那夜的雨也没能留住你
The rain that night couldn't keep you here,
山谷的风它陪着我哭泣
The wind in the valley weeps with me,
你的驼铃声仿佛还在我耳边响起
Your camel bell still echoes in my ears,
告诉我你曾来过这里
Tell me you once wandered here,
我酿的酒喝不醉我自己
The wine I've brewed can't intoxicate me,
你唱的歌却让我一醉不起
But your song takes me to a drunken state,
我愿意陪你翻过雪山穿越戈壁
I would cross snow-capped mountains and deserts for you,
可你不辞而别还断绝了所有的消息
Yet you left without a word, cutting off all contact,
心上人我在可可托海等你
Beloved, I'm waiting for you in Keketuohai,
他们说你嫁到了伊犁
They say you married into Yili.
是不是因为那里有美丽的那拉提
Is it because there’s the beautiful Nalati?
还是那里的杏花才能酿出你要的甜蜜
Or is it the apricot blossoms there that brew the sweetness you desire?
毡房外又有驼铃声声响起
Outside the yurt, the sound of camel bells rings out
我知道那一定不是你
I know that can’t be you for sure
再没人能唱出像你那样动人的歌曲
No one can sing those enchanting songs like you do
再没有一个美丽的姑娘让我难忘记
There’s no beautiful girl who stays in my memory like you
我酿的酒喝不醉我自己
The wine I brew can't intoxicate me
你唱的歌却让我一醉不起
But your song leaves me wholly inebriated
我愿意陪你翻过雪山穿越戈壁
I would cross snow mountains and traverse the Gobi with you
可你不辞而别还断绝了所有的消息
Yet you left without a word, cutting off all news of you
心上人我在可可托海等你
My beloved, I wait for you at Keketohai
他们说你嫁到了伊犁
They say you've married into Yili
是不是因为那里有美丽的那拉提
Is it because there's the beautiful Nalati there?
还是那里的杏花才能酿出你要的甜蜜
Or is it that the apricot blossoms there can brew the sweetness you seek?
毡房外又有驼铃声声响起
Outside the yurt, the sound of camel bells rings out
我知道那一定不是你
I know that's definitely not you
再没人能唱出像你那样动人的歌曲
No one else can sing such enchanting songs like you do
再没有一个美丽的姑娘让我难忘记
No other lovely girl can make me forget you
心上人我在可可托海等你
My beloved, I wait for you at Keketohai
他们说你嫁到了伊犁
They say you've married into Yili
是不是因为那里有美丽的那拉提
Is it because there's the beautiful Nalati?
还是那里的杏花才能酿出你要的甜蜜
Or is it the apricot blossoms there that can brew the sweetness you desire?
毡房外又有驼铃声声响起
Outside the yurt, the sound of camel bells rings out again.
我知道那一定不是你
I know it must not be you.
再没人能唱出像你那样动人的歌曲
No one else can sing a song as enchanting as yours.
再没有一个美丽的姑娘让我难忘记
There's no beautiful girl that I can ever forget.
