桃花扇 - Changchao Li Übersetzung ins Englische

桃花扇

应是瑶台曾见她
人间哪有此荣华
巫山夜雨非为梦
可爱三春桃杏花

转瞬之间 自那一别 终难相见
似万年
守楼骂殿 如此气节 唯有香君
以血溅
桃花扇 点缀间 谁知血点溅满面
三贞洁 九重烈 为守志生死无怨
纵使朝中报私怨
哪怕身处青楼间
我亦常相守
在天地间
乱世情 谁人怜 唯有佳人言语间
梦相见 泪成泉 只羡牛女配神仙
终是寻觅不得见
自古悲情是红颜
桃花扇刻满
前世的缘

笑痴男怨女情深锁
不知变沧桑几阵干戈
兀自桃花扇里说人我
枉厮磨 再惹下风流祸

转瞬之间 自那一别 终难相见
似万年
守楼骂殿 如此气节 唯有香君
以血溅
桃花扇 点缀间 谁知血点溅满面
三贞洁 九重烈 为守志生死无怨
纵使朝中报私怨
哪怕身处青楼间
我亦常相守
在天地间
乱世情 谁人怜 唯有佳人言语间
梦相见 泪成泉 只羡牛女配神仙
终是寻觅不得见
自古悲情是红颜
桃花扇刻满
前世的缘

你我间的缘
来世相约

Peach Blossom Fan

It must have been on a celestial terrace where I first saw you,
For such beauty exists nowhere on earth.
The rainy night at Mount Wu was no mere dream,
Lovely are the peach and apricot blossoms of spring.

In a fleeting moment, since that farewell, we've been kept apart,
For what feels like an eternity.
Defending the tower, scolding the court, such courage, only you, Xiangjun, possess,
Splattered with blood.
The peach blossom fan, adorned as it is, who knew it would be stained with your blood?
Three virtues, nine layers of fervor, for your convictions, you face death without regret.
Even if the court harbors personal grudges,
Even if you reside within a brothel,
I will always remain by your side,
Between heaven and earth.
Love in troubled times, who shows pity? Only in your words do I find solace.
Meeting in dreams, tears flow like a spring, I envy the celestial Weaver and Cowherd.
Ultimately, I cannot find you,
Since ancient times, tragic beauty has always been the fate of beautiful women.
The peach blossom fan is etched with
Our past lives' connection.

The infatuated man and resentful woman's deep love locked away,
Unaware of the changing world and the countless wars.
Still, within the peach blossom fan, we speak of each other,
A futile devotion, igniting another tragic romance.

In a fleeting moment, since that farewell, we've been kept apart,
For what feels like an eternity.
Defending the tower, scolding the court, such courage, only you, Xiangjun, possess,
Splattered with blood.
The peach blossom fan, adorned as it is, who knew it would be stained with your blood?
Three virtues, nine layers of fervor, for your convictions, you face death without regret.
Even if the court harbors personal grudges,
Even if you reside within a brothel,
I will always remain by your side,
Between heaven and earth.
Love in troubled times, who shows pity? Only in your words do I find solace.
Meeting in dreams, tears flow like a spring, I envy the celestial Weaver and Cowherd.
Ultimately, I cannot find you,
Since ancient times, tragic beauty has always been the fate of beautiful women.
The peach blossom fan is etched with
Our past lives' connection.

The bond between you and I,
Let's meet in the next life.
