So Many Regrets: (Gaze Into the Distance To Jiangnan)
多 少 很: 望 江 南
多 少 很，昨 夜 梦 魂 中。
还 似 旧 时 游 上 苑
车 如 流 水 马 如 龙
花 月 正 春 风。
多 少 泪，断 脸 复 横 颐。
心 事 莫 将 和 泪 说
凤 笙 休 向 泪 时 吹
肠 断 更 无 疑。
Duo Shao Hen: (Wang Jiang Nan)
Duo shao hen, zuo ye meng hun zhong.
Huan si jiu shi you shang yuan
Che ru liu shui ma ru long
Hua yue zheng chun feng.
Duo shao lei, duan lian fu heng yi.
Xin shi mo jiang he lei shui
Feng sheng xiu xiang lei shi chui
Chang duan geng wu yi.
So Many Regrets: (Gaze Into the Distance For Jiangnan)
So many regrets, last night’s dreams among the spirits
Went back to a previous time, wandering around the enclosed orchards.
Carriages like flowing water, horses handsome and frisky like dragons
Spring breeze and blossoms in the first lunar month.
Many tears, again roll across the saddened cheeks
Heart-mind, no one can accept gentle tears or persuasion.
Tears make it difficult to blow into and play the phoenix sheng
Broken up insides, without a doubt feel this doubled pain.
Notes:
Jiangnan: The area south of mouth of the Changjiang in Zhejiang Province.
Sheng: Ancient reed musical instrument.
