Lyrics of "The Flower Burial Song" by Zheng Xulan

Song: Song of Burying Flowers

Lyricist: Cao Xueqin

Composer: Wang Liping

Singer: Zheng Xulan

Album : "A Dream of Red Mansions"

Lyrics:

The flowers are withering and the flowers are flying all over the sky

Who can pity the red fragrance when it fades

The hairspring is soft and fluttering Spring Pavilion

The fallen catkins lightly touch the embroidered curtains

Three hundred and sixty days in a year

The wind, the sword, the frost and the sword force each other

How long can the bright flowers last

Once wandering, it is hard to find

When flowers bloom, they are easy to see but hard to find

Before the steps, sadness buries the flower man

Leaning alone on a flower hoe and secretly shedding tears

Sprinkling on empty branches and seeing traces of blood

May I grow wings under my ribs

Fly to the end of the sky with the flowers

Where is the incense hill at the end of the sky

Where is the incense hill at the end of the sky

It is not like a brocade bag to collect the beautiful bones

A handful of pure earth covers it Fengliu

The nature is clean and it comes and goes again

It is better than the filth and the ditch

I will be buried now if I die

Uncertain When will I be buried?

Now I will be buried in flowers, and I will laugh like a fool

When will I be buried, who will I know?

The end of the world

Where There are fragrant mounds everywhere

Where the sky ends

Where are the fragrant mounds

Just watch the spring flowers gradually fall

It is the time when beauty dies of old age

Once the spring is gone, the beauty is old

The flowers fall and people die, and we don’t know

The flowers fall and people die, we don’t know

The flowers fall and people die, we don’t know I don’t know
