Do It While You Are Still Young (趁你还年轻)

“Do It While You Are Still Young (趁你还年轻)” is a very popular old song in the late eighties. Hua Chenyu covered this old song in 2013 for a movie called “Up In the Winds”

Starting in 2021, Mars Concert had been upgraded to an outdoor rock festival. Hua put his rock songs in the more exciting Evening Show, and put his early songs and some pop songs in the more relaxed Matinee. This song had also become one of Matinee’s fixed repertoire.

Original Singer: Cheng Lin
趁你还年轻 Do It While You Are Still Young
趁你还不需要翻来覆去考虑又考虑 Do it while you still don’t need to mull things over and over
趁你还不知道 为什么叹气 Do it while you still don’t understand the reason for sighing
趁你还没学会装模作样证明你自己 Do it while you haven’t learned to pretentiously prove yourself
你想什么什么就是你 You are whatever you think of yourself
也许你不相信 Maybe you don’t believe it
你也许没留意 Maybe you have never noticed
有多少人羡慕你 How many people are envious of you
羡慕你年轻 Envious of your youth
这世界属于你 This world belongs to you
只因为你年轻 Just because you are young
你可得要抓得紧 You have to grasp your chances
回头不容易 It will not be easy to come back
你可知道什么原因 有人羡慕你 Do you know why some people are envious of you?
只因为他们曾经也 年轻 It’s just because once they were also young
你可明白什么道理 有人嫉妒你 Do you know why some people are jealous of you?
只因为他们不能 抓得紧 It’s just because they couldn’t grasp their chances
趁你还不需要翻来覆去考虑又考虑 Do it while you still don’t need to mull things over and over
趁你还不知道 为什么叹气 Do it while you still don’t understand the reason for sighing
趁你还没学会装模作样证明你自己 Do it while you haven’t learned to pretentiously prove yourself
你想什么什么就是你 You are whatever you think of yourself
