The Furthest Distance in the world—Tagore
The furthest distance in the world
is not the way from birth to the end.
It is when I stand in front of you
but you don't understand I love you.
The furthest distance in the world
is not when I stand in front of you
you don't know I love you
It is when my love is bewildering the soul
but I can’t speak it out
The furthest distance in the world
is not that I can’t say I love you.
It is after missing you deeply into my heart
I only can bury it in my heart
The furthest distance in the world
is no that I can't say to you I miss you·
It is when we are falling in love
but we can't stay nearby
The furthest distance in the world
is not we love each other
but can't stay together
It is we know our true love is breaking
through the way
we tum a blind eye to it
So the furthest distance in the world
is not in two distant trees
It is the same rooted branches
but can't depend on each other in the wind
The furthest distance in the world
is not can't depend on each other in the wind
It is in the blinking stars who only can look
with each other
but their trade intersect.
The furthest distance in the world
is not in the blinking stars who only can look
with each other
It is after the intersection
but they can’t be found from then on afar
The furthest distance in the world
is not the light that is fading away.
It is the coincidence of us
is not supposed for the love.
The furthest distance in the world
is not love between the bird and fish.
One is flying in the sky,
the other is looking upon into the sea.

世上最遙遠的距離
世上最遙遠的距離
不是生與死之隔
而是我在你面前
你卻不知我對你的情意
世上最遙遠的距離
不是我在你面前
你不知我對你的情意
而是傾注了靈魂去愛
卻無能將情意說出口
世上最遙遠的距離
不是無能將情意說出口
而是思念在心底鼓動
卻也只能將之埋藏在心中
世上最遙遠的距離
不是只能將思念埋藏在心中
而是沉醉在愛河當下
卻不能隨侍在彼此身旁
世上最遙遠的距離
不是彼此相愛
卻無法互相陪伴
而是當真愛突破重圍而來時
我們卻選擇視而不見
所以世上最遙遠的距離
不是兩棵遙遙相望的樹
而是雖是同源枝條
卻不能在冷冽風中互相依傍
世上最遙遠的距離
不是無法在冷冽風中互相依傍
而是在璀璨群星中相望
卻只能失之交臂
世上最遙遠的距離
不是只能相望於璀璨群星中
而是在失之交臂後
從此再無交集
世上最遙遠的距離
不是稍縱即逝的白日
而是擁有著心有靈犀的默契
卻無法相愛
世上最遙遠的距離
是鳥與魚之愛
一個翱翔於天際間
一個只能在海中抬頭仰望
