我走遍漫漫的天涯路，
我望断遥远的云和树。
多少的往事堪重数,
你呀你在何处。

我难忘你哀怨的眼睛,
我知道你那沉默的情意。
你牵引我到一个梦中,
我却在别个梦中忘记你。

啊…我的梦和遗忘的人。
啊…受我最初祝福的人。
终日我灌溉着蔷薇,
却让幽蘭枯萎。

I have roamed all the roads,
I have seen past the clouds and trees.
How many memories are worth recounting,
You, O, you; where are you?

I cannot forget your pining eyes,
I understand your quiet affections.
You lead me into a dream,
Yet I've forgotten you in another.

O… my dream and my forgotten one.
O… the one who had my first blessing.
Daily I tend to rambling roses,
In derelict is the quite orchid.
