TUNE: EVERLASTING LONGING

长相思

You come so soon

来匆匆，

And leave so soon.

去匆匆，

Can I rely on short dreams and spring passed in vain?

短梦无凭春又空，

It’s hard to follow your traces again.

难随郎马踪。

From hill to hill,

山重重，

From rill to rill,

水重重，

Like willow down and cloud wafting from east to west,

飞絮流云西复东，

Where to send you my wishes best?

音书何处通？
