Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “A Laugh Across the Blue Sea”
cāng hǎi yī shēng xiào
沧海一声笑
A laugh across the blue sea
cāng hǎi yī shēng xiào tāo tāo liǎng àn cháo
沧海一声笑 滔滔两岸潮
A laugh across the blue sea, waves surge on both shores
fú chén suí làng zhǐ jì jīn zhāo
浮沉随浪 只记今朝
Rise and fall with the waves, only remember today
cāng tiān xiào fēn fēn shì shàng cháo
苍天笑 纷纷世上潮
Heaven laughs at the worldly tides
shuí fù shuí shèng chū tiān zhī xiǎo
谁负谁胜出 天知晓
Who loses, who wins, only heaven knows
jiāng shān xiào yān yǔ yáo
江山笑 烟雨遥
Rivers and mountains laugh in the misty rain
tāo làng táo jìn hóng chén sú shì jǐ duō jiāo
涛浪淘尽红尘俗世几多娇
Waves wash away the beauties of this mortal world
qīng fēng xiào jìng rě jì liáo
清风笑 竟惹寂寥
The breeze laughs, yet brings loneliness
háo qíng hái shèng le yī jīn wǎn zhào
豪情还剩了一襟晚照
Only heroic spirit remains in the evening glow
cāng shēng xiào bú zài jì liáo
苍生笑 不再寂寥
All living beings laugh, no more loneliness
háo qíng réng zài chī chī xiào xiào
豪情仍在痴痴笑笑
Heroic spirit remains in foolish laughter
la……
啦……
La…
