Drinking baijiu,
Thinking of you,
And that lovely night ,
That ended far too soon.
My silken sleeves are wet,
With teardrops of regret,
Upon my harp of jade I play,
The same song that you played,
For me the night you died,
Your gown was pink,
The stars burned bright,
You said you saw a raven or a maiden hovering,
But I could not protect you from a ghost I could not see.
The blossom of the plum,
The setting of the sun,
Dancing in the moonlight,
Yet by midnight you were gone,
From me, oh love! Our fate--
So beautiful to watch,
Very difficult to play.
Oh woe is me! Our destiny,
Is cold but sweet,
Like a harp of jade.
