Lyrics and translation 謝安琪 - 大城小動




大城小動
Small Acts in the City
在月台裡 母子相擁
On the platform, mother and child embrace
隔半生久別 情再接通
After being apart for half a lifetime, emotions reconnect
聚在園裡 老翁一眾
Gathering in the park, a group of elderly men
細數大家抗戰時硬朗英勇
Retelling stories of their bravery and resilience during the war
敞開心扉稍試冷靜
Open your heart, find some peace
會見到身邊滿載情
You'll see the love that surrounds you
岩隙裡亦可找到玫瑰的 美麗蹤影
Even in the cracks of the rocks, you can find the beauty of a rose
貌似小事千種 潛伏大城暗動
Seemingly insignificant acts, hidden within the city's depths
有血肉有情感 跟你相通
Full of life and emotion, connecting you and me
就算生活超重 煩憂失控
Even when life weighs heavy, and worries overwhelm
還看四周小胡同 是窩心的觸碰
Look around, in the small alleys, you'll find warmth and compassion
粵劇棚裡 老倌唱頌
In the Cantonese opera house, the old master sings his heart out
和門下子弟 沉醉戲中
With his apprentices, lost in the world of the play
在墓園裡 上香者眾
In the cemetery, mourners gather
懷念大火裡救人逝將的勇
Remembering the heroes who died saving lives in the fire
敞開心扉放鬆冷靜
Open your heart, let go of your worries
會見到身邊總有情
You'll see that you're never alone
繁囂裡亦可找到人性的 美麗蹤影
Even in the hustle and bustle, you can find the beauty of humanity
貌似小事千種 潛伏大城暗動
Seemingly insignificant acts, hidden within the city's depths
有血肉有情感 跟你相通
Full of life and emotion, connecting you and me
就算生活超重 煩憂失控
Even when life weighs heavy, and worries overwhelm
還看四周小胡同 是窩心的觸碰
Look around, in the small alleys, you'll find warmth and compassion
驟看小事千種 其實極為哄動
At first glance, these small acts seem insignificant, but they're actually quite moving
有血肉有情感 跟你相通
Full of life and emotion, connecting you and me
讓愛鼓動火種 溶解冰凍
Let love ignite the fire, melt the ice
還看四周小胡同 是窩心的觸碰
Look around, in the small alleys, you'll find warmth and compassion
