from the album SHADOW op.1: Go East
選自唱片《影子作品壹號：去東方》
Sung by SHADOW
演唱：影子
Washing the sky
水洗的天空
Dying mountain pikes
染青了群峰
Lake's on the paper
湖在紙面
Fish's down the brush
魚在筆下
Through the inky lotus leaves
游過墨色的荷葉
swimming from the Tang Dynasty
從唐代游來

Washing the spring
水浸的春色
Dying summer green
染碧了夏日
Rain's on the paper
雨在紙上
Bird's down the brush
鳥在筆端
Through the inky bamboo trees
飛出墨色的竹林
flying from the Song Dynasty
自宋朝飛來

Leaving the cloud and smoke to the white
且把縷縷雲煙留成畫中空白
Don't disclose
不去揭開
a riddle of thousand years
這道千年不破的謎
Keeping the sound and echo in the quite
且把陣陣天籟化作無聲寫意
Don't disturb
別去驚擾
the lonely Xiao player
那個獨自吹簫的人

江南好
江南好
風景舊曾諳
風景舊曾諳
日出江花紅勝火
日出江花紅勝火
春來江水綠如藍
春來江水綠如藍
能不憶江南
能不憶江南

Leaving the cloud and smoke to the white
且把縷縷雲煙留成畫中空白
Don't disclose
不去揭開
a riddle of thousand years
這道千年不破的謎
Keeping the sound and echo in the quite
且把陣陣天籟化作無聲寫意
Don't disturb
別去驚擾
the lonely Xiao player
那個獨自吹簫的人
