I want to say thank you. Thank you
For raising me to be the person I am today,
For all the values you have taught me about life,
For all the tender loving care you have showered upon me,
For your unwavering support of my endeavours in school and work,
For creating some of the most beautiful memories of my so-called life.
菊花灿烂地烧 你的笑容已泛黄
花落人断肠 我心事静静躺
被风乱 也微摇 你的影子剪不断
独留我孤单 在湖面神伤
I am upset. I am upset
That I can no longer repay all your kindness,
That I cannot buy you and grandpa your favourite foods,
That I will come home each time to the flat unable to see your gracious face,
That I will now have to trudge on in life without your physical presence.
把我的悲伤留给自己你的美丽让你带走
从此以后我再没有快乐起来的理由
我想我可以忍住悲伤可不可以你也会想起我
But I want to feel happy for you. Happy
That you are no longer bedridden and suffering,
That you have now joined grandpa in the afterlife,
That you and grandpa will be looking out for me from the heavens above.
I don’t want to say goodbye. I just want to say thank you.
In fact, I will never be able to thank you enough.
