Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “My General”

láng yān fēng shā kǒu
狼烟风沙口
I plead with my general to drink less

hái qǐng jiāng jun shǎo yǐn jiǔ
还请将军少饮酒
as he faces danger in the midst of warfare

qián fāng de lù bú hǎo zǒu
前方的路不好走
I will patiently wait at home for my loved one to return

wǒ zài jiā zhōng lái děng hòu
我在家中来等候
as the road ahead is treacherous

kě yuàn liǔ xià zǒu
可愿柳下走
May we grow old together

mǎn tóu yáng huā gòng bái shǒu
满头杨花共白首
walking hand in hand among the willows and falling blossoms

shí liǎng xiàng sī èr liǎng jiǔ
十两相思二两酒
Only after drinking two liang of wine to steady my heart

wǒ cái bǎ ài shuō chū kǒu
我才把爱说出口
can I finally confess my love, that I have carried with me for 10 liang long

láng yān fēng shā kǒu
狼烟风沙口
I plead with my general to drink less

hái qǐng jiāng jun shǎo yǐn jiǔ
还请将军少饮酒
as he faces danger in the midst of warfare

qián fāng de lù bú hǎo zǒu
前方的路不好走
I will patiently wait at home for my loved one to return

wǒ zài jiā zhōng lái děng hòu
我在家中来等候
as the road ahead is treacherous

kě yuàn liǔ xià zǒu
可愿柳下走
May we grow old together

mǎn tóu yáng huā gòng bái shǒu
满头杨花共白首
walking hand in hand among the willows and falling blossoms

shí liǎng xiàng sī èr liǎng jiǔ
十两相思二两酒
Only after drinking two liang of wine to steady my heart

wǒ cái bǎ ài shuō chū kǒu
我才把爱说出口
can I finally confess my love, that I have carried with me for 10 liang long

yǒu yī zuò chéng lóu shàng zhàn yī gè jiāng
有一座城楼上站一个将
There stands a general on top of a city tower

yuǎn yuǎn wàng guān ài kǒu tú shí lǐ hóng zhuāng
远远望关隘口涂十里红妆
From afar, you can see the ten mile long red ribbon at the entrance of the pass

luó gǔ zhōng nà wèi jiāo niáng
锣鼓中那位娇娘
There’s a young woman who sings and cries for the general

kū qì gěi jiāng jun chàng
哭泣给将军唱
amidst the sound of beating drums and gongs.

jiāng jun shuō huí qù ba
将军说回去吧
The general replies, ‘Go back

zhè yī qù biàn shì xùn zàng
这一去便是殉葬
for this journey may well be my funeral procession.’

dōng xuě yī zuò pò wū tīng jiàn shuí kū
冬雪一座破屋听见谁哭
In the midst of winter’s snowy night, I hear someone crying in a dilapidated house

hán yè fēng hū jǐ xǔ néng pàn lái wǒ fū
寒夜风呼几许能盼来我夫
The cold wind howls and I can only hope for the return of my husband

liù yuè xuě zǒng shì qī cǎn
六月雪总是凄惨
June snow is always melancholy

chī qíng rén bú gǎn kū hǎn
痴情人不敢哭喊
and as a lovesick person, I dare not cry out loud

shēn yè bú duàn niǎn zhuǎn
深夜不断辗转
In the late night, I toss and turn

xīn shàng rén zǎo yǐ zǒu yuǎn
心上人早已走远
knowing that my loved one has long since departed

bǎi nián hòu shuí mái rù huáng shā
百年后谁埋入黄沙
After a century has passed, who will be buried in the yellow sand?

bēi wén xià zāi zhǒng hóng huā
碑文下栽种红花
Beneath the inscription, plant a red flower

zhī yī duǒ míng jiào jiāng jun ā
只一朵名叫将军啊
Name the lone flower ‘General’

yòu huàn zuò bǐ àn shì jiā
又唤做彼岸是家
also known as the other side of the river, ‘Home’
