Alena - Lavender (Wei Ni Cun Zai) lyrics with translation

Thursday, 24. April 2008, 06:10:37

, , , ...

Alena is one of Indonesian female singer I respect, She has a very nice voice. She has released a new album "Seindah Diriku" which contains 10 song, 2 of them are mandarin :up:. I think she should just go to Taiwan or Hong Kong and become a mandarin pop singer :smile:

This is the first single of the new album. I found the original pin yin lyrics on her site. Because I wanted to know the meaning of the song, I throw the lyrics to the guys at Chinese Music Blog and as usual they amazingly :wizard: translated it :up:. Thanks to mukei, samthebear and telly

Title : 为你存在 - Wei Ni Cun Zai - To Live For You (Lavender)
Artist : Alena
Compoeser : Ivan "Dong Feng"

从来没有想过 这是对还是错
Cong lai mei you xiang guo, Zhe shi dui hai shi cuo
Never thought about it before, if this is right or wrong

一切的付出到底是为了什么
Yi qie de fu chu dao di shi wei le shen me
Giving it [my] all, what was it for

爱就是像水流 不能断也不肯休
Ai jiu shi xiang shui liu, bu neng duan ye bu ken xiu
Love flows like water, it can’t be stopped, nor is it willing to be stopped

就算世界末日 爱还是存在
Jiu suan shi jie mo ri ai hai shi cun zai
Even if the world ends, love will still remain

我还是在拥抱 你给的每一秒
Wo hai shi zai yong bao, ni gei de mei yi miao
I am still embracing every second you have given

我们彼此都不愿放弃这故事
Wo men bi ci dou bu yuan fang qi zhe gu shi
We are both unwilling to let go of this story

是我太过天真 还是你给的太多
Shi wo tai guo tian zhen, hai shi ni gei de tai duo
Is it me being too naive, or you who has given too much?

让我坚持(勉强?)你的温柔
Rang wo jian chi mian qiang ni de wen rou
Let me insist on your gentleness

我的爱还是在这里永远 不离开
wo de ai hai shi zai zhe li yong yuan bu li kai
My love still remains here forever, it will never leave

是为了你的天真而存在
Shi wei le ni de tian zhen er cun zai
It is because of your innocence that it exists

如果命运让我们在一次相爱
Ru guo ming yun rang wo men zai ci xiang ai
If destiny lets us fall in love again

我不愿放弃 就算要分离
Wo bu yuan fang qi, jiu suan yao fen li
I am not willing to give up even if we have to separate

我的爱是为了你而存在
Wo de ai shi wei le ni er cun zai
My love is because of you that it exists

来生在次相逢
Lai sheng zai ci xiang feng
We shall meet again in our next life

只问世间情为何物
Zhi wen shi jian qing wei he wu
Asking the world what love is,

我不怕等因为你永在我心中
Wo bu pa deng yin wei ni yong zai wo xin zhong
I am not afraid to wait because you will always be in my heart

陪我度过孤独的梦
Pei wo du guo gu du de meng
Accompanying me pass a lonely dream

Reading some local news, some Indonesian ISP have blocked access to youtube. The government has asked ISPs to block sites that have Fitna video. I wonder if indonesian blogs who provide that video will be blocked too.

I won't comment on the video nor the blocking
