Original lyrics

无问

你问风为什么托着候鸟飞翔

却又吹的让他慌张

你问雨为什么滋养万物生长

却也湿透他的衣裳

你问他为什么亲吻他的伤疤

却又不能带他回家

你问我为什么还是不敢放下

明知听不到回答

如果光已忘了要将前方照亮

你会握着我的手吗

如果路会通往不知名的地方

你会跟我一起走吗

一生太短一瞬好长

我们哭着醒来又哭着遗忘

幸好啊你的手曾落在我肩膀

就像空中漂浮的

渺小的某颗尘土

它到底为什么为什么

不肯停驻

直到乌云散去风雨落幕

他会带你找到光的来处

就像手边落满了

灰尘的某一本书

它可曾单薄地

承载了谁的酸楚

尽管岁月无声流向迟暮

他会让你想起你的归途

如果光已忘了要将前方照亮

你会握着我的手吗

如果路会通往不知名的地方

你会跟我一起走吗

Translation

Without Asking

You ask the wind why it supports migratory birds as they fly,

yet it makes him agitated

You ask the rain why it nourishes growth of all living things,

yet it soaks through his clothes

You ask him why he gently kisses his scar,

yet he cannot bring him home

You ask me why I still don't dare to let go

when, clearly, you know you won't hear the answer

If the light forgets to illuminate the path ahead of us,

will you hold my hand?

If the road leads to unknown places,

will you walk with me?

Life is too short, a moment is too long

We cry as we wake and cry as we forget

Fortunately, your hand always falls onto my shoulder

Just like a drifting,

microscopic speck of dust

Why, why is it

unwilling to stop?

Until the dark clouds clear and the storm blows over

He will take you to find where light comes from

Just like a certain dusty

book by your hand,

It has always weakly

sustained the weight of whose sorrow?

Although the years have silently flowed past their prime,

he will remind you of your way home

If the light forgets to illuminate the path ahead of us,

will you hold my hand?

If the road leads to unknown places,

will you walk with me?
