Lyrics and Translation to Balloons - Peggy Hsu (许哲佩 - 气球)
黑的白的红的黄的 (hēide báide hóngde huángde)
Black, white, red, yellow
紫的绿的蓝的灰的 (zǐde lǜde lánde huīde)
Purple, green, blue, gray
你的我的他的她的 (nǐde wǒde tāde tāde)
Yours, mine, his, hers
大的小的圆的扁的 (dàde xiǎode yuánde biǎnde)
Big, small, round, flat
好的坏的美的丑的 (hǎode huàide měide chǒude)
Good, bad, pretty, ugly
新的旧的各种款式各种花色任你选择 (xīn de jiù de gè zhǒng kuǎnshì gè zhòng huāsè rèn nǐ xuǎnzé)
New, old, different styles and different colors that you can choose
飞得高高越远越好(fēi dé gāo gāo yuè yuǎn yuè hǎo)
The higher and further it flies the better
剪断了线它就死掉 (jiǎnduànle xiàn tā jiù sǐ diào)
Cut the string and it will die
寿命短短高兴就好 (shòumìng duǎn duǎn gāoxìng jiù hǎo)
Good that its life is short and happy
喜欢就好没大不了 (xǐhuān jiù hǎo méi dàbùliǎo)
It’s no big deal to like it
越变越小越来越小 (yuè biàn yuè xiǎo yuè lái yuè xiǎo)
It’s getting smaller and smaller
快要死掉也很骄傲 (kuàiyào sǐ diào yě hěn jiāo'ào)
It’s nearly dying but still very proud
你不想说就别再说 (nǐ bùxiǎng shuō jiù bié zàishuō)
Don’t say anything if you don’t want to
我不想听不想再听 (wǒ bùxiǎng tīng bù xiǎng zài tīng)
I don’t want to listen, I don’t want to listen to it again
就把一切誓言当作气球一般随它而去 (jiù bǎ yīqiè shìyán dàng zuò qìqiú yībān suí tā ér qù) Take all the promises as a balloon and let it be
我不在意不会在意放它而去随它而去 (wǒ bù zàiyì bù huì zàiyì fàng tā ér qù suí tā ér qù)
I don’t care, won’t care, let it go, let it be
气球 (qìqiú)
Balloon
飘进云里(piāo jìn yún lǐ)
Floating into the clouds
飘进风里(piāo jìn fēng lǐ)
Floating in the wind
结束生命(jiéshù shēngmìng)
Ending its life
气球(qìqiú)
Balloon
飘进爱里(piāo jìn ài lǐ)
Floating in love
飘进心里(piāo jìn xīnlǐ)
Floating in the heart
慢慢死去(màn man sǐqù)
Dying slowly
See you next time!
