you won't fail next year
Tomorrow will always be a new semester, for life
