天才白痴夢 - Live In Hong Kong

人皆尋夢，夢裡不分西東，
片刻春風得意，未知景物矇矓。
人生如夢，夢裡輾轉吉凶，
尋樂不堪苦困，未識苦與樂同。
天造之才，皆有其用，
振翅高飛，無須在夢中。
南柯長夢，夢去不知所蹤，
醉翁他朝醒覺，是否跨鳳乘龍。
天造之才，皆有其用，
振翅高飛，無須在夢中。
何必尋夢，夢裡甘苦皆空，
勸君珍惜此際，自當欣慰無窮。
何必尋夢。

Genius and Idiot Dream - Live In Hong Kong

People all seek dreams, dreams do not differentiate between the West and the East,
A moment of pride and joy, future events are still vague.
Life is like a dream, dreams alternate between good and bad luck,
Pursuing pleasure is unbearable suffering, not knowing that suffering and pleasure are the same.
God-given talents, all have their uses,
Soaring high, no need to be in a dream.
A long dream, the dream is gone and the whereabouts are unknown,
When the drunkard wakes up tomorrow, will he be riding a phoenix or a dragon?
God-given talents, all have their uses,
Soaring high, no need to be in a dream.
Why seek dreams, in dreams the sweetness and bitterness are both empty,
I advise you to cherish this moment, you will surely be happy forever.
Why seek dreams.
