沁园春：伊人远去

沁园春

Spring in Qin Garden ( Garden of Dews)

一诺三生，

A promise of fate

东海仙槎，

A ferry boat or the Noah Ark

西域方舟。

Take us to that promised land

听风铃夜雨，

Wind chimes in night rain

水畔消息，

Tidings from the waves

山林猿啸，

A wild call from the jungle,

夕阳暮钟。

Evening bell tolls to the setting sun

仗剑独行，

A lonely traveler 

枯毫孤苦，

A lonely writer,

酒冷谁在小月楼？

Who is toasting to the new moon?

海平阔，

The sea endless and smooth,

看树梢老星，

An ancient star over the tree top,

依旧从容。

Looking down at the world as before。

相思情困语柔，

Sigh softly, when lover is gone

随水去，踏沙尾浪头。

Strolling on the sand, chasing the waves

追惊鸿旧影；

Bygone days return

挽月箫声；

Flute sings to the moon 

乾坤天演，

Natural elements follow their course

机缘地推。

Fate and chances self-operating。

心路渐宽，

A wider road opens to my heart

命格不窄，

One's destination is foretold

一江扬波尽放喉。

The river rolls loud on its way

欲何求，

What do I wish but

借风流半盏，

To borrow a half cup of romance

一夜清秋。

And a clear autumn night
