Elysian Fields
Sorrow Amidst Joy
This is the common fate
Of mortal man
Useless it is to repine
This is the common fate
Of mortal man
Useless
It is to to repine

She's still in her cradle
When her parents die
Although living in luxury
Who will dote on her
Happily she's born too courageous
To take a love affair to heart
Like bright moon and fresh breeze
In a hall of jade
She's matched with handsome husband
May she live with him for long years to make up for her wretched childhood
But over Gaotang Tower
Thе clouds disperse
The rivеr Xiang runs dry
This is the common fate of mortal man
Useless useless it is to repine
Useless of mortal man
Useless it is to repine
Useless
