相信 Believe - 孙燕姿 Stefanie Sun

Well, I went to KTV yesterday and I sang one of my all time favorite song - Stefanie Sun's "Believe". After that, an interesting thought popped out in my mind, I think I should try to translate this song or any song that i like into English and publish it on my blog.. hahaha. The reason why I wanna do this is because I like to share nice song with others, especially for those who don't know chinese, let them have a chance to feel all these nice piece of songs** although I know no one is reading my blog.... hahhaha**. But, the biggest reason is that I think by this way, I can improve my lousy English indirectly.. wahahhaha.

Yes yes I know, you can find thousands of  grammatical errors in my post, and if you can't stand with it, go to next blog please.. :D  But if you are so kind enough to correct me, yes!! you are so welcome x 100  times!! :D

Ok , lets talk about the translation first, well, I have to say this upfront, my translation is not really exactly literally translate from the Chinese lyrics, I will somehow add in some appropriate words to make the English translation smoother and let it fully carry out the essential emotion of the Chinese lyrics tries to bring out. I think this is important, because I found that some English translation of the Chinese Lyrics don't really able to fully bring out the true emotion of the original version, due to the differences of expression between English and Chinese.  But, again.. if anyone of you have a better suggestion of my translation, feel free to tell me, I would be happy to hear it and I can learn new thing by this way too.. hehhehe

I will give the Chinese pronunciation too, in case anyone wish to learn Chinese via pop songs ** haha, I mean if there is anyone who bothers to read my blog** hahhaha.

Ok ok, cut the shit, let's get started!!!

相信 - 孙燕姿    Xiang Xin - Sun Yan Zi
Believe -Stefanie Sun

突然觉得我只是一个人
Tu Ran Jue De Wo Zhi Shi Yi Ge Ren 
I feel alone suddenly

有点孤单浅浅的忧郁

You Dian Gu Dan Qian Qian De You Yu
feel a bit lonely, feel a bit blue

我不知道明天会不会很美丽

Wo Bu Zhi Dao Ming Tian Hui Bu Hui Hen Mei Li 
I don't know if tomorrow a beautiful day

虽然今天天很蓝

Sui Ran Jin Tian Tian Hen Lan 
Although the sky is blue today

而云很白
Er Yun Hen Bai
and clouds are white

风很凉

Feng Hen Liang 
Winds are breezy

今天日记空白没有关系

Jin Tian Ri Ji Kong Bai Mei You Guan Xi 
If today's diary is left blank, it doesn't matter

不必每件事情都在意

Bu Bi Mei Jian Shi Qing Dou Zai Yi 
Don't need to mind on every tiny little thing

不想工作

Bu Xiang Gong Zuo 
Don't feel like wanna work

不想困扰自己

Bu Xiang Kun Rao Zi Ji
Don't wanna bug myself


不必刻意想你
Bu Bi Ke Yi Xiang Ni 
and don't need to miss you purposely too

该是我的总会来

Gai Shi Wo De Zong Hui Lai
Whatever thing that belongs to me will come to me afterall

就算挑战

Jiu Suan Tiao Zhan 
Even challenge is what it is

我不走开

Wo Bu Zou Kai 
I won't walk away from it



Chorus 



一点点你的微笑
Yi Dian Dian Ni De Wei Xiao 
A little bit of your smile 

已经让我觉得温暖

Yi Jing Rang Wo Jue De Wen Nuan 
Is enough to warm me up

我还不懂坚持

Wo Hai Bu Dong Jian Chi 
I still don't know how to hold on in my life

正好让我

Zheng Hao Rang Wo 
And this could be the perfect time for me 

学会去爱

Xue Hui Qu Ai 
to learn the way to love

我曾经看见困难

Wo Ceng Jing Kan Jian Kun Nan 
I used to confront with obstacles 

变得胆小

Bian De Dan Xiao 
I became coward

不够勇敢

Bu Gou Yong Gan 
Not brave enough

但还是要相信

Dan Hai Shi Yao Xiang Xin 
But I still have to believe

相信感觉

Xiang Xin Gan Jue 
Believe in feelings

相信简单

Xiang Xin Jian Dan 
Believe in simplicity 

有一天, 当我懂得现实也许更灰心

You Yi Tian , Dang Wo Dong De Xian Shi Ye Xu Geng Hui Xin
One day, I might be more frustrated when I understand the reality 

至少现在让我去相信

Zhi Shao Xian Zai Rang Wo Qu Xiang Xin 
But at least now, let me believe the way I believe it is


O
Oh~~

我还是会相信

Wo Hai Shi Hui Xiang Xin 
I will still believe

相信感觉

Xiang Xin Gan Jue
Believe in feelings

相信简单

Xiang Xin Jian Dan 
Believe in simplicity
