Lyrics:
The distant night sky contains a crescent moon
遥远的夜空有一个弯弯的月亮
Below the crescent moon is a small, crescent-shaped bridge
弯弯的月亮下面是那弯弯的小桥
Next to the small bridge is a small, crescent-shaped boat
小桥的旁边有一条弯弯的小船
Resting in the small, crescent-shaped boat is my childhood friend Ah Qiao
耷弯的小船悠悠是那童年的阿娇
Ooooo……
呜
Ah Qiao is rocking the boat
阿娇揺着船
Singing that ancient song
唱着那古老的歌谣
The music floats blithely with the wind
歌声随风飘啊
Floating toward my face
飘到我的脸上
Tears roll down my face
脸上淌着泪
Like the water of that crescent-shaped river
象那条弯弯的河水
The crescent-shaped rivers water
耷弯的河水啊
Flows into my heart
流进我的心上
Ooooo…..Ahhhh…..
呜…..啊…..
My heart is full of grief
我的心充满惆怅
Not because of that crescent moon
不为那弯弯的月亮
But because of toda/s village
只为那今天的村庄
Still singing the song of the past
还唱着过去的歌谣
Oh… …
噢… …
My hometown's moon
故乡的月亮
Your crescent-shaped sorrow
你那弯弯的忧伤
Has pierced my chest
穿透了我的胸膛
Ahhhh
啊… …
The distant night sky contains a crescent moon
遥远的夜空有一个弯弯的月亮
Below the crescent moon is a small, crescent-shaped bridge
弯弯的月亮下面是那弯弯的小桥
Next to the small bridge is a small, crescent-shaped boat
小桥的旁边有一条耷弯的小船
Resting in the small, crescent-shaped boat is my childhood friend Ah Qiao
弯弯的小船悠悠是那童年的阿娇
Ooooo
呜…
