Na Ni De Yi Zhi Li (Take Hold of Your Willpower)
拿你的意志力
By: Yen-j/嚴爵
Album: Not Alone

Translated intro from the lyric book:
"This song is about my values, expressed through a 9-year-old and an African American woman."





拿你的意志力去面對他人的批評
na ni de yi zhi li qu mian dui ta ren de pi ping
Take hold of your willpower to face the criticism of others

帶你的意志力 去做自己 嘿~
dai ni de yi zhi li, qu zuo zi ji
Take your willpower and be yourself

想做的事情 想說的字句
xiang zuo de shi qing, xiang shuo de zi ju
The things you want to do, the things you want to say

像我的詞曲
xiang wo de ci qu
Such as my song and lyrics

喔~想傷我? 想晃我?
Oh, xiang shang wo? xiang huang wo?
Oh, want to hurt me? Want to sway me?

Not that easily


--

想傷我 沒那麼容易
xiang shang wo, mei na me rong yi
Want to hurt me? It's not that easy

能感動到你 是我的榮幸啊
neng gan dong dao ni, shi wo de rong xing
Making you feel touched is my honor

我的一生 話也就這麼幾句
wo de yi sheng, hua ye jiu zhe me ji ju
My whole life, this is what I've said

你願意聽 是我的福氣
ni yuan yi ting, shi wo de fu qi
If you're willing to listen, it's my fortune

Story從這裡開始繼續…
Story cong zhe li kai shi ji xu
The story starts and continues from here

我最怕叫了高級壽司 卻來不及吃
wo zui pa jiao liao gao ji shou si, que lai bu ji chi
I'm most afraid of calling for fancy sushi but being too late to eat it

這是個比喻 聽得懂
zhe shi ge bi yu, ting de dong
This is a metaphor, do you understand it?

跟你旁邊那位解釋
gen ni pang bian na wei jie shi
I'll give you the literal explanation

引來異樣的眼光時姑且先
yin lai yi yang de yan guang shi gu qie xian
Tentatively attracting strange looks at first

相信你我也能創造傳奇像五月天
xiang xin ni wo ye neng chuang zao chuan qi xiang wu yue tian
I believe you and I can also create a legend like Mayday's

(嚴爵你想太多)
(Yan Jue ni xiang tai duo)
(Yen-j, you think too much)

我的經紀人常對我說我想太多
wo de jing ji ren, chang dui wo shuo wo xiang tai duo
My broker always tells me I think too much

但是太多人想太少這話不算講太過
dan shi tai duo ren xiang tai shao zhe hua bu suan jiang tai guo
But too many people think too little; Saying this shouldn't be too much

當我說出這句話時你是不是搶拍手
dang wo shuo zhe zhe ju hua shi ni shi bu shi qiang pai shou
When I say this sentence do you rush to applaud?

因為我們同樣無奈 只是我第一個張開口
yin wei wo men tong yang wu nai, zhi shi wo di yi ge zhang kai kou
Because we're both frustrated, it's just that I was first to speak

拿你的意志力去面對他人的批評
na ni de yi zhi li qu mian dui ta ren de pi ping
Take hold of your willpower to face the criticism of others

帶你的意志力 去做自己 嘿~
dai ni de yi zhi li, qu zuo zi ji
Take your willpower and be yourself

想做的事情 想說的字句
xiang zuo de shi qing, xiang shuo de zi ju
The things you want to do, the things you want to say

像我的詞曲
xiang wo de ci qu

喔~想傷我? 想晃我?
Oh, xiang shang wo? xiang huang wo?
Oh, want to hurt me? Want to sway me?

不需要是天才 才算得出來
bu xu yao shi tian cai, cai suan de chu lai,
You don't have to be a genius to guess it

來頭不小的人 才不等於一個”人才”
lai tou bu xiao de ren, cai bu deng yu yi ge "ren cai"
Plenty of backing does not make "talent"

但我們不去計較這些小菜 因為我們可以做"地才"
dan wo men bu qu ji jiao zhe xie xiao cai yin wei wo men ke yi zuo "di cai"
But let's not fight over these small things, because we can take steps

只要比別人努力 就不怕自己沒有能力
zhi yao bi bie ren nu li, jiu bu pa zi ji mei you neng li
So long as you work harder than others, you needn't worry about having what it takes

追尋偉大一點的夢 讓他人開心
zhui xun wei da yi dian de meng, rang ta ren kai xin
Chase bigger dreams, make them all happy

甚至撫平他人的痛 又不是什麼革命呀
shen zhi fu ping ta ren de tong, you bu shi shen me ge ming ya
So much that you heal their pain; It's not some revolution

我所知的革命情感是 跟媽媽
wo suo zhi de ge ming qing gan shi, gen ma ma
All the feelings of revolution I know is with my Mom

奇蹟就在我們身旁圍繞 只是看你看不看得到
qi ji jiu zai wo men shen pang wei rao, zhi shi kan ni kan bu kan de dao
Miracles are revolving around us, it's just whether you can see it

只是看你看到後要不要
zhi shi kan ni kan dao hou yao bu yao
It's just when you see it, will you want it

只是看你追尋時候意志力高不高
zhi shi kan ni zhui xun shi hou yi zhi li gao bu gao
It's just when you're going for it, will your willpower be strong enough

因為“看到”跟“得到”之間的艱苦是要
yin wei "kan dao" gen "de dao" zhi jian de jian ku shi yao
Because the difficult difference between "see" and "achieve" is to:

拿你的意志力去面對他人的批評
na ni de yi zhi li qu mian dui ta ren de pi ping
Take hold of your willpower to face the criticism of others

帶你的意志力 去做自己 嘿~
dai ni de yi zhi li, qu zuo zi ji
Take your willpower and be yourself

想做的事情 想說的字句
xiang zuo de shi qing, xiang shuo de zi ju
The things you want to do, the things you want to say

Oh, xiang shang wo? xiang huang wo?
Oh, want to hurt me? Want to sway me?
