Текст песни и перевод на английский 梁漢文 - 一再問究竟

一再問究竟

那夜孩童前來問候你
騙他的說 風砂吹入眼睛
這夜孩童隨年月大了
呆站街角 忘懷年少氣盛

獨個望向晚星 路人踏我影
淚兒凝在睫 為何無人問究竟

從前在路上遇著你
紅腫的雙眼一生給我做個記認
原諒我沒看穿風景
刻意數數星星哥哥當晚要獨個避靜
抬頭又是十聲苦笑
重演這一晚既定劇情沒法意料
輕抹這眼淚淡影 縱心智熟了
一再問究竟不知曉

鳥在籠內何事靜默了
那天的我 哭泣聲渡破曉
美夢仍在何事被動了
那天真我 隨年華已耗掉

問渴望永久的 為何定要走
未能長伴我 誓盟全部沒法守

從前在路上遇著你
紅腫的雙眼一生給我做個記認
原諒我沒看穿風景
刻意數數星星哥哥當晚要獨個避靜
抬頭又是十聲苦笑
重演這一晚既定劇情沒法意料
輕抹這眼淚淡影 縱心智熟了
一再問究竟不知曉

從前在路上遇著你
紅腫的雙眼一生給我做個記認
陪伴我在跳這花繩
怎也不哼一聲哥哥當晚要獨個避靜
抬頭又是十聲苦笑
重演這一晚既定劇情沒法意料
不再需要問究竟 我心智熟了
今晚才明白那寂寥

星也側耳在細聽 也不發問了
只有用沉默當治療

Repeated Questioning

That night, a child greeted you
You lied to him and said the wind blew sand into your eyes
Tonight, the child has grown with the years
Standing still on the street corner, forgetting his youthful vigor

Staring alone at the evening star, pedestrians step on my shadow
Tears well up in my eyelashes, why doesn't anyone ask the reason

I used to meet you on the road
Your red and swollen eyes remind me of you all my life
Forgive me for not seeing through the scenery
Intentionally counting stars, that night you wanted to be alone in peace
I looked up again, ten bitter laughs
Repeating this night's predetermined plot, I couldn't have anticipated
Lightly wiping away the faint trace of tears, even though my mind has matured
Repeated questioning, but I still don't know

Why is the bird in the cage so silent?
That day, my cries broke through the dawn
My beautiful dream is still there, why is it being disturbed?
That innocent me has been consumed by the years

Ask what I've always longed for, why did it have to go?
You couldn't stay with me for long, all my vows are broken

I used to meet you on the road
Your red and swollen eyes remind me of you all my life
Forgive me for not seeing through the scenery
Intentionally counting stars, that night you wanted to be alone in peace
I looked up again, ten bitter laughs
Repeating this night's predetermined plot, I couldn't have anticipated
Lightly wiping away the faint trace of tears, even though my mind has matured
Repeated questioning, but I still don't know

I used to meet you on the road
Your red and swollen eyes remind me of you all my life
Accompanying me in jumping rope
Why didn't you hum a tune? That night you wanted to be alone in peace
I looked up again, ten bitter laughs
Repeating this night's predetermined plot, I couldn't have anticipated
I don't need to ask anymore, my mind has matured
Tonight I finally understand that loneliness

Even the stars listen intently but don't ask
Only silence can heal
