梦一场 (那英)
An Empty Dream
我们都曾经寂寞而给对方承诺
We both have been lonely promised each other我们都因为折磨而厌倦了生活
We’re both tired of such life of torture

只是这样的日子 同样的方式 还要多久
How much longer will this last?

我们改变了态度而接纳了对方
We have changed to accept the other

我们委屈了自己成全谁的梦想
Whose dream are we fulfilling by putting aside our own?

只是这样的日子 还剩下多少 已不重要
It’s not important how many days like this are left any more

时常想起过去的温存 它让我在夜里不会冷
The warmth from the past comes to mine sometimes,
which drives away the cold night

你说一个人的美丽是认真 两个人能在一起是缘份
You said one’s beauty is her seriousness
It’s destiny that brought us together

早知道是这样 像梦一场
Had I known it’d end up this way, like a dream

我才不会把爱都放在同一个地方
I’d never put my love in one basket

我能原谅 你的荒唐 荒唐的是我没有办法遗忘
I can forgive your absurdity
What’s more absurd is that I cannot forget it

早知道是这样 如梦一场

Had I know it’d end up this way, like a dream

我又何必把泪都锁在自己的眼眶
Why would I have kept my tears to myself
让我在没有你的地方疗
I’d heal in a place away from you

And boil it up and sit me down
And dip my old cold toes in.

Information about Na ying / Natasha Na

Na Ying (Chinese: 那英; pinyin: Nā Yīng, less frequently referred to as Natasha Na, born November 27, 1967) is a Chinese vocalist. She is considered as one of the best present-day female singers in Mainland China, having sold more than 10 million albums. She is also noted for her buoyant and forthright personality.[1]

She was born in Shenyang, Liaoning. She is an ethnic Manchu, said to be of the Yehe Nara clan. Na won several national singing contests in the 1980s, and in 1988 began her recording career in Taiwan and Hong Kong.[1]

At the 1998 Spring Festival Gala show hosted by CCTV, Na Ying sang a duet “Meet in ’98” (相約一九九八) with her friend Faye Wong. Wong had already achieved fame in Hong Kong and elsewhere, but the performance with Na brought her to superstar status in China itself.[2]

Na Ying had a relationship with Chinese footballer Gao Feng and had a son, but the two broke up in 2005.[3] She married Meng Tong in 2006.

Although she devoted time to her family and children from 2002 to 2009, she never quit the stage,[1] and had a prominent role at the closing ceremony of the 2008 Summer Olympic Games.[4]

At the close of 2009 she performed the concert “20 Years of Na”, a retrospective of her stage career, at the Capital Gymnasium. Although her 2009 single “The Journey of Love” topped the charts wherever it was released, her early song “Follow Your Instinct” remains her favourite.
