The Garden of Memory
(Gei Yik Dik Fa Yuen)
Mandarin

Album: Leon Beijing Station
Track: 9
Translated by Jessie Sun


We let go of our hatred.
Gradually we don't know what is right and what is not anymore.
Don't ask.
Don't think.
Don't chase.
Don't be possessive.
Don't look at what was left behind.
A heart that won't let go will be crushed.
No matter how far you run,
no matter how tired you are,
no one can take place of anyone from the past.

* Those that let tears fall because of love.
Those tears have now fallen into the garden of memory,
which have grown into roses.
But we can only say goodbye now.
Although in the heart, there is a place to keep the memories.
Like in the dream,
tears have fallen into the garden of memory,
which keeps track of all happiness and sorrow.
The true heart will live on. *

Distance allows love to become sweet,
and slowly allows us to know that it can be beautiful.
Don't ask.
Don't think.
Don't chase.
Don't be possessive.
Don't look at pain as it is.
That is where the ending is.
With a slight smile,
a tap on the shoulder,
the map of love has found a new place to go.

Repeat  * *
