想问沙漠借那一根曲线
缝件披风为你御寒
用肺腑去触摸你的灵魂
我就在那只火炉边取暖

▲1:=
想问姻缘借那一根红线
深埋生命血脉相连
用丝绸去润泽你的肌肤
我就在那个怀抱里缠绵

▲2:=
你总是随手把银簪 插在太阳上面
万道光芒蓬松着你 长发的波澜
我闻著芬芳跋涉著无限远
只为看清你的容颜

▲3:=
你总不小心把倩影 靠在月亮上面
万顷月光舞动着你 优美的梦幻
我闻著芬芳跋涉著无限远
只为看清你的容颜

▲4:=
谁与美人共浴沙河 互为一天地
谁与美人共枕夕阳 长醉两千年
从未说出我是你的尘埃
但你却是 我的楼兰

My Loulan
(translation by Xah Lee)

I want to borrow a curve from the desert
to sew a cape for you
to touch your soul with my heart
from that fire i catch warmth

▲1:=
i want to borrow an arrow from the cupid
to down us as one
with silk to wet your body
and i tumble in that lair

▲2:=
the silver hairpin you threw on the sun
waves rays from your long hair
i trek a thousand miles from the scent,
to have a glimpse of your face

▲3:=
and you casually lay your face against the moon
waves of rays dancing from your dreams
i trek a thousand miles from the scent,
to have a glimpse of your face

▲4:=
river laid bed, bathed together as one
sun set the sky, for 2 thousand years
i'm but a dust, but you are my Loulan
