Текст и перевод песни 陳美齡 - 漓江曲

漓江曲

水插獨秀峰 筆架在雲上
山影有幾個倒到水中央
秋意鬧桂花 千里飄桂香
幾個艇家雜語笑聲響徹兩面岸

生我在世間 應生於這方
可以散發拋卻俗塵那憂傷
家卻在遠方 此處非故鄉
雖有片刻暫作寄居終要再流浪

也許理想正是這樣
也許到底終會失望
每一個美麗旅程
間中也覓到夢中一切虛有幻象

不要念故鄉 此際何模樣
只要緊記此處景緻最堪賞
君你若醉心 心意漸搖蕩
歸去那天莫叫艇家急切划槳
終有一別 終有一別
相處只盼再延長

也許理想正是這樣
也許到底終會失望
每一個美麗旅程
間中也覓到夢中一切虛有幻象

不要念故鄉 此際何模樣
只要緊記此處景緻最堪賞
君你若醉心 心意漸搖蕩
歸去那天莫叫艇家急切划槳
終有一別 終有一別
相處只盼再延長

可以怎樣 可以怎樣
把愛心放在灕江上

Melody of the Li River

Water weaves around the Solitary Peak, a brush-holder in the clouds
The shadows of the mountains stretch into the water
Autumn perfumes the air with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers
Boatmen chat and laugh, their voices echoing across the river banks

I was born to live in this land,
To escape the sadness of the mundane world
But my home is far away, this is not my birthplace
Though I may linger here for a while, I must eventually move on

Perhaps this is the nature of dreams,
Perhaps they will ultimately disappoint
Every beautiful journey
Is accompanied by the realization that dreams are often illusory

Don't think about home, how it has changed
Just remember the beauty of this place
If you become enchanted, your heart will yearn
When it's time to leave, don't let the boatman row too quickly
There will come a time when we must part,
But until then, let's cherish the time we have together

Perhaps this is the nature of dreams,
Perhaps they will ultimately disappoint
Every beautiful journey
Is accompanied by the realization that dreams are often illusory

Don't think about home, how it has changed
Just remember the beauty of this place
If you become enchanted, your heart will yearn
When it's time to leave, don't let the boatman row too quickly
There will come a time when we must part,
But until then, let's cherish the time we have together

What can be done, what can be done?
Let's leave our love on the Li River
