The Red River is red with heavy alluvium/Still passing down a love song/Still a story of couples/Still love, forever here.
The Red River is red with heavy alluvium.
Still circulating a love song
Still a couple's story
Still love, forever here
Love to the core
If you are not satisfied on the ground, fly to the sky.
That's love, my friend!
Which king can break the oath of youth?
Heavy because of meaning, deep because of soul
Even without a shirt, clean of silver and gold
His heart and her heart
Beat together, in rhythm together
No need for ivory, jade, pearls
Simple material but rich in love
Love story of hundreds of years
A thousand years later the full moon still shines brightly
Oh, whose love is as cold as lime
Noble and humble are distinguished-go to Da Hoa (*)
The Red River is still heavy with alluvium.
This side of the river is eroding, the other side is alluvial land.
Only one love story!
