Oh, let me change the passing time,

and say goodbye for one last time.

 

Let the second last one moment longer,

so that I may wish upon the falling star.

 

Let the minute stay a while longer,

so that I may outrun the approaching darkness.

 

Let the hour not fly any further,

so that I may record the fleeing laughter.

 

Let the day not advance any further,

and let dawn stay to keep dusk away.

 

Let the months stop altogether,

so that I can stop and remember.

 

Let the year run eternally,

so that I can stop and see those around me .

 

Let time stop for just a second more,

and delay the arrival of parting ways.
