娘子 lyrics with English translation

娘子 娘子却依旧每日 折一枝杨柳

My lady, my lady, still each day she plucks a willow branch.

你在那里 在小村外的溪边河口默默等着我

There you are, waiting quietly for me by the stream outside the little village.

娘子依旧每日折一枝杨柳

My lady still plucks a willow branch each day.

你在那里 在小村外的溪边 默默等待 娘子

There you are, waiting silently by the stream outside the village, my lady.

一壶好酒 再来一碗热粥 配上几斤的牛肉

A pot of fine wine, another bowl of hot porridge, paired with some beef.

我说店小二 三两银够不够

I said, innkeeper, is three taels of silver enough?

景色入秋 漫天黄沙凉过

The scenery turns to autumn, fine dust in the air feels cool.

塞北的客栈人多 牧草有没有 我马儿有些瘦

In the northern taverns, the crowd is plenty, is there any forage? My horse is a bit thin.

世事看透 江湖上潮起潮落 什么恩怨过错

Seeing through the world's affairs, tides rise and fall in the rivers and lakes, what grudges and mistakes.

在多年以后 还是让人难过 心伤透

Years later, it still brings sadness, my heart is deeply wounded.

娘子她人在江南等我 泪不休 语沉默

My lady waits for me in the south of the river, tears unceasing, words left unspoken.

娘子却依旧每日折一枝杨柳

Yet my lady still plucks a branch of willow every day.

在小村外的溪边河口

By the creek outside the little village,

默默的在等着我

Silently waiting for me.

家乡的爹娘早已苍老了轮廓

My hometown's parents have long since aged in their silhouettes.

娘子我欠你太多

My lady, I owe you so much.

一壶好酒 再来一碗热粥 配上几斤的牛肉

A pot of fine wine, another bowl of hot porridge, paired with a few pounds of beef.

我说店小二 三两银够不够

I say, innkeeper, is three taels of silver enough?

景色入秋 漫天黄沙凉过

The scenery turns to autumn, with the coolness of yellow sand filling the air.

塞北的客栈人多 牧草有没有 我马儿有些瘦

In the northern inn, the crowd is many; is there any grass for the herds? My horse feels a bit thin.

天涯尽头 满脸风霜落寞 近乡情怯的我

At the end of the world, my face weathered, full of loneliness; I'm feeling shy returning home.

相思寄红豆 相思寄红豆无能为力的在人海中漂泊心伤透

Love's longing sent through red beans, powerless to drift in the sea of people, my heart deeply hurt.

娘子她人在江南等我 泪不休 语沉默

My wife waits for me in Jiangnan, tears flow endlessly, words fall into silence.

一壶好酒 再来一碗热粥 配上几斤的牛肉

A pot of fine wine, let's have a bowl of hot porridge, paired with a few pounds of beef.

我说店小二 三两银够不够

I said to the innkeeper, is three taels of silver enough?

景色入秋 漫天黄沙凉过

The scenery of autumn arrives, with yellow sands scattering in the cool air.

塞北的客栈人多 牧草有没有 我马儿有些瘦

In the northern guesthouse, many people gather; is there any grass for the horses? My steed is a bit thin.

世事看透 江湖上潮起潮落 什么恩怨过错

Seeing through the world, the tides of the rivers and lakes rise and fall; what grievances and mistakes are there?

在多年以后 还是让人难过 心伤透

Years later, it still brings sadness, my heart deeply hurt.

娘子她人在江南等我 泪不休 语沉默

My wife waits for me in Jiangnan, tears flow endlessly, words fall into silence.

娘子却依旧每日折一枝杨柳

My love still picks a branch of willow every day,

在小村外的溪边河口

By the stream at the mouth of the river outside the little village.

默默的在等着我

Silently waiting for me.

家乡的爹娘早已苍老了轮廓

The outlines of my parents back home have aged long ago.

娘子我欠你太多

My dear, I owe you too much.

一壶好酒 再来一碗热粥 配上几斤的牛肉

A pot of good wine, another bowl of hot porridge, paired with a few pounds of beef.

我说店小二 三两银够不够

I said to the innkeeper, is three taels of silver enough?

景色入秋 漫天黄沙凉过

The scenery turns to autumn, with the yellow sand cooling the air.

塞北的客栈人多 牧草有没有 我马儿有些瘦

In the northern inn, there are many people; is there any grass for the livestock? My horse is a bit thin.

天涯尽头 满脸风霜落寞 近乡情怯的我

At the world's end, with a face full of frost and loneliness, I feel timid as I near home.

相思寄红豆 相思寄红豆无能为力的在人海中漂泊心伤透

Longing is sent with red beans, adrift in the crowd, powerless, heartbroken.

娘子她人在江南等我 泪不休 语沉默

My lady waits for me in Jiangnan, tears flow, words remain silent.

娘子 娘子却依旧每日 折一枝杨柳

Oh my lady, still every day, you pluck a branch of willow.

你在那里 在小村外的溪边河口默默等着我

There you are, by the creek outside the village, silently waiting for me.

娘子依旧每日折一枝杨柳

My lady still plucks a branch of willow each day.

你在那里 在小村外的溪边 默默等待 娘子

There you are, by the creek outside the village, quietly waiting, my lady.

娘子 娘子却依旧每日 折一枝杨柳

Oh my lady, still every day, you pluck a branch of willow.

There you are, by the creek outside the village, silently waiting for me.

There you are, by the creek outside the village, quietly waiting, my lady.
