Objet petit a


爱不可及
王菲 (Wáng Fēi)

几步之遥 一生距离
风欲静 而心不息
后会有期 却无爱可纪
相濡以沫 空留一口气

一辈子三个字听来熟悉
没说然后就在一起
来不及也走不及
死而有憾 因得一知己

反正死别 不如生离
命在这 运在哪里
灵魂有意 而肉身麻痹
唇离齿太远 触不可及

可爱可爱不可及
命和运太远 爱不可及


Unattainable Love
王菲 (Wáng Fēi)

Just one step away from life
The wind is quiet, but the heart is flooding
I hope to meet you again, but love is not transcendent
One last breath is all we have to share

A life spent listening to familiar words
But not enough time to say together again
It’s too late to be content with less
A deep regret for what might have been

We met and we parted without dying
Life fleeing nowhere
The soul longs but the body is stunned
The lips now too far from the teeth

Unattainable love
Love and life fleeing away

(Very free translation by 洛伦佐)

一万个舍不得 (Ten Thousand Reluctant)


一万个舍不得
庄心妍

不要追问对与错
毕竟我们深爱过
有你陪的日子里
我真的好快乐

你总是小心翼翼的
因为你怕我难过
而我却不能给你
给你想要的结果

一万个舍不得
不能回到从前了
爱你没有后悔过
只是应该结束了

一万个舍不得
我是永远爱你的
爱你我觉得值得
只是不能再爱了

不要追问对与错
毕竟我们深爱过
有你陪的日子里
我真的真的好快乐

你总是小心翼翼的
因为你怕我难过
而我却不能给你想要的结果
你永远都是最好的

分开了 不代表不爱你了
我心里 你永远都是最好的。


Ten Thousand Reluctant
莊心妍 (Zhuāng Xīnyán) a.k.a. Ada

Don’t ask whether it is right or wrong
After all, we loved each other
And in the days with you
I felt so much happy

You’re always so cautious
Because you are afraid I may feel sad
And I can’t
I can’t give you what you want

Ten thousand reluctant
I can’t go back to the past
But I’ll never regret loving you
No matter what happens

Ten thousand reluctant
I’ll love you forever
Loving you is worth it
I can’t love anyone but you

Don’t ask whether it is right or wrong
After all, we loved each other
And in the days with you
I felt so much happy

You’re always so cautious
Because you are afraid I may feel sad
And I can’t give you what you want
You’ll always be my one and only

Being parted from you doesn’t mean I no longer love you
In my heart you'll always be my one and only
