歌詞

The moon rises over the sea, hearts connected from afar

Wind stirs the osmanthus shadows, stars cleanse the clear pool

Who lifts a cup to their reflection, softly asking when

When will the bright moon return? I ask with wine in hand

Endless skies stretch on, the night grows deeper still

Leaning on the balcony, thoughts sink slowly within

Mountains share the moonlight, a thousand miles the same heart

People depart, yet the song continues, shadows fall on the guzheng

Jade rabbit gently shakes its fan, Chang’e dances in the clouds

Osmanthus fragrance drifts away, floating through spring again

Palaces of heaven seem near, yet parting is real

In this sleepless night, who will send me my longing?

May we live long, though miles keep us apart

Hearts follow the moon, unchanged through old years

Moonlight lights the road home, yet cannot reach my longing

I send my love with the moon—who will share it full with me?

In the courtyard, white dew falls, shadows of osmanthus scatter on the steps

Cold winds blow, drifting sounds enter dreams

A jade flute sings across autumn waters, one tune sent on red paper

Fleeting light shines on distant travelers, thoughts rise like smoke

Looking northwest to my distant home, southeast the moon is full again

Three shadows meet in reflection, tears fall among the living

Flowers bloom for another season, time turns a thousand years

This love is hard to fully speak, only sent to tomorrow

May we live long, though miles keep us apart

Hearts follow the moon, unchanged through old years

Moonlight lights the road home, yet cannot reach my longing

I send my love with the moon—who will share it full with me?

One flute plays a clear tune, one stroke writes longing

Who listens from afar, sharing this moment with me?

May we live long, hearts together under the moon

Moonlight speaks for us, regardless of human years

This night, free of worldly dreams, this love beyond all words

I raise a cup to the moon, sharing drunkenness on earth

Oh moon, oh moon

Tonight, who sleeps beside you?
