Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “Vainly Knit Brows”
wǎng níng méi
枉凝眉
Vainly Knit Brows
yí gè shì làng yuàn xiān pā
一个是阆苑仙葩
One is an immortal flower in paradise
yí gè shì měi yù wú xiá
一个是美玉无瑕
One is flawless jade
ruò shuō méi qí yuán
若说没奇缘
If saying no predestined bond
jīn shēng piān yòu yù zhe tā
今生偏又遇着他
Why in this life did they meet
ruò shuō yǒu qí yuán
若说有奇缘
If saying predestined bond
rú hé xīn shì zhōng xū huà
如何心事终虚化
Why do heartfelt matters come to naught
a
啊
Ah
yí gè wǎng zì jiē ya
一个枉自嗟呀
One vainly sighs
yí gè kōng láo qiān guà
一个空劳牵挂
One uselessly pines
yí gè shì shuǐ zhōng yuè
一个是水中月
One is moon in water
yí gè shì jìng zhōng huā
一个是镜中花
One is flower in mirror
xiǎng yǎn zhōng
想眼中
Think how many
néng yǒu duō shǎo lèi zhū er
能有多少泪珠儿
Tears can fill these eyes
zěn jīng dé qiū liú dào dōng jìn
怎经得秋流到冬尽
How can they flow from autumn through winter
chūn liú dào xià
春流到夏
From spring to summer
a
啊
Ah
