Photo after photo,
Carefully perused as graduation nears.
How much time is captured in these albums!
Before the photos, I’m filled with tears,
While inside the photos, I’m filled with laughter and joy.

Only in that small world,
Can I forever spend time with friends,
Forever laugh, forever be free,
Forever enveloped in a warm glow of enthusiasm.

Flipping through the album, unearthing memories,
I realise that the beauty of reminiscence needs no embellishment.
Every encounter,
Has planted seeds in our lives.

Some merely passed by,
Others weathered storms and seasons,
From strangers to acquaintances to dear friends,
The world is full of coincidences!

Every encounter plants a seed,
Every shared moment nurtures new sprouts with rain.
The growth of these sprouts needs both storms and seasons,
And the beautiful blossoms and the sweet fruit
are so irresistible and savored again and again.

Let’s not speak of farewells, not speak of parting!
So much laughter and joy
will now only exist in photos and dreams!

At sunset,
I will beg you to leave me your radiance.
I wish to be forever illuminated by you,
Even if it’s just the distant twinkle of stars.

一张张照片
在快毕业时才细致的翻阅
多少的时光在相册里定格
相片前的我看的泪眼蒙蒙
相片里的我还在谈笑风生

只有在那小世界里，
才能永远与朋友一起度过
才能永远欢笑，永远自由
永远被热情的光环所笼罩

一边看着相册，一边挖掘着记忆
原来回忆的美丽无需装点
原来每一次的相遇，
都在我们的生活里埋下了种子

亦或者擦然而过
亦或者经历风雨，走过了四季
从陌生人，到熟人，到至亲的朋友
世界充满了巧合！

原来每一次相遇都是种下的一粒种子
原来共同的时光都是雨水滋润出新芽
原来新芽的成长需要风雨和四季
而成长的花开，结下的果实
是如此的甜美，
如此禁不住一次次回味。

莫谈离别，莫谈离别，莫谈离别！
多少的欢声笑语
将只能在相片和梦境里重现！

在日落时分
我将一遍遍渴求留下你的光华
我愿永远被你照耀
即使是遥远的星光
