chinese lyric with hanyu pinyin romanization

(男)
为了你          修长身影     海鸥盘旋
wei le ni / xiu chang shen ying/ hai ou pan xuan
为了你          潮汐的脸     始终绵延
wei le ni / chao xi de lian / shi zhong man yan
任凭那          海浪轻舔     纵然是          海风抱怨
ren ping na / hai lang qing tian / zong ran shi / hai feng bao yuan
你依然          静静地佇立             凛然不变
ni yi ran / jing jing di zhu li / lin ran bu bian
 
(女)
目送过          恍如轻愁     渔火点点
mu song guo / huang ru qing chou / yu huo dian dian
眺望著          缓如归期     帆影万千
tiao wang zhe / huan ru gui qi / fan ying wan qian
海的话          无限潋艳     来復去          永不兑现
hai de hua / wu xian lian yan /lai fu qu / yong bu dui xian
你始终          悠悠地佇立             毫不埋怨
ni shi zhong / you you di zhu li / hao bu mai yuan
 
(男)
款款深情     不露痕迹
kuan kuan shen qing / bu lu heng ji
(女)
坚毅不屈     面对风雨
jian yi bu qu / mian dui feng yu
(合)
长发飞舞     明珠坠地
chang fa fei wu / ming zhu zhui di
却从不曾叹息
que chong bu ceng tan xi
 
(合)
迷航中          你是我的     唯一指引
mi hang zhong / ni shi wo de / wei yi zhi ying
孤单中          你是我的     远方慰藉
gu dan zhong / ni shi wo de / yuan feng wei jie 
(女)
海天中          给我信心
hai tian zhong / gei wo xin xin
(男)
你的爱          永不迁移
ni de ai / yong bu qian yi
(合)
最难忘          是你那修长             美丽倒影
zui nan wang / shi ni na xiu chang / mei li dao ying
 
"straight" english translation

(m)

just for your / slender figure / seagulls circle

just for you / the face of the tide / always stretches on

let the / waves lick gently / even if / the sea breeze complains

you still / stand quietly / awe-inspiring and unchanged

(f)

my eyes watch it pass / a light sorrow / the dotted fires of fishing boats
looking out / slow as the date of returning home / thousands of sails and shadows
the words of the sea / are infinitely beautiful / come and go / and never come true
you always / stand leisurely / without complaining

(m)

deep affections / that leave no trace
(f)

resolute and unyielding / in the face of wind and rain
(both)

long hair flying / pearls falling to the ground

but never a sigh

(both)

in this lost journey / you are my / only guide

in loneliness / you are my / comfort :{m afar
(f)

between sea and sky / you give me confidence
(m)

your love / never migrates
(both)

most unforgettable / is your slender /and beautiful reflection
