I’ll only put on red sleeves for you in this life

三 巡 酒 过 月 上 枝 头 ,
Three rounds of wine over the moon

wǒ xīn yōu yōu 。

My heart is obsessed

yī nián sì jì de gèng tì ,
一 年 四 季 的 更 替 ,

zhú dēng xià de jiù qíng yì shuí lǐ ,
烛 灯 下 的 旧 情 意 谁 理 ,
Who will care about the old romance under the candlelight

xī chuāng wài de liáng rén qì bú yì 。
西 窗 外 的 良 人 泣 不 易 。
The good person outside the west window sob about the uneasy life

jǔ bēi shuí hé míng yuè tí qǐ tā zài yuǎn fāng děng nǐ ,
举 杯 谁 和 明 月 提 起 她 在 远 方 等 你 ,
Who raised cup with the bright moon mentioning that she is waiting for you in distance

děng nǐ zài luò xià jǐ bǐ 。

Waiting for you to be listed on the golden list (results of government examination)

yàn shàng sān wǔ bǐ luò mò zhè gū tí 。
