  1. 天方夜谭

    A tale from the Arabian Nights

  2. 你有点高傲 像波斯国王 我因此灵巧 像中东女郎

    You're a bit proud, like a Persian king, so I charm like a Middle Eastern queen.

  3. 渴望像骆驼 在你沙漠上 魔幻像葡萄 在我舌头上

    Desire like a camel in your desert, magic like grapes upon my tongue.

  4. 告诉你 有盏灯 等你擦亮

    Let me tell you, there's a lamp waiting for your touch.

  5. 告诉你 有精灵 在我发上

    Let me tell you, there's a spirit resting in my hair.

  6. 渴望像风暴 总来的匆忙

    Desire like a storm, always rushing in.

  7. 怎可能只得到 一个夜晚

    How could I settle for just one night?

  8. 我是你的 天方夜谭 总有神秘梦不完

    I am your Arabian Nights, with endless mysterious dreams.

  1. 我是你的 天方夜谭 叫你不断想像

    I am your Arabian Nights, igniting your imagination.

  2. 敢不敢到贼船上 找不找到宝藏

    Dare you board the pirate ship, will you find the treasure?

  3. 我和你的最好这样 你比我紧张

    The best of me and you, this way, you're more anxious than I am.

  4. 告诉你 有人鱼 等你释放

    Let me tell you, there’s a mermaid waiting for your release.

  5. 告诉你 有暗语 在我唇上

    Let me tell you, there are secret words upon my lips.

  6. 渴望像传说中 带著疯狂

    Desire, like in legends, carries a touch of madness.

  7. 怎可能只得到 一个夜晚

    How could it be that we only get one night?

  8. 我是你的 天方夜谭 总有神秘梦不完

    I am your Arabian Nights, forever filled with mysterious dreams.

  9. 我是你的 天方夜谭 叫你不断想像

    I am your Arabian Nights, making you imagine endlessly.

  10. 敢不敢到贼船上 找不找到宝藏

    Dare you board the pirate ship, will you find the treasure?

  11. 我和你的最好这样 你比我紧张

    The best of me and you, this way, you're more anxious than I am.

  12. 我是你的 天方夜谭 总有情调很东方

    I am your Arabian Nights, always setting the mood in an Eastern way.

  13. 我是你的 天方夜谭 叫你不断想像

    I am your Arabian Nights, making you constantly dream.

  14. 敢不敢到温柔乡 钓不钓到月亮

    Dare you venture to the land of gentleness? Will you catch the moon?

  15. 我和你的最好这样 你比我紧张

    The best moment with you is just like this; you're more nervous than me.

  16. 送给你一千零二个的晚上

    I gift you a thousand and two nights.

  17. 想给你一千零二个想像

    I wish to offer you a thousand and two imaginings.

  18. 想连豺狼也知道我不一样

    I want even the wolves to know that I’m not the same.

  19. 想你不用看别的姑娘

    I want you to need not look at other girls.

  20. 我是你的 天方夜谭 总有神秘梦不完

    I am your Arabian Nights, always holding endless, mysterious dreams.

  21. 我是你的 天方夜谭 叫你不断想像

    I am your Arabian Nights, making you constantly dream.

  22. 敢不敢到贼船上 找不找到宝藏

    Dare you hop aboard the pirate ship? Will you find the treasure?

  23. 我和你的最好这样 你比我紧张

    You and I are best like this, you’re more anxious than I am.

  24. 我是你的 天方夜谭 总有情调很东方

    I am your Arabian Nights, always filled with an Eastern charm.
