鳳飛飛-流水年華

凤飞飞
Feng fei fei

流水年华
Liu shui nian hua
Flowing water years
Running water years

朦胧的街灯 静静躺在小雨中 往事又掠过我心头
Mong2 long2 de5 jie1 deng1, jing4 jing4 tang3 zai4 xiao3 yu3 zhong1, wang3 shi4 you4 lue4 guo4 wo3 xin1 tou2
Hazy streetlights quietly stood in the drizzles; the past again swept past my mind.

犹记离别的时候 紧紧握住我的双手
you2 ji4 li2 bie2 de5 shi2 hou4, jin3 jin3 wo4 zhu4 wo3 de5 shuang1 shou3
I still remember at the time of parting, you tightly held my both hands.

轻轻一句多珍重 眼儿也朦胧
qing1 qing1 yi2 ju4 duo1 zhen1 zhong4, yan3 er2 ye3 mong2 long2
You uttered lightly one sentence “take good care”, and my eyes also became hazy.

年华似水流 转眼又是春风柔 层层的相思也悠悠
nian2 hua2 si4 shui3 liu2, zhuan3 yan3 you4 shi4 chun1 feng1 rou2, ceng2 ceng2 de5 xiang1 si1 ye3 you1 you1
The years are like flowing water. In the blink of an eye, it is again the gentle spring wind. Layer upon layer, the longing also lasts for ages.

他乡风寒露更浓 劝君早晚要好保重
ta1 xiang1 feng1 han2 lu4 geng4 nong2, quan4 jun1 zao3 wan3 yao4 hao3 bao3 zhong4
In foreign land, the wind is colder and the dews are more condensed.

期待他日再相逢 共度白首
qi2 dai4 ta1 ri4 zai4 xiang1 feng2, gong4 du4 bai2 shou3
I look forward to other day’s reunion and spending white hair years together.

今宵微寒 路上行人匆匆
jin1 xiao1 wei2 han2, lu4 shang4 xing2 ren2 cong1 cong1
Tonight the air is a bit chilly, and the passengers are hurried.

朦胧的街灯 孤立在小雨中
mong2 long2 de5 jie1 deng1, gu1 li4 zai4 xiao3 yu3 zhong1
Hazy streetlights lonely stand in the drizzles.

远处传来幽幽的歌声 句句在我心田
yuan3 chu4 chuan2 lai2, you1 you1 de5 ge1 sheng1, ju4 ju4 zai4 wo3 xin1 tian2
From distant place arrived the secluded sound of songs; each sentence is all in my heart’s field.

年华似水流 转眼又是春风柔 层层的相思也悠悠
nian2 hua2 si4 shui3 liu2, zhuan3 yan3 you4 shi4 chun1 feng1 rou2, ceng2 ceng2 de5 xiang1 si1 ye3 you1 you1
The years are like flowing water. In the blink of an eye, it is again the gentle spring wind. Layer upon layer, the longing also lasts for ages.

他乡风寒露更浓 劝君早晚要好保重
ta1 xiang1 feng1 han2 lu4 geng4 nong2, quan4 jun1 zao3 wan3 yao4 hao3 bao3 zhong4
In foreign land, the wind is colder and the dews are more condensed.

期待他日再相逢 我期待他日再相逢 共度白首
qi2 dai4 ta1 ri4 zai4 xiang1 feng2, wo3 qi2 dai4 ta1 ri4 zai4 xiang1 feng2, gong4 du4 bai2 shou3
I look forward to other day’s reunion. I look forward to other day’s reunion and spending white hair years together.

Fong Fei fei was born as Lin Chiu-luan and grew up in Dasi, Taoyuan County, in central Taiwan. But lived in Hong Kong for the last ten years before she died.

She has produced more than 80 albums and held numerous sold-out concerts at home and abroad during her decades-long performance career and also stared in various Chinese films and TV variety shows.

She died on the 3rd of January 2012 from lung cancer, but the news was only reported on the 13th of February 2012 by her lawyer due to the final request of Fong Fei Fei who asked to keep her illness and death out of the limelight until all of her funeral arrangements were settled.

Would thou could’st make the time to do so too;
I’ll wind thee up no more.
