Translation of the song 水刑物語 artist Jer Lau

Chinese (Cantonese)

水刑物語

English translation

Tale of the Water Punishment

懷抱了怨恨 困溺海中心

I embraced my grudges, and became stranded in the middle of the ocean

沉重到缺氧時 無從翻身

At times they were so stiflingly intense, I couldn’t even turn over

仍故意抱憾 往深淵終生

Still, I deliberately clung on to my regrets, heading towards the abyss to end my life

沉澱到碰見神 卻不靠近

Submerging till I met God, yet I went no closer

讓世界變暗

So let the world darken

光線 引我 再次回眸

Lured by a ray of light, I glanced back once more

岸邊 伸出 這一對手 Yeah~ Woo~

From the shore, a pair of arms reached out, yeah~ woo~

你解開了 毒咒

And you broke my curse

聲線 領我 再往前游

Guided by a voice, I swam forth once more

上升 身軀 找到缺口 Yeah~ Woo~

My ascending form found a gap, yeah~ woo~

你敞開了 白晝

And you lit up the daylight

誰救我我問 誰會夠我笨

“Who could save me?” I questioned; “Who could be dumber than me?”

沉默對答惹來 鯨魚生吞

But your silent reply had me engulfed by a whale

難化作養分 酸苦中自困

It’s hard to transform into nutrients when I was ensnared in my own bitterness

沉下去這廢人 決心關燈

So this sinking derelict here decides to turn off all the lights

讓世界更暗

And let the world darken further

光線 引我 再次回眸

Lured by a ray of light, I glanced back once more

岸邊 伸出 這一對手 Yeah~ Woo~

From the shore, a pair of arms reached out, yeah~ woo~

你解開了 毒咒

And you broke my curse

聲線 領我 再往前游

Guided by a voice, I swam forth once more

上升 身軀 找到缺口 Yeah~ Woo~

My ascending form found a gap, yeah~ woo~

你敞開了 白晝

And you lit up the daylight

一笑 引我 再次回眸(墮進深溝)

Lured by your smile, I glanced back once more (falling into the trenches)

岸邊 伸出 這一對手 Yeah~ Woo~(救生出口)

From the shore, a pair of arms reached out, yeah~ woo~ (an emergency exit)

再不需要 獨奏

No need to perform solo anymore

一吻 領我 再往前游(茫茫宇宙)

Guided by your kiss, I swam forth once more (a boundless universe)

上升 身軀 找到缺口 Yeah~ Woo~(某顆星斗)

My ascending form found the gap, yeah~ woo~ (a certain star)

也找到了 伴奏

And I found my accompaniment

墮進深溝

Falling into the trenches

救生出口

An emergency exit

茫茫宇宙

A boundless universe

某顆星斗

A certain star
