Singin' Saturday + Lyric Translation: The Next Page of Me-Cyndi Wang

-ENGLISH TRANSLATED-


Song: The Next Page of Me
Chinese Title: 下一頁的我
Artist: Cydni Wang
TTS: None

Wdebo's Notes: I really love this song and was reminded of it while reading the DEAR TEEN ME anthology. I was too lazy to actually find a video that had the english subs and so I decided to translate something after about a year long hiatus. I love the little breaks Cyndi places in the song so that's why there are random fragments throughout the english translation. I was trying to accentuate that for the non-Chinese speakers. I got the Chinese lyrics from this site! All credits go to them ~Also, sorry each line doesn't match up exactly. Basically each line of the english translation (Until the "enter") corresponds to one line of the Chinese lyric!

Now onto the talk of the actual song~

I love it (As stated above). It's a beautifully hopeful yet bittersweet look into the future. This is how I see my future. I want to be strong as I work towards my dreams but I hope for support and strength and I cannot wait to see where I will go. I am also pleasantly surprised to see how Cyndi's voice has improved, though it still has retained its cuteness which is prevalent in her older songs it has a maturity to it. (Kind of like Rainie's vocal growth but not as drastic).

Listen and Love!

就要出發 是嗎 這問題困擾著我
是個可能吧 或許想太多
有的夢不去做好可惜
我害怕嗎 有點 孤單很痛的對不對
我得放下 翻開這一頁 沒時間想過去

心中會怕才問自己 那些曾經的話語
謝謝是你讓我有天空和明天 學會獨立
站在未知的泥土裡 看我勇敢的深呼吸
黑的夜 我不怕 天空很大 像在說 不能哭

下一頁的我 會去哪裡 用多大的勇氣
所有夢裡面的風雨 我不怕那是我的試題
下一頁的我 希望能擁有 美麗的明天
所以這次我送走從前 因為我 看的見

擔心什麼 去吧 愛讓人哭真對不起
之前的回憶 握在掌心裡
它讓我 再苦也肯努力
耳邊的風 吹吧 讓我聽見新消息
在旅途上 愛是氧氣 讓我越來越肯定

心中會怕才問自己 那些曾經的話語
謝謝是你讓我有天空和明天 學會獨立
站在未知的泥土裡 看我勇敢的深呼吸
黑的夜 我不怕 天空很大 像在說 不能哭

下一頁的我 會去哪裡 用多大的勇氣
所有夢裡面的風雨 我不怕那是我的試題
下一頁的我 希望能擁有 美麗的明天
所以這次我送走從前 因為我 看的見

寓言藏在我心中 相信它吧 往前衝
我的路 我就一定讓它走成幸福
那些作了的夢忘了嗎 那些萬分之一的也許
不用說 我還是我 約定怎樣寂寞也不能哭
看吧 下大雨也不認輸 請讓我 學長大

下一頁的我 會去哪裡 用多大的勇氣
所有夢裡面的風雨 我不怕那是我的試題
下一頁的我 希望能擁有 美麗的明天
所以這次我送走從前 因為我 看的見
所有夢裡面的風雨 我不怕那是我的試題
下一頁的我 希望能擁有 美麗的明天
所以這次我送走從前 因為我 看的見

About to depart. Really? This question is puzzling me.
It’s a possibility or else I’m thinking too much.
It’s a big waste not to work towards a dream
Am I scared? A bit. Being alone is painful, isn’t?
I have to let go. Flip over this page. No time to dwell on the past.

My heart is frightened that’s why I ask myself those past words.
Thank you for letting me have a sky and tomorrow. Learning independence.
Standing in the mud of the unknown. Watching me bravely take a deep inhale.
The darkened night. I’m not scared. The sky is so grand as if it’s telling me not to cry.

Where will the next page of me go? How much courage will be used?
I’m not scared of all of the storms inside my dreams. They’re all my tests.
The next page of me, wishes to have a beautiful tomorrow.
So this time I bid farewell to the past because I can see (clearly).   

