一葷一素 [Yī hūn yī sù] [English translation]

The sun rises and the sun sets, goes deeper and deeper

On a small square table, there’s a dish of meat and a dish of vegetables

A silhouette is rushing and fussing about

A pair of hands makes this hour warm

Someone too young, he’s never satisfied

Stubbornly refuses to stop his far-marching steps

Eyes on the tall sky, feet on the long road

He forgets to look back to check if she’s crying

The moon is bright, the wind is soft

But you’ve come knocking at my window

If you hear this, don’t worry

I’m doing well

The moon is bright, the wind is soft

But have you ever come to my dream?

It must be that you came too carefully

‘cause you know I sleep lightly

(REPEAT ABOVE)

It must be that you came too carefully

in case I miss you again
