Lyrics of "Daughter's Love" by Journey to the West

Title: "Daughter Love"

Singer: Wu Jing

Lyrics: Yang Jie

Song: Xu Jingqing

Lyrics:

Mandarin ducks and butterflies fly in tandem

The garden is full of springtime colors that make people intoxicated

Quietly ask the Holy Monk

Is the daughter beautiful?


































Daughter Is my daughter beautiful

Is my daughter beautiful

What do you say about the king's power and wealth

What are the rules and regulations to be afraid of

I only wish for a long time to come

With the person I love I love you

I wish to be with you always in my life

What do you say about the king's power and wealth

What are the rules and regulations to be afraid of

What do you say about the king's power and wealth

Why should I be afraid of?
