Stefanie Sun (Sun Yan Zi, 孙燕姿) – Mulan’s Passion (Mulan Qing, 木兰情) English/Chinese/Pinyin Lyrics

19 Nov

Here are the lyrics to Stefanie Sun’s new song for Hua Mulan. I didn’t translate the lyrics myself, credit goes to here and the Chinese lyrics come from here. However, the pinyin translation I did myself, so you can sing along even if you don’t know Chinese! Please note, for the pinyin lyrics I added a repeat of the chorus which is how it is in the MV. Really loving this song!

Chinese:

我看的見雲在天上混亂的飛
我聽的見滾滾沙場埋一滴淚
這是誰的沙漠 我忘了我是誰
又是誰 讓這天灰

]醒在黑山睡在黃河風吹往北
昨日故鄉東市駿馬在等著誰
鐵衣下的你我 從患難到心碎
我問天 是白是黑

一顆心葬了幾滴淚
一生情背我往前飛
記住這天地中的美
滄海世界 一眼成灰

我想喝家裏的井水
卻吞下生死的滋味
就讓我敬往事一杯
對自己說 絕不後退

English:

I saw the clouds…wandering aimlessly in the sky
I heard a teardrop in the midst of the raging sand
Who does this desert belongs to?

I’ve forgotten who I am
And who…turns this sky grey?
I woke up on the black mountain,
Lying next to the Yellow river…

The winds are howling to the north
Where were the horses at the market in my homeland waiting for?

Under the leaded armor,
You and me…. through thick and thin,
Our hearts are shattering

I asked the heavens… what is black or white?
How many drops of tears can one heart bury?
How I’ve hung on because of my love?
I’ll remember the beauty in this land and sky

The world …turns to dust in an instant

I want to drink the water from the well in my home
But all I tasted was life and death
Let me toast to my fond memories
To say to myself…I won’t turn back

Pinyin:

wŏ kān de jiàn yún zài tiān shàng hùn luàn de fēi
wŏ tīng de jiàn gŭn gŭn shā chăng mái yī dī lèi
zhè shì shéi de shā mò wŏ wàng le wŏ shì shéi
yòu shì shéi ràng zhè tiān huī

xĭng zài hēi shān shuì zài huáng hé fēng chuī wàng bĕi
zuó rì gù xiāng dōng shì jùn mă zài dĕng zhù shéi
tiĕ yī xià de nĭ wŏ cōng huàn nàn dào xīn suì
wŏ wèn tiān shì bái shì hēi

yī kē xīn zàng le jī dī lèi
yī shēng qíng bēi wŏ wăng qián fēi
jì zhu zhè tiān de zhòng dì mĕi
cāng hăi shì jiè yī yăn chéng huī

wŏ xiăng hē jiā de jĭng shuĭ
què tūn xià shēng sĭ de zī wèi
jiù ràng wŏ wăng shì yī bēi

    Thank you SO much for this translation. I am Irish with low level Mandarin. I love the fact that you translated to pinyin WITH the tones. Thanks again. Just a question – how do the tones apply when you are singing? they don’t seem to be so strictly adhered to.

    • peachai 21/02/2011 at 12:33 pm #

      That’s correct! When singing, the tones aren’t used as much because… well… you’re singing! But goodluck and you’re welcome :)

    LOVE!!!♥

    Thanks for posting. I bought the movie and heard the music throughout it, and then the song at the end. Even though, I couldn’t understand it, I felt like the emotions in it. Stefanie sun has an amazing voice. Do you have any other songs you would recommend that is easy to follow with the pinyin, I am trying to teach myself it, but it is quite hard and I find seeing and hearing the words together really helps me remember and understand.
    Again, thanks for posting!
