羽扇纶巾笑谈间 千军万马我无懈 （我无懈）
With a feather fan and silk cap, I laugh and chat amidst a thousand troops without a flaw (without a flaw)
伪面君子三尺剑 狼火烽烟我敷衍 （我敷衍）
A false gentleman wields a three-foot sword, amidst the flames and smoke, I simply go through the motions (I go through the motions)
生于乱世行不言 功过不求谁来鉴
Born in chaos, actions remain unspoken, I seek no witness for my deeds and misdeeds
灯为谁点 脂为谁添 任谁来笑我太疯癫
Who lights the lamp for whom, who adds the essence for whom, let anyone laugh at my madness
雨一直下 风一直刮 谁与我煮酒论天下
The rain keeps falling, the wind keeps blowing, who will drink wine and discuss the world with me
万箭齐发 杀气如麻 谁忍我乱世中安家
A thousand arrows rain down, the killing intent is thick, who can bear to settle down amidst this chaos
三分天下 为谁争霸 如今我已剑指天涯
Dividing the world into three parts, for whom do we contend, now I have set my sword towards the horizon
却只想为你抚琴 从此无牵挂
Yet I only wish to strum for you, from now on with no cares
雨一直下 风一直刮 我煮酒天下
The rain keeps falling, the wind keeps blowing, I brew wine for the world
三分天下 为谁争霸 我剑指天涯
Dividing the world into three parts, for whom do we contend, my sword points towards the horizon
雨一直下 风一直刮 我煮酒天下
The rain keeps falling, the wind keeps blowing, as I brew wine for the world.
三分天下 为谁争霸 我剑指天涯
In a divided realm, for whom do we battle? My sword points to the horizon.
羽扇纶巾笑谈间 千军万马我无懈（我无懈）
With feather fans and silk hats, I jest among the chaos, I remain unyielding (I remain unyielding).
伪面君子三尺剑 狼火烽烟我敷衍（我敷衍）
A false gentleman with a three-foot sword, amidst the smoke of war, I play it off (I play it off).
生于乱世行不言 功过不求谁来鉴
Born in troubled times, my actions speak without words, seeking no witness for my deeds.
灯为谁点 脂为谁添 任谁来笑我太疯癫
For whom do I light the lantern? For whom do I add the oil? Let anyone laugh at my madness.
雨一直下 风一直刮 谁与我煮酒论天下
The rain keeps falling, the wind keeps blowing; who will share wine with me to discuss the world?
万箭齐发 杀气如麻 谁忍我乱世中安家
A barrage of arrows released, the killing intent thick as fog; who can bear to settle amid this chaos?
三分天下 为谁争霸 如今我已剑指天涯
In a divided realm, for whom do we battle? Now my sword points to the horizon.
却只想为你抚琴 从此无牵挂
Yet all I wish is to play for you, from now on free of burdens.
漫天恩恩怨怨的变化 谁为我泡壶热茶
In this world of endless entanglements, who will brew me a cup of hot tea?
你为他断了指甲 换不回他一句牵挂 呜哦
You broke your nails for him, but can't reclaim a single word of concern from him, ooh.
雨一直下 风一直刮 谁与我煮酒论天下
The rain keeps falling, the wind keeps blowing, who will share wine with me to discuss the world?
万箭齐发 杀气如麻 谁忍我乱世中安家
A thousand arrows fly forth, with a murderous intent thick as hemp, who can bear to settle down in this chaotic age?
三分天下 为谁争霸 如今我已剑指天涯
Dividing the world into three parts, for whom do we compete? Now I aim my sword at the ends of the earth.
却只想为你抚琴 从此无牵挂
Yet all I wish is to play the zither for you, from now on unburdened.
原来我一生戎马 三国为你杀
It turns out I've spent my life on the battlefields, slaying for you in the Three Kingdoms.
