Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “Memoirs in China”
zhǎng chéng yuǎn huáng hé liú lián mián qīng shān bú dào tóu
长 城 远 黄 河 流 连 绵 青 山 不 到 头
The Great Wall is far away, the Yellow River is flowing, the continuous mountains are endless
yáng guān sān chàng jun háng zǎo guāng yīn bǎi dài rèn qù liú
阳 关 三 唱 君 行 早 光 阴 百 代 任 去 留
Three songs at the Yang Pass, you should start the journey early, the time of a hundred generations come and go
huā luò dì fēng mǎn lóu yī huò wǎng shì bàn shēng shú
花 落 地 风 满 楼 一 镬 往 事 半 生 熟
Flowers fall on the ground, wind blows and fills the towers, a pot of past will take half a lifetime to mature
tíng yuàn chūn shēn suǒ bú zhù yī gè yī gè dōu yào zǒu
庭 院 春 深 锁 不 住 一 个 一 个 都 要 走
The deep courtyard can’t lock up people, everyone wants to leave
jù sàn yī yī huí dēng tiān jiǔ
聚 散 依 依 回 灯 添 酒
Gathering and parting, add some more wine under the light of lamp
gù xiāng míng yuè zài qiě wéi rén jiān shòu
故 乡 明 月 在 且 为 人 间 寿
The bright moon still shines on the hometown, and will keep shining as long as the mortal world lasts
jù sàn yī yī huí dēng tiān jiǔ
聚 散 依 依 回 灯 添 酒
Gathering and parting, add some more wine under the light of lamp
gù xiāng míng yuè zài
故 乡 明 月 在
The bright moon still shines on the hometown
qiě wéi rén jiān shòu
且 为 人 间 寿
and will keep shining as long as the mortal world lasts
zhǎng chéng yuǎn huáng hé liú lián mián qīng shān bú dào tóu
长 城 远 黄 河 流 连 绵 青 山 不 到 头
The Great Wall is far away, the Yellow River is flowing, the continuous mountains are endless
cāng máng gǔ dào rén háng shǎo bǎi suì guāng yīn rèn qù liú
苍 茫 古 道 人 行 少 百 岁 光 阴 任 去 留
On the vast ancient road, there are few people, people come and go in their lifetimes
jù sàn yī yī huí dēng tiān jiǔ
聚 散 依 依 回 灯 添 酒
Gathering and parting, add some more wine under the light of lamp
gù xiāng míng yuè zài qiě wéi rén jiān shòu
