Love's Offering

Lyrics: Yu Zheng, Composer: Tan Xuan

Sung by Yang Mi

To hold you in my hands, I'll burn incense in reverence

Cutting out a piece of candlelight, I'll light up the scriptures

No need for a heartwarming experience, just a love affair

Love that hurts at the end of the day, crying in despair

I'll spend my whole life trying to feed you

I only hope that you stop and turn your gaze

Please give me unlimited love and the power to be loved

It will take me one more life, but it won't be enough for you.

I just want you to stop looking at me

Give me the power to love and be loved

Let me rest in peace under the Bodhi and contemplate

I put you in my heart and close my palms

I silently ask God to guide me

I don't ask for a long time to come, but just to be beside me

I am tired of getting drunk in the land of tenderness, and sing softly.

I've spent my whole life trying to feed you

I only hope you'll stop looking at me

Give me the power to love and be loved

Let me rest in peace under the Bodhi and meditate

I've spent my whole life trying to feed you

There are so many troubles in this world that I have to forget

Your old look floats in the sea of bitterness

The sea of bitterness. I realized that I've already stepped out of the red dust.
