If You Can Be Relied On

If You Can Be Relied On

By Zhou Kenan

If you can be proud

I’d like to be a bird

Flying through lightning and storms

To the ends of the earth

If you can take pride

I’d like to be a flame

Even if I’m turned to ashes

I won’t hesitate to burn myself

If you can be free and unfettered

I’d like to be a blade of grass

Saying goodbye to my hometown in autumn

And floating afar with you in the wind

If you could smile

I'd like to be a ballad

Letting melodiousness linger in the ears

Every intoxicated night

If you can be relied on

I’ll give you a hug

We’ll grow old together slowly

Watching the sunset on every hugging day
