Endless Skies

“My Dear” by Suxi Ren - You will cross the mountains and see endless skies
“亲爱的你啊” 任素汐 - 你会翻过山 看到万丈晴天
Feel free to press play and let the music accompany you as you read.
A couple weeks ago, I learned a song that moved something in me. The lyrics felt like a quiet conversation with the younger version of myself - one who once stood in silence, carrying confusion, fear, and the longing to grow wings and fly far.
“You will cross the mountains and see endless skies…”
This line stays with me. It reminds me that healing isn’t loud - it’s steady. That no matter how heavy it feels now, one day we’ll look back and realize: we made it through. And the view will be worth it.
If you’re walking through the fog, I hope this song brings you a little warmth and light. Even the mud we thought we couldn’t walk out of will one day feel light and far away.
Lyrics Translation:
My dear you,
It’s been so long since we last met,
Have you grown up a little bit?
The tattered past,
And the fishing bay we couldn’t escape,
Still lie beneath the wild, overgrown weeds.
Back then at home,
Mom would always hide her face,
While the smell of liquor drifted in from outside the window,
You thought, you planned,
To forget all those dazzling wounds,
And grow wings to fly far away.
Loneliness circles your longing, and restlessness flows,
Each step, each night, treads on a nightmare.
You will cross the mountain and see endless skies,
As birds soar across the sea.
You’ll face the wind, sing your heart out,
And take in every view along the way.
You will cross the mountain and see vast plains,
As sunlight pierces through the clouds.
You’ll clench your fists, bare your feet, sweat and strive,
To overcome every obstacle in your path.
Outside the window, a child,
Humming softly, the sound of water sways,
As a boat slowly drifts away.
<亲爱的你啊> 任素汐
亲爱的你啊
我们好久没见
有没有长大一点
破旧的以前
走不出的渔湾
停在荒草漫天
那时家里面
妈妈总在掩面
窗外酒气弥漫
你想你打算
忘掉满身斑斓
长出翅膀飞远
孤单绕着思念 流淌着的不安
每一步每一晚 踩住了 梦魇
你会翻过山 看到万丈晴天
飞鸟正越过海面
你会迎着风 放着胆唱着歌
把风景都看遍
你会翻过山 看到万丈晴天
飞鸟正越过海面
你会迎着风 放着胆唱着歌
把风景都看遍
你会翻过山看到万里平原
天光正穿过云间
你会握着拳赤着脚流着汗
攀过千难万险
窗外 有小孩
哼哼唱 水声荡
远去了一只船
