Paroles et traduction 王菲 - 南海姑娘

南海姑娘

椰风挑动银浪，
夕阳躲云偷看，
看见金色的沙滩上，
独坐一位美丽的姑娘。
眼睛星样灿烂，
眉似新月弯弯，
穿着一件红色的纱笼，
红得象她嘴上的槟榔。
她在轻叹，
叹那无情郎。
想到泪汪汪，
湿了红色纱笼白衣裳。
哎呀南海姑娘，
何必太过悲伤。
年纪轻轻只十六吧？
旧梦失去有新侣做伴。

South Sea Girl

The sea breeze stirs the silver waves,
The setting sun peeks out from behind the clouds,
And on the golden sandy beach,
Sits a solitary, beautiful girl.
Her eyes sparkle like stars,
Her eyebrows curve like new moons,
She wears a red sarong,
As red as the betel nut in her mouth.
She sighs,
Sighing for her heartless lover.
Her tears flow freely,
Dampening her red sarong and white blouse.
Oh, South Sea girl,
Why be so sad?
You're only sixteen, are you not?
Forget your old love and find a new companion.
