再见 草莓甜甜圈 街角咖啡店 落下雨点
zai4 jian4 cao3 mei2 tian2 tian2 quan1, jie1 jiao3 ka1 fei1 dian4, luo4 xia4 yu3 dian3
Goodbye! Strawberry donuts, coffee shop at the street corner; the rain drops are falling down.
再见 黑白老照片 回忆电影院 埋进地面
zai4 jian4, hei1 bai2 lao3 zhao4 pian4, hui2 yi4 dian4 ying3 yuan4, mai2 jin4 di4 mian4
Goodbye! Black and white old photos and the cinemas of memories are being buried into the ground.
再见 我们初识的那个公园
zai4 jian4 wo3 men1 chu1 shi4 de5 na4 ge5 gong1 yuan2
Goodbye! That park where we first met
那天是谁先吻了谁 被谁遗忘的秋千
na4 tian1 shi4 shui2 xian1 wen3 liao5 shui2, bei4 shui2 yi2 wang4 de5 qiu1 qian1
That day who first kissed whom; the swing that was forgotten by whom?
再见 那么多名车名表名鞋
zai4 jian4 na4 me5 duo1 ming2 che1 ming2 biao3 ming2 xie2
Goodbye! So many famous cars, brand name watches and brand name shoes.
最后我们只能带走 名为回忆的花园
zui4 hou4 wo3 men1 zhi3 neng2 dai4 zou3, ming2 wei2 hui2 yi4 de5 hua1 yuan2
At the end, we can only take away the so called “garden of memory”.
如果要告别 如果今夜就要和一切告别
ru2 guo3 yao4 gao4 bie2, ru2 guo3 jin1 ye4 jiu4 yao4 he2 yi2 qie4 gao4 bie2
If have to say goodbye, if tonight I have to say farewell to everything,
如果你只能打一通电话 你会拨给谁
ru2 guo3 ni3 zhi3 neng2 da3 yi4 tong1 dian4 hua4, ni3 hui4 bo1 gei3 shui2
If you can only make one phone call, whom will you dial to?
晚安 鹦鹉和孔雀 花豹和人类 望着海面
wan3 an1 ying1 wu3 he2 kong3 que4, hua1 bao4 he2 ren2 lei4, wang4 zhe5 hai3 mian4
Goodnight! Parrots and peacocks, leopards and human beings, look at the surface of the sea.
晚安 底片和唱片 沉浮在浪间 就像诗篇
wan3 an1 di3 pian4 he2 chang4 pian4 chen2 fu2 zai4 lang4 jian1, jiu4 xiang4 shi1 pian1
Goodnight! Photographic plate and gramophone record sink and float between the waves like the poems.
晚安 自由女神漂到华尔街
wan3 an1 zi4 you2 nv3 shen2 piao1 dao4 hua2 er3 jie1
Goodnight! The goddess of freedom drifts to Wall Street.
我们在甲板上摸到 杜拜塔顶的塔尖
wo3 men1 zai4 jia3 ban3 shang4 mo1 dao4 du4 bai4 ta3 ding3 de5 ta3 jian1
We touch the spire top of the Du Bai spire on the deck.
晚安 海豚跃出西藏的屋檐
wan3 an1 hai3 tun2 yue4 chu1 xi1 cang4 de5 wu1 yan2
Goodnight! The dolphins leap out the eaves of Tibet.
原来幻想中的这天 会比幻想更唯美
yuan2 lai2 huan4 xiang3 zhong1 de5 zhe4 tian1 hui4 bi3 huan4 xiang3 geng4 wei2 mei3
As it turns out, this day of my delusion would be more aesthetic than the delusion itself.
还是要告别 还是放弃海拔以下的世界
huan2 shi4 yao4 gao4 bie2 huan2 shi4 fang4 qi4 hai3 ba2 yi3 xia4 de5 shi4 jie4
Still have to say farewell; still have to give up the world which is below the height above sea level.
你会装进什么回忆纪念 在行李里面
ni3 hui4 zhuang1 jin4 shi2 me5 hui2 yi4 ji4 nian4 zai4 xing2 li3 li3 mian4
What souvenirs of memory you will put into inside of luggage?
