追光者
Pursuer for Brightness
如果說/你是海上的煙火，我是浪花的泡沫
If you say/ you’re shining on the sea, I will dance on the wave
某一刻你的光照亮了我
In one day, you will enlighten me.
如果說你是遙遠的星河，耀眼得讓人想哭
If you say/ you』ll twinkle on the sky,I can’t help to cry.
我是追逐著你的眼眸，總在孤單時候眺望夜空
I tried to be your soulmate, but the efforts are often in vain
我可以跟在你身後，像影子追著光夢遊
I will follow your paces like shadows andlights.
我可以等在這路口，不管你會不會經過
I can wait on your way whenever you will meet me
每當我為你抬起頭，連眼淚都覺得自由
When I raise my head for you, all the past let it go
有的愛像陽光傾落，邊擁有，邊失去著
My love is the pouring light, deserving to cherish
如果說你是夏夜的螢火，孩子們為你唱歌
If you say/ at night in summer, children sing for your love
那麼我是想要畫你的手
As you know, I would like to paint on your hands
你看我多麼渺小一個我，因為你有夢可做
Look at me, what a common boy (girl) I am! 『se you have the dream
也許你不會為我停留，那就讓我站在你的背後
You go and leave me alone then please allow me to be shadow
我可以跟在你身後，像影子追著光夢遊
I will follow your paces like shadows and lights.
我可以等在這路口，不管你會不會經過
I can wait on your way whenever you will meet me
每當我為你抬起頭，連眼淚都覺得自由
When I raise my head for you, all the past let it go
有的愛像大雨滂沱卻依然相信彩虹
My love is the heavy rain. Tomorrow is another day.
我可以跟在你身後，像影子追著光夢遊
I will follow your paces like shadows and lights.
我可以等在這路口，不管你會不會經過
I can wait on your way whenever you will meet me
每當我為你抬起頭，連眼淚都覺得自由
When I raise my head for you, all the past let it go
有的愛像大雨滂沱，卻依然相信彩虹
My love is the heavy rain. Tomorrow is another day.
原稿譯於2018年1月
歌曲《追光者》通過使用大量比喻、隱喻的手法描寫了一段朦朧、純潔、執著，又追求彼此平等、互助的愛戀。或許這就是初戀，相信自己擁有無限的能力，整個世界都是自己的。這種愛戀隱藏於心底，綻開在心間，是那樣透明、脆弱，需要小心呵護，讓人心潮蕩漾卻難以言表……
在此感謝該譯文音頻朗讀者——陳萍女士。
