Paroles et traduction Jody Chiang - 行船人的純情曲

行船人的純情曲

八月十五彼一天 船要离开琉球港
只有船烟白茫茫 全无朋友来相送
满腹忧闷心沉重 看无爱人伊一人
坚心忍着纯情梦 带着寂寞来出航
生活海面行船岸 海水泼来冷甲寒
为著前途来打拼 心爱应该了解我
无情风浪怎抹停 心事一层又一层
奋斗打拼的男性 将来才有好前程
船若入港两三天 又搁赶紧要出港
阮的爱人无来送 叫阮怎样来出航
行船的人免怨叹 心情著爱放轻松
等船重入琉球港 约束心爱伊一人

Sailor's Ballad of Pure Love

On the fifteenth of August, the ship was to leave Ryukyu Port.
Only the smoke of the ship was a white haze, there were no friends to see me off.
My heart was heavy with worries, I could not see my lover.
I held back my pure love with a strong heart and set sail with loneliness.
Life is a ship sailing on the sea, the sea water comes in cold and chilling.
For the future, I must fight, my love should understand me.
How can the ruthless wind and waves stop? My worries grow one after another.
Men who struggle and fight will have a good future.
If the ship enters port for two or three days, I will have to leave again in a hurry.
My love does not come to see me off, how can I set sail?
Sailors should not complain, let their hearts relax.
When the ship enters Ryukyu Port again, I will restrain my love.
