[Verse 1]
The spring wind came by the tower again last night
I looked up into the moon and recalled old memories
Dreams from the past
Suddenly burst out
A river keeps running though I try to cut it with a blade
Sorrow only deepens though I try to wash it away with wine
Dreams you cast behind
Only leaves you longing even more
[Pre-Chorus]
A dream pursuer shall ride the wind on the journey of searching
Same way as a leaf drifts away from the tree to somewhere distant
It's when you have packed up and are ready
That you realize you don't know what to do
That's when you raise a sincere toast to the sorrow of departure
[Chorus]
A traveler shall know what the cure is for pain
Nothing beats thousands of glasses of wine
Gaze into the expanse of the path before you that awaits exploration
A traveler shall be brave to pursue the dream
Even if the sorrow of departure is ever-deepening
A song will always grant you a reunion with the mountains and rivers
[Verse 2]
Before setting off, drink thousands of glasses of wine
Make toasts to dear friends
As glasses go joyfully around the table
There's no need to speak thoughts out loud
For they're all bittersweet
Let toasts speak on our behalf
A dream pursuer shall drink and appreciate the dance
Make toasts to sun, moon, and stars encapsulated in the glass
Even to the cosmos itself
Keep searching, and you shall gain insights into everything
[Verse 3]
Climb the tower while you're tipsy
Drink and dance with thin sleeves
In a few rounds
Write down a few lines of drunken talks
Gaze into the fierce primal chaos of the universe
Appreciate the vast expanse of cosmos
You and I shall take on this journey together
Among hundreds of boats racing along the river
[Pre-Chorus]
Yesterday who has abandoned me is no longer within my grasp
Today who is irritating me is where all my problems come from
Have this feast before we set off
Even thousands of glasses of wine can't make us stay
We shall be back on our way once we wake up from drunken dreams
[Chorus]
A traveler shall know what the cure is for pain
Nothing beats thousands of glasses of wine
Gaze into the expanse of the path before you that awaits exploration
A traveler shall be brave to pursue the dream
Even if the sorrow of departure is ever-deepening
A song will always grant you a reunion with the mountains and rivers
[Chorus]
A traveler shall know what the cure is for pain
Nothing beats thousands of glasses of wine
Gaze into the expanse of the path before you that awaits exploration
A traveler shall be brave to pursue the dream
Even if the sorrow of departure is ever-deepening
A song will always grant you a reunion with the mountains and rivers
[Chorus]
A traveler shall know what the cure is for pain
Nothing beats thousands of glasses of wine
Gaze into the expanse of the path before you that awaits exploration
A traveler shall be brave to pursue the dream
Even if the sorrow of departure is ever-deepening
A song will always grant you a reunion with the mountains and rivers
