失眠了 Lyrics Translation – 吴琳珂moske
The narrator mentions a half-smoked cigarette and a pair of slippers, painting a vivid picture of memories lingering in an empty room. ‘Why are you afraid to take that step forward?’ she asks, capturing the hesitation of two people who can’t admit their feelings. The rain outside becomes a perfect excuse to stay, yet the silence remains.
Fangjianli liule bangen ni chouguo de yanThere’s half a cigarette you smoked left in the room,
You yisisitianand it still carries a hint of sweetness.
Menkou baifang de nashuang chuanguo de tuoxieBy the door, there’s the pair of slippers you wore;
