王菲 - 但愿人长久

Chinese Lyrics
明月几时有
把酒问青天
不知天上宫阙
今夕是何年

我欲乘风归去
唯恐琼楼玉宇
高处不胜寒
起舞弄清影
何似在人间

转朱阁低绮户照无眠
不应有恨何事长向别时圆

人有悲欢离合
月有阴晴圆缺
此事古难全
但愿人长久
千里共婵娟

English Translations
When will the moon be bright and round

Raising the wine and asking the clear sky

I wonder what year is it now this evening,

Over there in the Celestial Palace

I want to ride the wind to go back

But only afraid that being in the Jade Palace

Being at a high place wouldn't be able to withstand the cold (Being at a high position would let one feel lonely)

Dancing with just a soft casted shadow

Unlike being on the human world

The moonlight passes through the red buildings, through the patterned silk window, shining on those who are sleepless

Must not regret, but why are you (the moon) round only when people are apart?

Humans have times of sadness, happiness, partings, and meetings;

The moon has times when it is cloudy, clear, times when it is round, and times when it is not;

This kind of things can't be perfect since long time ago

Only wish that we last forever

Sharing the same beautiful moon even if we're far far apart.
