The Book of All Things: Born for Joy

Besides "Like a Dream," there is also a song by Zhou Shen called "Borrowing a Dream":

Borrow a moment of darkness, a fleeting firework, and half of a lucid dream from me.

Knowing that fate has no right or wrong, and that deep affection has no cause or effect.

Little did I know that you came on the day the snow fell.

How much sacrifice is needed to exchange for one's other half?

I thought letting go was the best choice for reminiscing.

Lend me a wisp of wind to chase after an unsolvable dream.

But it drifts away when the snow falls.

Ah~~

How much are you willing to give up?

It's worth it to exchange your other half

I thought letting go was the best choice for reminiscing.

Lend me a wisp of wind

Go chase the unsolvable dream

But it drifts away when the snow falls.

Ah~~

Li Zichun's singing skills have become increasingly refined, and his voice carries a thick, inescapable sense of destiny that makes people's hearts tremble, as if their whole being is about to shatter at any moment.

Similarly, there's "If Dreams" from Zhou Shen's "Song with You":

Life is but a dream, how much joy can it hold?

The wind sways and the rain falls, where can this heart find rest? Swords rise and knives slash, yet this cause and effect cannot be severed.

The world is vast and indifferent.

Desolate worldly ties, what can fate do?

As the sun rises and the moon sets, this life remains unforgettable; even the mighty horses and clashing swords cannot shatter the fire in my heart.

Memories of the past, old dreams, let the years wear them away.

The past flows in your eyes

Forgetting and piecing together

If I fold my hands devoutly

I only wish you could be saved

Love is but a dream, how long can it last? A cold night falls, I drink alone, swallowing bitterness.

We drink and sing, yet we can't escape the lock on our hearts.

May tranquility enter my dreams and accompany my heart to its resting place.

......"

After Li Zichun finished singing, he stood up and went to the center of the stage, smiling as he said, "These are the last two songs. They are some of my favorite songs, and I hope you all like them too."

After saying that, as the big screen flashed, the song "A Dream" began to play:

We've all made promises to each other when we were lonely.

We are all tired of life because of the torment it brings.

How long will this kind of life, this same way, continue?

We changed our attitude and accepted the other party.

Whose dream did we sacrifice for?

It doesn't matter how many of these days are left.

I often think of the tenderness of the past.

It keeps me warm at night.

You said a person's beauty is earnestness.

It's fate that two people can be together.

If I had known it would turn out like this, like a dream, I wouldn't have placed all my love in one place. I can forgive your absurdity; the absurdity is that I can't forget.

If I had known it would be like this, like a dream, why would I have kept my tears hidden? Let you go crazy, let you be wild, let you be strong in a place without me.

......

Let me heal in a place without you.

The song "A Dream" was sung by singer Na Ying in 1999 as an interlude for the TV series "News Miss", and it is one of Na Ying's most representative works.

Many times, many things feel like a dream, coming and going quickly, as if we never experienced them, yet the warmth remains in our hearts. Even if it's just a dream, let's cherish it and create beautiful memories.

Li Zichun originally intended this song to be the last one, but then he thought of two other songs and moved it forward.

Because the song he was going to sing next was "My Dream" by Jane Zhang:

Keep walking forward, in a crazy world.

Facing the pain, I entrust all the dreams in my eyes to time.

If you want to fly, then fly wholeheartedly. Everyone experiences setbacks.

I think I'll ignore the gray of disappointment and embrace the beauty of regret.

My dream says, don't linger or wait.

Let the light reflect through my tear-filled eyes, revealing the rainbow I most long for in my heart, carrying me to the sky where you are, because you are my dream, my dream.

Persistent, courageous, and never looking back.

Crossing the night and stepping across the border

Passing through rain and wind, rushing forward.

One day I will stand by your side

Let the tears fall, splashing the beauty of the wound.

Oh, don't think that what you've lost is the most precious, that's why you waste today. My dream says, don't linger or wait.

......

No matter how the world changes, it will not be an accident.

Remember to answer the wonderful questions of fate with your heart.

No matter how the world changes, it cannot be separated from love.

Remember the conversations we had as children; bravely say, "I will wait no more."

......"

As the song ended, all the lights in the venue came on, and everyone knew that the concert was coming to an end. No matter how reluctant they were to leave, it was time to go.

All the staff members went on stage and sang the last song with the five celebrities.

"The ten songs have come to an end. I don't know if I will see everyone here again. I wish you all a smooth journey in pursuing your dreams. Let me present this last song."

So at the end of the concert, Li Zichun, along with Zhao Qianfan, Du Zihua, Li Jiawei, and Sun Xiaoling, sang "My Future Is Not a Dream" with all the staff:

Are you like me, bowing your head under the sun, working silently and diligently while sweating profusely?

Are you like me, never giving up on the life you want even when faced with indifference?

Are you like me, constantly busy pursuing, pursuing an unexpected tenderness?

Are you like me, lost and bewildered, wandering aimlessly at the crossroads time and time again?

Because I don't care what others say.

I have never forgotten my promise to myself and my dedication to love.

I know my future is not a dream.

I live each minute to the fullest.

My future is not a dream; my heart beats with hope.

My future is not a dream; I live every minute to the fullest.

My future is not a dream

My heart beats with hope.

"Moving with hope"

The upbeat song made the audience realize that this was not a dream. The five members sang about the pursuit of dreams and the unremitting efforts of many young people. Only through hard work can dreams come true.

He hopes everyone can understand that whether you dream or not is not important; what matters is to experience, to strive, and to fight for your own tomorrow, even if you lose, you won't regret it.
