This is a beautiful song. It is the theme song of the movie “初恋”.
Title: 初恋女 (Maiden Love) Singer: 紫薇? Lyrics: 戴望舒 Music: 陈歌辛 Translation: 李杀 (Xah Lee)
我走遍漫漫的天涯路 我望断遥远的云和树 多少的往事堪重数 你呀你在何处 我难忘你哀怨的眼睛 我知道你那沉默的情意 你牵引我到一个梦中 我却在别个梦中忘记你 啊…我的梦和遗忘的人 啊…受我最初祝福的人 终日我灌溉着蔷薇 却让幽蘭枯萎 |
I have roamed all the roads I have seen past the clouds and trees How many memories are worth recounting You, O, you; where are you? I cannot forget your pining eyes I understood your quiet affections You lead me into a dream Though I have forgotten you in another O… my dream and my forgotten one O… the one who had my first blessing Daily I tend to rambler roses In derelict is the quite orchid |
Note: 蔷薇 is rambler rose. The 蘭 in 幽蘭 refers to 蘭花, that's Orchid.