What am I worried about? Just go. I’m so sorry for loving to make people cry.
The past memories are gripped in the palm of my hands.
They let me to work hard no matter how difficult.
Blow by, winds next to my ear. Let me hear the news.
On the journey. Love is oxygen. It lets me feel more and more certain.

My heart is frightened that’s why I ask myself those past words.
Thank you for letting me have the sky and tomorrow. Learning independence.
Standing in the mud of the unknown. Watching me bravely take a deep inhale.
The darkened night. I’m not scared. The sky is so grand as if it’s telling me not to cry.

Where will the next page of me go? How much courage will be used?
I’m not scared of all of the storms inside my dreams. They’re all my tests.
The next page of me, wishes to have a beautiful tomorrow
So this time I bid farewell to the past because I can see (clearly).   

The language is hidden in my heart. Believe it and rush forward.
My road. I will definitely let it bring me to happiness
Just forgot those dreams I’ve already had. Those ten thousandth, maybe.
Don’t need to speak. I am still me, deciding no matter how lonely I will never cry.
Just watch. Even in the giant rain. I will not lose. Please let me learn to mature.

Where will the next page of me go? How much courage will be used?
All of the storms inside my dreams. I’m not scared, they’re all my tests.
The next page of me, wishes to have a beautiful tomorrow.
So today I bid farewell to the past because I can see (clearly). 
All of the storms inside my dreams. I’m not scared, they’re all my tests.
The next page of me, wishes to have a beautiful tomorrow
So this time I bid farewell to the past because I can see (clearly).

Lyric Translation: 24 Billy

To celebrate Wilber Pan's album, THE STORY OF BILLY, which was released today, I have decided to translate the title track, 24 Billy (24個比利). I won't lie, I am actually very surprised by how much I like this song. I loved his 007 album (I even own it) but I was sorely disappointed by 808. It's probably because I am not particularly fond of k-pop (Which is surprising seeing as how most of my friends are obsessed with it) and that album/a lot of other Taiwanese songs are going towards that route so yeah. Anyways, even though 24 Billy contains a lot of k-pop elements I still greatly enjoy it. The beat is kind of repetitive and simple but can still be enjoyed. I have decided the two reasons why I like this song is because...

1) It's about Multiple Personality Disorder which I find particularly fascinating and interesting
2) I love Will Pan and just wanna huggle him because he's my ABC soul brother

Anyways, no matter what the reason is for my like of this song, I have translated it and here it is. Hope you enjoy the song~ (Lyrics are below video)

A note on the lyrics: There are a few parts in which the lyrics are pretty random and it's hard to grasp what Will is trying to say with them, so I've marked those in red. I had my mom look over them and we weren't entirely sure what he was trying to say, so yep. If you have a better clue please comment with a suggested translation and I will look it over and correct accordingly~

我是我 他是我 你是我 那我是誰
我是他 我是你 我是我 那我是誰
我是我 他是我 你是我 那我是誰
我是他 我是你 我是我 那你是誰


體內的細胞正在蠢蠢欲動
不知名的面貌在異度空間領域瞬間轉動
異樣的眼光全都注視著我
不知情的請你小心因為我可能無法承受
太多 太多


比利:這是我的身體但我發現我卻不是唯一
各個個體都在分離幾時幾何幾個聚集在我心底
說什麼是黃金比利
他們分明喜歡角力
如何能共體共存成為唯一的習題
瑞奇:我有個秘密秘密
藏在我的心裡心裡
本尊他毫無詳情不知誰現身的時機
托比:請你不要告密
我隨時會爆發
你看的是我 但你看到並不是我
你面對就是我 但我早就已經就不是我


體內的細胞正在蠢蠢欲動
不知名的面貌在異度空間領域瞬間轉動
異樣的眼光全都注視著我
不知情的請你小心因為我可能無法承受
太多 太多
(GO CRAZY)誰 誰 誰 我到底是誰
(GO CRAZY)誰 誰 誰 我到底是誰


