细水长流(中文版)
Xi Shui Chang Liu (English version)
Lyrics
年少时候 谁没有梦 无意之中 你将心愿透漏
就在你生日的时候 我将小小口琴送 最难忘记 你的笑容
友情的细水慢慢流 流进了你我的心中
曾在球场边为你欢呼 你跌伤我背负
夜里流星飞渡 想像着他日的路途 晚风听着我们壮志无数
年少时候 谁没有愁 满腔愤慨 唯有你能听得懂
每当我失意的时候 你将那首歌吹奏 琴声悠悠 解我轻忧
岁月的细水慢慢流 流到了别离的时候
轻拍你的肩 听我说朋友不要太惆怅
霓虹纵然再嚣张 我们的步履有方向 成败不论切莫将昔日遗忘
多年以后 又再相逢 我们都有了疲倦的笑容
问一声我的朋友 何时再为我吹奏 是否依旧 是否依旧
人生的际遇千百种 但有知心长相重
人愿长久 水愿长流
年少时候
When we were young, we all had our dreams
Unintentionally, you revealed your heart’s wish
So I gave you a little harmonica on your birthday
I will never forget the way you smiled
The waters of friendship slowly trickled
Into your heart and mine
I cheered for you as you played on the field
And when you fell, I carried you
Shooting stars tumbled in the night sky
As we imagined the road ahead
With only the evening breezes to listen to our infinite dreams
When we were young, we all had our troubles
I was full of pain and anger, and you were the only one who understood
Whenever I felt hopeless, you’d play that song
And the warmth of its melody would ease my worries
The waters of time slowly trickled
Towards the day of our parting
I tapped you on the shoulder and said, “my friend, don’t despair!”
Amidst the city’s glaring neon lights
Our footsteps will find a way
And no matter whether we succeed or fail in life
Let us never forget what we once had
Years later, we meet again
Tired smiles on our faces
If I may ask, my friend
When will you play for me again?
Just like old times?
Just like old times?
Our lives are made up of thousands of encounters
And it’s a precious thing to meet the one who understands your heart
As we wish to go on, so do the waters yearn to flow
When we were young
(English translation by me)
About 细水长流 and the xinyao genre
细水长流 (commonly translated as “Friendship Forever”) was composed by xinyao musician Dr Liang Wern Fook in 1987. Xinyao (or “Singapore ballad”) was a very big thing when I was growing up in the 90s and 00s, and I personally found that this song fit well with the backdrop of the story I wanted to tell — both as a nod to my own diaspora roots, as well as my personal relationship with my language.
You can listen to 细水长流 here. Please consider listening to it as you read my comic!
Here’s the link to the AO3 version of my comic.
About MXTX Diaspora May
MXTX Diaspora May has been running since 2021. Its focus is on elevating international Chinese diaspora voices through the creation of MXTX-related fanworks. Here, Chinese diaspora creators may come together to share the diverse aspects of our culture, as well as connect over our lived experiences. Support of this event will go a long way towards creating a more inclusive and open culture in online communities, especially for creators who rarely get their voices heard in the English-speaking side of fandom. If this concept appeals to you, I hope you take the time to check out the rest of the AO3 collection, including the previous years’ collections, which contain an amazing suite of works by various Chinese diaspora creators! The posting period runs until May 31.
