又是一季春来早 柳絮满天飘 It is another Spring that comes early. The catkins are flying all over the sky

暧风轻扬桃花红了 榆钱串上了梢 The breeze is warm and gentle, the peach flower red. The elm tree has new leaves

是谁碰碎了翡翠桥 染绿了小村庄 Who has smashed the jade bridge that has dyed the village green?

牧童换上了新衣裳 黄鹂也笑弯了腰 The shepherd has changed his new clothes. The cornbird is singing and dancing

 

江南旧事梦里梦外 又岂只是三春 Memories about the old days in Jiangnan have kept coming into soldiers’ mind

塞上风云隔水相眷 疑是故人来 The river and the sky is cut where the soldier guards the boarder. He is always looking to see a friend from home

昨日的黄花旧时容颜 怎不忆江南 Time flies, the young soldier becomes old. How can an old man not miss his home in Jiangnan?

醉依桃红泣别离 生在尘缘外 He is drunk, sobbing by the peach tree. He is living his life far away from home

又是一季春来早 柳絮满天飘It is another Spring that comes early. The catkins are flying all over the sky

暧风轻扬桃花红了 榆钱串上了梢The breeze is warm and gentle, the peach flower red. The elm tree has new leaves

是谁碰碎了翡翠桥 染绿了小村庄Who has smashed the jade bridge that has dyed the village green?

牧童换上了新衣裳 黄鹂也笑弯了腰The shepherd has changed his new clothes. The cornbird is singing and dancing
