歌曲歌詞
英文歌詞
We come to your shores over misty millennia
From hustlers to emperors
For power and pleasure
We carve through the cars
Dance around the Daily News①
Cue in the Grande ballabile
Even your ten-ton tone rings②home forMarco Polo
Slow down
From a thread of sky③
Slow down
To the warp and weft your being④
Slow down
You're beautiful, graceful, like no other
Pretty damned good as you are
Slow down
Friend of mine
Slow down
In a terrible hurry for change
Slow down
As you unravel your marvels
From evergreen gardens⑤
Remember we loved you this way
To treasure it all, scroll out to see
In gold, fire, wood, clay and water⑥
Your structure and flow, adagio to allegro
With leaves to the tide⑦
In full moon, plum blossom⑧, we salute to you
Slow down
From a thread of sky
Slow down
To the warp and weft of your being
Slow down
Dynamic and playful, you opened my eyes yeah
You're pretty damned good as you are
Slow down
Friend of mine
Slow down
Could you go for progression not pace
Slow down
As you unravel your marvels
Don't lose them all on the way
Mantoshan⑨
Slow down
From a thread of sky
Slow down
To the warp and weft of your being
Slow down
You're beautiful, graceful, like no other
Pretty damned good as you are
Slow down
Friend of mine
Slow down
You're in a terrible hurry to change
Slow down
Unravel your marvels, from evergreen gardens
Remember we loved you this way
Whoa, to the warp and weft of your being
You're beautiful, graceful, like no other
P-p-pretty damned good as you are
Xizi she knows that once it's gone, then it's gone
Xizi she knows that once it's gone, then it's gone
Xizi she knows that once it's gone
Then it's gone

中文歌詞
來到你岸邊，我穿越千年迷霧
從遊客到主人，從權利到享受
車流在匆忙，每日新聞起舞
盛大的演出拉開帷幕
放慢腳步
從一線天
到經緯編織的風土
你美麗、優雅，與眾不同，你使人徹底悅目
西子姑娘，匆忙的世界變化無度
當你展現真實自我，在常青園深處，記住我愛你的特殊
珍惜所擁有，開闊眼目
你構架流暢，從柔和到快速
湧起樹葉浪潮
花好月圓之夜，我向你祝福
放慢腳步
從一線天
到經緯編織的風土
充滿動態樂趣，讓我大開眼目，你知道自己與眾不同
西子姑娘，你進步不要追求速度
當你展現真實自我，不要迷失了自我
放慢腳步
從一線天
到經緯編織的風土
你美麗、優雅，與眾不同，你使人徹底悅目
西子姑娘，匆忙的世界變化無度
當你展現真實自我，在常青園深處，記住我愛你的特殊
喔，經緯編織的生活
你寧靜、優雅，與眾不同，你使人徹底悅目
西子知道，消逝如同朝露
