Lyrics: Cangyang Jiatso Composer: Gonu
Sung by Ni Erping
That day
I closed my eyes in the incense and mist of the temple
I heard the true words of the sutra in your hymns
That January
I shook all the sutra cylinders
Not for the sake of transcendence
Only to touch the tip of your finger. Just to touch your fingertips
That year
Knocking my head long and prostrate on the mountain path
Not to have an audience
Just to be close to your warmth
That life
Turning the mountains and the water and the stupa
Not to practice for the next life
Only to meet you on the way
That month
I lightly I turned all the merry-go-rounds
Not for the sake of transcendence
Just to touch your fingerprints
That year I bowed my long head and embraced the dust
Not for the sake of pilgrimage to the Buddha
Just to press against the warmth of your body
That life I climbed over a hundred thousand mountains
Not for the sake of repairing the afterlife
Just to meet you on the way
Just That night
I forgot everything
I threw away my beliefs and gave up my reincarnation
In that life, I climbed a hundred thousand mountains
Not to repair the next life
Just to meet you on the road
It was just that night
I forgot everything
To throw away my beliefs and give up reincarnation
Only because I had once cried before the Buddha. Just for the rose that used to cry in front of the Buddha
has lost its old luster
