TUNE: SPRING IN JADE PAVILION SPRING GRIEF

 

Farewell Pavilion green with grass and willow trees!

How could my gallant young lord have left me with ease!

I’m woke by midnight bell from dun dream in my bower;

Parting grief won’t part with flowers falling in shower.

My beloved feels not the grief my loving heart sheds;

Each string as woven with thousnads of painful threads.

However far and wide the sky and earth may be,

They can’t measure the lovesickness o’erwhelming me.

 

玉楼春

春恨

绿杨芳草长亭路，

年少抛人容易去。

楼头残梦五更钟，

花底离情三月雨。

无情不似多情苦，

一寸还成千万缕。

天涯地角有穷时，

只有相思无尽处。
