Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “All Good Things Must End”
hǎo le gē
好了歌
All Good Things Must End
shì rén dōu xiǎo shén xiān hǎo wéi yǒu gōng míng wàng bù liǎo
世人都晓神仙好 唯有功名忘不了
All men long to be immortals, yet to riches and rank each aspires
gǔ jīn jiàng xiàng zài hé fāng huāng zhǒng yī duī cǎo méi le
古今将相在何方 荒冢一堆草没了
The great ones of old, where are they now? Their graves are a mass of briars
shì rén dōu xiǎo shén xiān hǎo zhǐ yǒu jīn yín wàng bù liǎo
世人都晓神仙好 只有金银忘不了
All men long to be immortals, yet silver and gold they prize
zhōng zhāo zhǐ hèn jù wú duō jí dào duō shí yǎn bì le
终朝只恨聚无多 及到多时眼闭了
And grub for money all their lives, till death seals up their eyes
yǎn bì le yǎn bì le
眼闭了 眼闭了
Eyes closed, eyes closed
