Lyrics and translation 汪明荃 - 兩地相思 (鄭少秋合唱)

兩地相思 (鄭少秋合唱)

牵情知心友自春到秋
独对青灯厌听铜壶滴漏
相思消瘦 助镇守梁州
相思苦 惟酒可消万古愁
日日醉梁州 每夜笙歌卒未休
感恩知有地 不上望京楼
拼教大醉后 不复再情牵咏红豆
花谢花飘惹恨忧
朝夕空叹无期相聚 痴心挂红袖

倚楼轻叹泪沾腮
梦觉深宵人何在
相思结 莫计解开
燕分飞 伤心无奈
暗唏嘘 冷月纱窗外 开帘风动竹
疑是夫婿归来 长门等待
今夜空对月 不复再题诗玉楼外
花谢花飘似为我哀
只为哀去年人不在

Our Love Across the Lands (Chorus with Cheng Shaoqiu)

Affection for my confidant from spring to autumn
Facing the lamp alone, loath to hear the dripping copper pot
Lovesickness wastes me, helping to guard Liangzhou
The bitterness of lovesickness, only wine can dispel my ancient sorrow
Every day drunk in Liangzhou, every night singing and playing music until exhausted
Grateful for having ground beneath my feet, not seeking the capital
Even after being thoroughly drunk, I will never sing of the red bean again
Flowers bloom, flowers fall, provoking resentment and sorrow
Morning and evening, sighing as I long to meet you, my heart devoted to my red sleeves

Leaning on the building, I sigh, tears staining my cheeks
Awaking from my dream, in the depths of the night, where are you?
The knot of love, don't try to untie it
Swallows fly away, heartbroken and helpless
Secretly sighing, the cold moon outside the gauze window, the wind through the bamboo when I open the curtain
Thinking it's my husband returning, I wait in the long corridor
Tonight, facing the moon alone, I will never write poems outside the Jade Building again
Flowers bloom, flowers fall, as if mourning for me
Mourning only that last year, he was not here