比利:時間幾點幾分當時我到底哪個你 又躲在哪裡
湯米:請你不要再逼我 請相信我聽不懂
馬里:我也都看不清 離開了光明
蘇奇:顛覆了黑夜白天 你的尊重決定我的在場証明


SO 慢慢
抽離開AND GO
或快快
喚醒後自由
誰存活 誰逃脫
我該只屬於一個我


別太多BODY BODY
不要再MOVE MOVE
哭笑 酷肖 苦笑不得
SHOUT SHOUT SHOUT SHOUT


體內的細胞正在蠢蠢欲動
不知名的面貌在異度空間領域瞬間轉動
異樣的眼光全都注視著我
不知情的請你小心因為我可能無法承受
太多 太多
(GO CRAZY)誰 誰 誰 我到底是誰
(GO CRAZY)誰 誰 誰 我到底是誰


我是我 他是我 你是我 那我是誰
我是他 我是你 我是我 那我是誰
我是我 他是我 你是我 那我是誰
我是他 我是你 我是我 那你是誰


(GO CRAZY)誰 誰 誰 我到底是誰
(GO CRAZY)誰 誰 誰 我到底是誰
(GO CRAZY)誰 誰 誰 我到底是誰
(GO CRAZY)誰 誰 誰 我到底是誰

I am me. He is me. You are me. Then who am I?
I am him. I am you. I am me. Then who am I?
I am me. He is me. You are me. Then who am I?
I am him. I am you. I am me. Then who am I?

The cells in my body currently are sluggishly desiring to move
The unknown image in the outer dimensional realm suddenly rotates
The abnormal eyesights are completely focused on me
The knowledgeless ones please be careful because I might  not be able to endure
Too much. Too much.

Billy: This is my body but I discovered It’s not only me
Every individual has been seperated into when to be gathered in my heart
What do you mean by the “Golden Billy”?
They obviously like a trial of strength
How I can coexist in this one body becomes the only assignment
Ricky: I have a secret, secret
Hidden in my heart, heart
I don’t know who will be coming out at what time
Toby: Please don’t spill the secret
I will erupt arbitrarily
The one you are seeing is me, but you are not looking at me
The one you are facing is me, but I am no longer me

The cells in my body currently are sluggishly desiring to move
The unknown image in the outer dimensional realm suddenly rotates
The abnormal eyesights are completely focused on me
The knowledgeless ones please be careful because I might  not be able to endure
Too much. Too much.
(GO CRAZY) Who. Who. Who. Who am I actually?
(GO CRAZY) Who. Who. Who. Who am I actually?

Billy: At whatever time which you am I and where I am hiding?
Tommy: Please don’t force me again. Please believe that I don’t understand.
Mary: I also cannot see clearly. I have left behind the light.  
Szucs: Subvert the night and day. Your respectfulness decides my alibi.

SO slow, slow.
Detach AND GO.
Or fast, fast.
Waking up begets freedom.
Who survives. Who escapes.
There should only be one me that belongs to me.

Don’t have too much BODY BODY
Don’t keep MOVE MOVE
Crying and smiling, it’s all exceedingly similar. Need to force a smile.
SHOUT SHOUT SHOUT SHOUT

The cells in my body currently are sluggishly desiring to move
The unknown image in the outer dimensional realm suddenly rotates
The abnormal eyesights are completely focused on me
The knowledgeless ones please be careful because I might  not be able to endure
Too much. Too much.
(GO CRAZY) Who. Who. Who. Who am I actually?
(GO CRAZY) Who. Who. Who. Who am I actually?

I am me. He is me. You are me. Then who am I?
I am him. I am you. I am me. Then who am I?
I am me. He is me. You are me. Then who am I?
I am him. I am you. I am me. Then who am I?

(GO CRAZY) Who. Who. Who. Who am I actually?
(GO CRAZY) Who. Who. Who. Who am I actually?
(GO CRAZY) Who. Who. Who. Who am I actually?
(GO CRAZY) Who. Who. Who. Who am I actually?
