Song Translation

Waves rushing, waves flowing
Like a river torrent travels thousand miles that never rest
A cleanse of worldly news, following the tide
There is happiness and there is Sadness
The waves unable to distinguish between the two
Success, Failure, Waves cannot see if any
Love You, Hate You, I ask of you, once the river torrent explodes cannot be withheld
You can turn a thousand bay and beaches
But unable to calm the conflict within you
Yes there is happiness and sadness
Even if I cannot clearly differentiate between the two
My heart is willing to be succumbed by the thousand waves
