* NiuLang and ZhiNu are name of stars, Altair and Vega respectively. They are also characters from a chinese story. In the love story of Qi Xi, 七夕, Niu Lang (Altair) and his two children (Aquila -β and -γ) are separated forever from their mother Zhi Nü (Vega) who is on the far side of the river, the Milky Way. Therefore in this song, he gazed upon the stars and thought of this story, and is relating it to his situation.
- Edit - You can read more about NiuLang and ZhiNu in my next post, here's the link to it: 七夕，牛郎织女的故事 (Titled: Qi Xi, NiuLang and ZhiNu's story) -

** 十字星 literally means Cross Star while 北极星 literally means North Pole Star. I think the Cross Star refers to the Southern Cross Constellation (if there are other cross constellations) and the North Pole Star is also knowns as Polaris or just North Star which is at the north to suit the song's meaning better as he tries to relate it to his situation

*** I have some difficulty translating this line, I think the meaning is something like this, “As long as the hearts of the two of us are sincere to each other, then we will always be able to keep each other warm” However, i choose to translate it closer to the chinese text for the translation above. Another reason is that this translation is kinda long.
