Lü Dao Xiaoyequ     Green Island Serenade
words by Chen Chang-shou
music by Yao Di
Mandarin version sung by Vienna Teng:
Zhe lü dao xiang yi zhi chuan,
zai yue ye li yao ya yao.
Gu niang ya, ni ye zai wo
de xin hai li piao ya piao.
Rang wo de ge sheng sui na wei feng,
chui kai le ni de chuang lian.
Rang wo de zhong qing sui na liu shui,
bu duan de xiang ni qing su.
Ye zi shu de chang ying
yan bu zhu wo de qing yi;
ming mei de yue guang
geng zhao liang le wo de xin.
Zhe lü dao de ye yi jing zhe yang de chen jing-
gu niang ya, ni wei shen ma hai shi muo muo wu yü?
Translation by Ed Peaslee:
This Green Island is like a boat,
floating in the moonlight,
My darling, you too are floating in the sea of my heart,
Let the sound of my song follow the breeze,
blowing open the curtain of your window,
Let my love follow the flowing water,
endlessly pouring out its feelings for you.
The long shadows of the palm trees
cannot conceal my love,
The bright beauty of the moonlight
casts its brilliance into my heart.
This Green Island night is so calm and serene,
My darling, why are you silent, saying nothing?
