初恋女 (Girl of First Love)

This is a beautiful song. It is the theme song of the movie “初恋”.

Title: 初恋女 (Girl of First Love)
Singer: ?
Lyrics: 戴望舒
Music: 陈歌辛
English translation: 李杀 (Xah Lee)
我走遍漫漫的天涯路
我望断遥远的云和树
多少的往事堪重数
你呀你在何处

我难忘你哀怨的眼睛
我知道你那沉默的情意
你牵引我到一个梦中
我却在别个梦中忘记你

啊...我的梦和遗忘的人
啊...受我最初祝福的人
终日我灌溉着蔷薇
却让幽蘭枯萎
I have roamed all the roads
I have seen past the clouds and trees
How many memories are worth recounting
You, O, you; where are you?

I cannot forget your pining eyes
I understood your quiet affections
You lead me into a dream
Though I have forgotten you in another

O... my dream and my forgotten one
O... the one who had my first blessing
Daily I tend to baby roses
In derelict is the quite orchid

Note: 蔷薇 = Baby Rose. The 蘭 in 幽蘭 refers to 蘭花 = Orchid.
