北城風雨 Northern Storm Lyrics

Word has it a northern storm approaches
Day and night people shut their doors
Fear clouds every alley and heart
Happiness withers away steadily
聽聞北城起風破
彼日人人晝掩門
滿城風雨心憂憂
恐驚花無百日紅

One spring night, lightning split the sky
Thunder jolted everyone out of sleep
Squalls in spring rattled tree branches
Nest in ruins, even a fledgling must flee
更深窗外春雷霆
一聲驚醒眾人夢
以為欲春方時雨
鳥飛岫破哮袂休

The Sun is setting into the sea
Tired birds are without nests
Rain and wind rend flowerbeds
My body and soul in disrepair
日頭西走欲落海
倦鳥欲歸岫不在
雨拍風吹庭花亂
妾身不堪心已殘

- Dark clouds swallow the sky
- Thunderclaps silence the spring
- Specters of disaster by my side
- Speakers of death by my ears
- 烏雲漸漸起
- 春雷霆袂停
- 敢是催命符
- 聲聲催人命

The Sun is setting into the sea
Tired birds are without nests
Rain and wind rend flowerbeds
My body and soul in disrepair
Rain and wind ravage flowers
My body and soul in despair
頭西走欲落海
倦鳥欲歸岫不在
雨拍風吹庭花亂
妾身不堪心已殘
雨拍風吹庭花亂
妾身不堪心已殘
