Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of Ordinary/Simple Wish只要平凡
yě xǔ hěn yuǎn huò shì zuó tiān
也 许 很 远 或 是 昨 天
It may have been long ago or it’s just yesterday
zài zhè lǐ huò zài duì àn
在 这 里 或 在 对 岸
Right here or somewhere across the river
zhǎng lù niǎn zhuǎn lí hé bēi huān
长 路 辗 转 离 合 悲 欢
In life’s long journey with its ups and downs
rén jù yòu rén sàn
人 聚 又 人 散
Partings are inevitable
fàng guò duì cuò cái zhī dá àn
放 过 对 错 才 知 答 案
Only by letting go will one know
huó zhe de yǒng gǎn
活 着 的 勇 敢
That it takes courage to live
méi yǒu shén de guāng huán
没 有 神 的 光 环
Without God’s blessings
nǐ wǒ shēng ér píng fán
你 我 生 而 平 凡
You and I, we are just ordinary beings
zài xīn suì zhōng rèn qīng yí hàn
在 心 碎 中 认 清 遗 憾
Only when heartbroken do we truly regret
shēng mìng màn zhǎng yě duǎn zàn
生 命 漫 长 也 短 暂
Life…is so long and yet so short
tiào dòng xīn zāng zhǎng chū téng màn
跳 动 心 脏 长 出 藤 蔓
The bonds that we extend from our beating hearts
yuàn wéi xiǎn ér zhàn
愿 为 险 而 战
Let us fight for what we believe in
diē rù huī àn zhuì rù shēn yuān
跌 入 灰 暗 坠 入 深 渊
Even if we fall into darkness and despair
zhān mǎn ní tǔ de liǎn
沾 满 泥 土 的 脸
And get our faces full of grime
méi yǒu shén de guāng huán
没 有 神 的 光 环
Without God’s blessings
wò jǐn shǒu zhōng de píng fán
握 紧 手 中 的 平 凡
Let us hold onto the ordinary things on our hand
cǐ xīn cǐ shēng wú hàn
此 心 此 生 无 憾
I am content for this life
shēng mìng de huǒ yǐ diǎn rán
生 命 的 火 已 点 燃
Now that you have ignited the fire of life
yǒu yī tiān yě xǔ huì zǒu yuǎn
有 一 天 也 许 会 走 远
Maybe we will drift apart one day
yě xǔ hái néng zài xiàng jiàn
也 许 还 能 再 相 见
Maybe we can meet again
wú lùn zài rén qún zài tiān biān
无 论 在 人 群 在 天 边
But no matter where it is
ràng wǒ zài kàn qīng nǐ de liǎn
让 我 再 看 清 你 的 脸
Let me gaze upon your face once again
rèn lèi shuǐ pù mǎn le shuāng yǎn
任 泪 水 铺 满 了 双 眼
As tears fill my eyes unchecked
suī wú yán lèi mǎn miàn
虽 无 言 泪 满 面
I silently let tears cover my face
bú yào shén de guāng huán
不 要 神 的 光 环
No, I do not want God’s blessings
zhī yào nǐ de píng fán
只 要 你 的 平 凡
Only for you to be ordinary
zài xīn suì zhōng rèn qīng yí hàn