终于要告别 终于没有更多的明天要追
zhong1 yu2 yao4 gao4 bie2 zhong1 yu2 mei2 you3 geng4 duo1 de5 ming2 tian1 yao4 zhui1
Finally have to say farewell; finally there is no tomorrow to pursue.
你有什么遗憾依然残缺 还没有完美
ni3 you3 shi2 me5 yi2 han4 yi1 ran2 can2 que1, huan2 mei2 you3 wan2 mei3
What regrets do you still feel badly damaged, feel that they haven’t reached perfection yet?
当彗星燃烧天边 陨石像雨点
dang1 hui4 xing1 ran2 shao1 tian1 bian1 yun3 shi2 xiang4 yu3 dian3
When comets flaming at the end of the earth, meteorites are like raindrops.
当辐射比阳光还要炽烈
dang1 fu2 she4 bi3 yang2 guang1 huan2 yao4 chi4 lie4
When radiation is more blazing than the sunshine
当爱变得浓烈 当每段命运 更加壮烈
dang1 ai4 bian4 de5 nong2 lie4 dang1 mei3 duan4 ming4 yun4 geng4 jia1 zhuang4 lie4
When the love becomes more dense and passionate; when each section of life becomes more strong and heroic
当永远变成一种遥远 当句点变成一种观点
dang1 yong3 yuan3 bian4 cheng2 yi4 zhong3 yao2 yuan3 dang1 ju4 dian3 bian4 cheng2 yi4 zhong3 guan1 dian3
When forever becomes one kind of faraway; when a period becomes one kind of view point
让人类终于变成同类
rang4 ren2 lei4 zhong1 yu2 bian4 cheng2 tong2 lei4
Let human beings finally become the same type
勇敢的告别 勇敢地向过去和未来告别
yong3 gan3 de5 gao4 bie2, yong3 gan3 di5 xiang4 guo4 qu4 he2 wei4 lai2 gao4 bie2
Brave goodbyes, bravely bid farewell to the past and the future.
告别每段血缘身分地位 聪明或愚昧
gao4 bie2 mei3 duan4 xue3 yuan2 shen1 fen4 di4 wei4, cong1 ming2 huo4 yu2 mei4
Say goodbyes to each section of blood line, status, position, smart or foolishness.
最后的告别 最后一个心愿是学会高飞
zui4 hou4 de5 gao4 bie2, zui4 hou4 yi2 ge5 xin1 yuan4 shi4 xue2 hui4 gao1 fei1
The last farewell, the last wish is to learn to fly high
飞在不存在的高山草原 星空和蓝天
fei1 zai4 bu4 cun2 zai4 de5 gao1 shan1 cao3 yuan2, xing1 kong1 he2 lan2 tian1
flying in the non-existing high mountains, grassland, starry sky and the blue sky.
让诺亚方舟航向了海平线

Let Noah’s Ark sail toward the horizon
让诺亚方舟航向了换日线

Noah’s Ark quotes and advice:
Noah’s Ark Everything I need to know, I learned from Noah’s Ark…
ONE: Don’t miss the boat.
TWO: Remember that we are all in the same boat.
THREE: Plan ahead. It wasn’t raining when Noah built the Ark.
FOUR: Stay fit. When you’re 60 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
FIVE: Don’t listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.
SIX: Build your future on high ground.
SEVEN: For safety’s sake, travel in pairs.
EIGHT: Speed isn’t always an advantage. The snails were on board with the cheetahs.
NINE: When you’re stressed, float awhile.
TEN: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.
ELEVEN: No matter the storm, when you are with God, there’s always a rainbow waiting.
This passage of quotes comes from:http://quotes.wordpress.com/2008/01/11/noahs-ark/
“Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.”
“It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark”
“The biblical account of Noah’s Ark and the Flood is perhaps the most implausible story for fundamentalists to defend. Where, for example, while loading his ark, did Noah find penguins and polar bears in Palestine?”
Judith Hayes quotes
“And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made: / And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.”
Bible quotes
“And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged; / The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained; / And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.”
Bible quotes
