Translation of the song 蒙著嘴說愛你 artist Keung To

Chinese (Cantonese)

蒙著嘴說愛你

English translation

Love Behind the Mask

可否一覺甦醒 推開窗看看風景 

Could I just wake up from my sleep, open the window and look at the scenery?

混亂日子不見蹤影 鳥語花香呼應 

And see that no trace remains of those chaotic days, while the chirping birds and fragrant blossoms join in

阻止黑暗得逞

To stop the advancing darkness

始終相信惡夢會過 

I have always believed that the nightmares will eventually pass

健康與和平 不必依靠偶然性

Health and peace don’t necessarily depend on random chance

愛接愛 人連人 可以一拼

If love and affection can bring people together, they can

活化 我心境

Revitalize my mind too

So I say I love you 只有愛恆久不枯

So I say I love you, only love is unfaltering

生活在劫難裡 心靈從未給沾污

We live in suffering, yet our hearts were never tainted

天給我貧病困苦 笑著去吃苦

If God hands me lemons, I shall make lemonade1

沒怨恨誰人可惡

And I won’t resent those who are terrible

So I say I love you 花半秒唇齒功夫

So I say I love you, with only a few words

使淡靜歲月變豐富

I shall make our simple lives more fulfilling

即使要蒙著我嘴 我亦可高呼

Even when my mouth is masked over, I can still proclaim

全憑愛令我堅持 還有你悉心照顧

That it was love that kept me going, and your delicate care too

多想趕快歸隊 必須將鬥志高舉

How I wish I could fall back in line, so I ought to keep my spirits high

但願上天給我應許 眷顧身邊的愛侶

If only God made me a promise to bless my dearest partner

巴不得吻這張嘴

I won’t wait to plant a kiss on these lips

即將一切會成過去 幸福悄悄伴隨

Everything will soon come to pass, and what follows shall be bliss

此刻身處過程裡

We are just in the middle of things

嚇怕了 難捱時 不撤不退

If panic takes over and it’s become too difficult to bear, there’s no need to retreat

集氣 再爭取

Let’s focus and fight on

So I say I love you 只有愛恆久不枯

So I say I love you, only love is unfaltering

生活在劫難裡 心靈從未給沾污

We live in suffering, yet our hearts were never tainted

即使要蒙著我嘴 我亦可高呼

Even when my mouth is masked over, I can still proclaim

全憑愛令我堅持 還有你悉心照顧

That it was love that kept me going, and your delicate care too

不在乎 多在乎

I don’t care, I do care

生於這世界 還有一些牽掛令我在乎

Living in this world, there are still things that I am concerned about

等天際亮了 不區分喜惡

When the horizon grows brighter, let’s put aside our preferences

除下這隔膜打個招呼

Remove our divides and greet each other

So I say I love you 只有愛恆久不枯

So I say I love you, only love is unfaltering

生活在劫難裡 希望從未給沾污

We live in suffering, yet our hopes were never tainted

天給我磨練也好 我未敢辜負

No matter how much hardship God hands me, I won’t dare let Him down

誰要被懷疑低估

No one is to be doubted or underestimated

Here we say I love you 都變了甜品師傅

Here we say I love you, we’ve all become pastry chefs

巧妙地化掉這點苦

Skilfully melting away the bitterness in life

即使要蒙著我嘴 更大聲歡呼

Even if my mouth is masked over, I shall exclaim even louder

全憑愛令人堅持 還有各位的照顧

That it was love that kept me going, and also everyone’s tender loving care
