I love you more with every passing year.
岁月流逝,我对你的爱历久弥新。
Although I grow older every passing year, I am forever young when I am around you.
岁月已过,容颜已老。但有你在身旁,我将青春永不老。
Each year I spend with you is the best one yet! Here’s to making more memories in the Year of the Rat.
每当与你度过一年,都觉得是最幸福的一年。愿我们在鼠年创造更多美好回忆。
You made the past year one full of endless laughter and joy. May next year bring us the same and more.
你让过去的一年充满无尽的欢笑。希望这一年我俩依旧。
不知道你们还记不记得,移动互联网时代以前,逢年过节都会收到以及需要发出很多拜年短信。
有些在现在看来,真的是土味十足。下面这些英文短信,或许也有异曲同工之“土”,发出去或许有土洋结合之趣哦。(翻译仅供娱乐)
I wish you lots of fun until dawn,
the best songs, delicious champagne!
Although I’m not with you on New Year’s night,
Remember also about me for the next year.
愿你黎明前有无尽欢快
有欢歌、有美酒
尽管我除夕夜不在你身边
明年也请时常想念我
A lot of gifts,
not much in the life of corners,
a lot of bubbles in champagne,
someone who will make breakfast,
and at every step
happiness in New Year!
好礼不嫌多
人生的转角不要留恋
端起美酒,气泡蔓延
早起做早饭的人啊
每一步,都是新年的幸福
