别哭

Hey, little girl,

Hey, girl,

Outside you say 'whatever', but inside the sound of crying echoes,

I know, outwardly you say it doesn't matter, but inside you are weeping.

Your boyfriend heard your laughter, your teddy bear heard your crying,

Your smile belongs to him but your sorrow can only be poured out to your doll.

You used to like his personality and his way of walking,

You used to like his temper and every word and deed.

But you got bored of him comparing you with other girls,

But you have had enough of him comparing you to other girls.

You thought even fights in love were sweet,

You thought disputes and quarrels in love were sweet.

Thinking 'does he care?', you got angry for reason or no reason,

Feeling he didn't care about you, so you often got angry for no reason.

You said 'Every time he should look for me because I am a girl',

You think "I am a girl, so he should take the initiative to find me first".

But he had no business with you, yet you looked for him again,

But he doesn't care about you at all, so helplessly you go to find him.

He said 'I tied my heart to you', in the invisible empty field,

He once told you "My heart belongs to you", but the person who said this is now gone without a trace.

Now you miss him, he is busy playing in the internet cafe,

Now you miss him very much, but he has no time to accompany you because he is stuck in the internet cafe.

In your memory he used to wait for you in front of the building every day,

In your memory, he would wait downstairs for you every day.

But now, two hours late, he cleans himself up as if he didn't like it,

But now it seems meaningful to be with you; he finds excuses even for being two hours late.

As if your mind and intellect couldn't win over your emotions,

As if your intelligence and attention can't defeat your current emotions.

He still left, just as you couldn't hold onto water,

He still left, just like you can't grasp flowing water.

Regret stitched the wound in your heart,

The trauma in your heart is already buried by regret.

He rushed into your life and now he rushed out,

He hurriedly walked into your life and hurriedly left in the end.

Don't cry little girl, no one will say you are stone-hearted,

Don't cry, girl! No one will say your heart is made of iron.

Don't cry little girl, later when he sees you he will be confused,

Don't cry, girl! Later when he sees you he will be incoherent.

Pass through the pains, give yourself a hug,

(Hope you) survive this pain, give yourself comfort.

Don't cry little girl, no one is worth your tears,

Don't cry, girl! No one is worth your tears.

Don't cry little girl, no one will say you are stone-hearted,

Don't cry, girl! No one will say your heart is made of iron.

Don't cry little girl, later when he sees you he will be confused,

Don't cry, girl! Later when he sees you he will be incoherent.

Pass through the pains, give yourself a hug,

(Hope you) survive this pain, give yourself comfort.

Don't cry little girl, no one is worth your tears.

Don't cry, girl! No one is worth your tears.

Your friends used to envy you, thinking he was your breath,

Your friends used to envy how he was your life.

Longing for him became a cage for your life,

Your longing for him trapped you inside like a cage.

You whispered his name, he should have shouted yours,

You called his name every moment, expecting him to make up for what you lost for him.

You want to go back to his side, but he should apologize to you,

You want to return to him, but first he should apologize.

You endured the pain, but endurance has run its course,

Pain needs endurance, but endurance has a limit.

You returned the ring, but the mark of the ring remained on your hand,

You returned the ring to him but the ring's mark remained on your hand.

Like on cold nights, a part of your blanket is open,

Like in winter, your quilt is lifted somewhere.

You say 'I am fine', but a part of your heart feels cracked,

You say 'I am fine', but it feels like something is missing in your heart.

'If I am busy I will forget', your choice is minimal wisdom,

You say "As long as I keep busy I will forget", this is a wise choice.

'If it's in my fate he will return', saying this is comfort to yourself,

You keep comforting yourself: "If I am in his heart, he will come back".

Many times when you fell, you fixed your own heart,

After many pains, you calmed yourself down, self-comforting.

Don't forget, before meeting him you lived a good life too,

But don't forget, you lived happily before you met him too.

Life is like this, various molds for various matters,

Life is like this, full of variety and impermanence.

Fate is like this, it gives by itself and takes away by itself,

Destiny is the same; what fate gives you, it takes away from your hands again.

If your bud has fallen now, don't let the flower dry up,

Now the bud has withered but you must still bloom.

I won't say 'laugh now', but don't forget to laugh,

I don't ask you to smile now, but you must not forget to smile.

Don't cry little girl, no one will say you are stone-hearted,

Don't cry, girl! No one is worth your tears.

Don't cry little girl, later when he sees you he will be confused,

Don't cry, girl! Later when he sees you he will be incoherent.

Pass through the pains, give yourself a hug,

(Hope you) survive this pain, give yourself comfort.

Don't cry little girl, no one is worth your tears,

Don't cry, girl! No one is worth your tears.

Don't cry little girl, no one will say you are stone-hearted,

Don't cry girl! No one will say your heart is iron.

Don't cry little girl, later when he sees you he will be confused,

Don't cry girl! Later when he sees you he will be incoherent.

Pass through the pains, give yourself a hug,

(Hope you) survive this pain, give yourself comfort.

Don't cry little girl, no one is worth your tears.

Don't cry girl! No one is worth your tears.
