Chinese Rock Song Translation 《死了都要爱》 - Love to the end.

For an online recording of the song click &cat=0&gate=1&ct=134217728&tn=baidumt,%CB%C0%C1%CB%B6%BC%D2%AA%B0%AE++&si=%CB%C0%C1%CB%B6%BC%D2%AA%B0%AE;;%D0%C5%C0%D6%CD%C5;;16180;;16180&lm=-1&mtid=3&d=7&size=1048576&attr=0,0&titlekey=44891233,2340000404&mtype=1"]HERE

As the title suggests this song is all about giving love your all. I posted the 信乐团 version, who are arguably the biggest and most influential rock band in Taiwan and mainland China.

死了都要爱......................Love to the end,

不淋漓尽致不痛快.................Head first, it’s all or nothing,

感情多深只有这样.................Only in depths of emotion,

才足够表白......................Can love really be expressed.

死了都要爱......................Love to the end,

不哭到微笑不痛快.................Cry till you smile, It’s all or nothing

宇宙毁灭心还在...................At the end of the universe love still exists

把每天当成是末日来相爱............Love like it is your last day on earth

一分一秒都美到泪水掉下来..........Every minute, every second cherish till you cry

不理会别人是看好或看坏............Forget about everyone else

只要你勇敢跟我来.................Be brave and walk with me

爱 不用刻意安排..................Love, doesn’t need to be well planned

凭感觉去亲吻相拥就会很愉快.........All you need is love and you’ll always be happy

享受现在 别一开怀就怕受伤害........Live the moment, pretend like you’ve never been hurt

许多奇迹我们相信才会存在...........Miracles can happen

穷途末路都要爱...................Everyone needs love

不极度浪漫不痛快.................Without romance you can’t have happiness

发会雪白 土会掩埋................It might snow a blizzard, or the earth might slide

思念不腐坏......................But memories don’t wither

到绝路都要爱....................To the end you have no choice but love

不天荒地老不痛快.................If it’s not for forever, it’s not happiness

不怕热爱变火海...................Do not fear the passion will burn out

爱到沸腾才精采...................Love till it hurts, that is true love

=====================================================================================================================================================

While I encourage any questions, 'quires and qualms, my hope is that rather than simple criticism, we instead make constructive suggestions with specific examples.

My initial words are not the end all, but rather the instigation of further creation.

I think these lines might need some improvements -

发会雪白 = hair will turn snow white (nothing to do with blizzards)

凭感觉去亲吻相拥就会很愉快 - shouldn't feelings, kisses and embraces be mentioned instead of just "love" all the time?

PS - 发会雪白 土会掩埋, as I read it, means that one will grow old (hair turns white) and die (buried), and of course will then rot; BUT 思念, it does not wither.
