Jay Chou "Fragrant Rice" 稻香


Link

Now now, this is a song worth to be mentioned, Jay Chou's new album hits song. 
I think the song goes well with the MV here, it's just suit the story nicely.

The lyric is the best part of the song, you can read it below, with translation.

Lyrics:
對這個世界如果你有太多的抱怨
dui zhe ge shi jie ru guo ni you tai duo de bao yuan
If you have too many complaints towards this world,

跌倒了就不敢繼續往前走
die dao le jiu bu gan ji xu wang qian zou
Having fallen, you lose the courage to go on

為什麼人要這麼的脆弱 墮落
wei shen me ren yao zhe me de cui ruo duo luo
Why do people want to be so weak and fallen?

請你打開電視看看
qing ni da kai dian shi kan kan
Please turn on the television now and see for yourself

多少人為生命在努力勇敢的走下去
duo shao ren wei sheng ming zai nu li yong gan de zou xia qu
So many people bravely fighting for their lives

我們是不是該知足
wo men shi bu shi gai zhi zu
Shouldn't we be content,

珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有
zhen xi yi qie jiu suan mei you yong you
Cherish all we have, even if we don't possess them

*還記得你說家是唯一的城堡 
hai ji de ni shuo jia shi wei yi de cheng bao
I still remember you said home is your only castle

 隨著稻香河流繼續奔跑
sui zhe dao xiang he liu ji xu ben pao
Following the paddy fragrance, the flowing stream, I continued running

 微微笑 小時候的夢我知道
wei wei xiao xiao shi hou de meng wo zhi dao
Smile, I know the childhood dreams


 不要哭讓螢火蟲帶著你逃跑 
bu yao ku rang ying huo chong dai zhe ni tao pao
Don't cry, let the fireflies take you away, escaping

 鄉間的歌謠永遠的依靠
xiang jian de ge yao yong yuan de yi kao
You will always find serenity in folk songs

 回家吧 回到最初的美好*
hui jia ba hui dao zui chu de mei hao
Go home, return to the sweet past

不要這麼容易就想放棄 就像我說的
bu yao zhe me rong yi jiu xiang fang qi jiu xiang wo shuo de
Don't give up so easily, just like what I said,

追不到的夢想 換個夢不就得了
zhui bu dao de meng xiang huan ge meng bu jiu de liao
If the dream can't be reached, then just follow another dream

為自己的人生鮮艷上色 
wei zi ji de ren sheng xian yan shang se
Add bright colours to your own life

先把愛塗上喜歡的顏色
xian ba ai tu shang xi huan de yan se
Paint LOVE in your favourite colour

笑一個吧 功成名就不是目的
xiao yi ge ba gong cheng ming jiu bu shi mu di
Smile, fame and success isn't the aim

讓自己快樂快樂這才叫做意義
rang zi ji kuai le kuai le zhe cai jiao zuo yi yi
Be happy. That is the whole meaning

@ 童年的紙飛機 現在終於飛回我手裡
tong niang de zhi fei ji xian zai zhong yu fei hui wo shou li
(Just like how) I finally found my lost childhood innocence

#所謂的那快樂 赤腳在田裡追蜻蜓追到累了
suo wei de na kuai le chi jiao zai tian li zhui qing ting zhui dao lei le
What is happiness? It's chasing dragonflies in the fields barefooted till we're exhausted

 偷摘水果被蜜蜂給叮到怕了 誰在偷笑呢
tou zhai shui guo bei mi feng gei ding dao pa le shui zai tou xiao ne
Tried to steal fruits but suffered so much beestungs until i am scared. Who's snickering (at me)?

 我靠著稻草人吹著風唱著歌睡著了
wo kao zhe dao cao ren chui zhe feng chang zhe ge shui zhao le
Leaning against the scarecrow, enjoying the wind, singing songs till I fall asleep

 哦 哦 午後吉他在蟲鳴中更清脆
o o wu hou ji ta zai chong ming zhong geng qing cui
Oh~ Oh~ In the afternoon, the guitar chords sound more crisp amidst the cries of the insects

 哦 哦 陽光灑在路上就不怕心碎
o o yang guang sa zai lu shang jiu bu pa xin sui
Oh~ Oh~ The sunlight shines on the road so there's no need to fear a heartbreak

 珍惜一切 就算沒有擁有#
zhen xi yi qie jiu suan mei you yong you
Cherish everything, even if we don't possess them



Life is difficult nowadays, so I really appreciate artists would make use of their talent to cheer people up, and this time Jay did it nicely here.
