我不去想是否能够成功
既然选择了远方
便只顾风雨兼程
I don’t want to consider
If I’ll be able to succeed.
Since I’ve decided to go to a distant place,
I’ll try my best to make the trip.
我不去想能否赢得爱情
既然钟情于玫瑰
就勇敢地吐露真诚
I don’t want to consider
If I’ll be able to obtain love.
Since I’m deep in love with roses,
I’ll show my sincerity boldly.
我不去想身后会不会袭来寒风冷雨
既然目标是地平线
留给世界的只能是背影
I don’t want to consider
If I’ll meet with the cold wind and rain.
Since my destination is the horizon,
I’ll leave a deep impression on the Earth.
我不去想未来是平坦还是泥泞
只要热爱生命
一切,都在意料中
I don’t want to consider
If my future will be smooth or bumpy.
If only I love my life,
Everything is to be expected.
