Текст и перевод песни Joey Yung - 搜神記

搜神記

當初膚淺 得你恩寵似升仙 天有眼
當真糊塗 未曾發覺我該俯瞰南極快沒有冰山
當初專心 跟你燭光晚餐
從沒有認識蠟燭怎樣消散
當你的光環 暗過世間火柴何用困在五指山

而神跡失靈才知天大地大轉得快
夢幻的生涯無非拖手逛街
怪得誰 要敬拜你
便沒視力靜觀世態

忘掉誰是你 記住我亦有自己見地
無論你幾高 身價亦低過青花瓷器
評核我自己 只顧投資於愛情
困在你小宇宙損失看大世界的好奇

回味誰是你 往日有甚麼品味
只要敢遠飛 亦能自創我的搜神記
磨練我自己 做人目光高過聚散分離
就憑你 相愛大不了提升演技當做戲

從前只懂情人的感動力量最珍貴
未洞悉小巷大街遍地華麗
昂起頭 看遍世界
我也會有我的氣勢

忘掉誰是你 記住我亦有自己見地
無論你幾高 身價亦低過青花瓷器
評核我自己 只顧投資於愛情
困在你小宇宙損失對大世界的好奇

回味誰是你 往日有甚麼品味
只要敢遠飛 亦能自創我的搜神記
磨練我自己 做人目光高過聚散分離
就憑你 相愛大不了提升演技當做戲

拋開你先識去審美
往後我便有自己見地
無論愛幾高 身價亦低過青花瓷器
評核我自己 只顧投資於愛情
困在你小宇宙損失看大世界的福氣

回味誰是你 往日有甚麼品味
只要敢遠飛 亦能自創我的煙花紀
神是我自己 若然目光高過聚散分離
奉承你 因往日雙眼無珠不停放大你

想快樂不靠神跡才懂創世紀

Search for a Deity

Initially shallow, your favor felt like a heavenly ascent. Heaven has eyes.
How truly foolish I was, never realizing I ought to peer down and see the south pole was rapidly losing its glaciers.
At the time, I was single-minded, engrossed in our candlelit dinners.
I never gave thought to how candles inevitably burn out.
When your halo grew dimmer than a match, what use was I, trapped in your five-fingered prison?

Only when your divine powers waned did I realize how swiftly the world turns.
Our dreamlike existence was nothing more than holding hands and strolling through shopping malls.
Who's to blame for my idolatry?
It blinded me to the realities of life.

Forgetting who you are, I'll remember that I have my own perspective.
No matter how tall you stand, your worth is less than fine china.
I've reassessed myself, realizing I've invested solely in love.
Confined to your tiny universe, I've missed out on the wonders of the wider world.

Recalling who you are, I question my former tastes.
With the courage to soar, I can author my own tale of divine discovery.
I am refining myself, setting my sights higher than the cycles of love and loss.
When it comes to you, love is nothing more than an act, a performance.

In the past, I believed only in the precious power of romantic emotions.
I failed to grasp the allure that abounds in every alley and avenue.
With head held high, I survey the world,
And I too shall have my moment.

Forgetting who you are, I'll remember that I have my own perspective.
No matter how tall you stand, your worth is less than fine china.
I've reassessed myself, realizing I've invested solely in love.
Confined to your tiny universe, I've missed out on the wonders of the wider world.

Recalling who you are, I question my former tastes.
With the courage to soar, I can author my own tale of divine discovery.
I am refining myself, setting my sights higher than the cycles of love and loss.
When it comes to you, love is nothing more than an act, a performance.

Casting you aside, I'll learn to appreciate beauty.
Henceforth, I shall possess my own perspective.
No matter how tall you stand, your worth is less than fine china.
I've reassessed myself, realizing I've invested solely in love.
Confined to your tiny universe, I've missed out on the blessings of the wider world.

Recalling who you are, I question my former tastes.
With the courage to soar, I can author my own saga of fireworks.
I am my own deity, my gaze transcending the cycles of love and loss.
I adored you because my unseeing eyes magnified your every flaw.

I now understand that happiness is not a divine gift, but something we create ourselves.
