Love the World

In the appointed years, layer upon layer of clouds and mist hang over Yunxi. By the banks of Shuihe, we once knew each other.

Knowing someone, yet never finding the way back; forgetting each other from the very beginning.

Seated upright in the palace hall, how much empty regret remains?

The waves at Changsha have ebbed away. I gaze at heaven and earth in remorse. I toyed with the world, but whom was I deceiving?

Once we stayed by each other's side, knowing fate's decree. Playing chess in the void, I pitied every kind of person and relied on you.

Now it has all passed, leaving me undeserving of my fame.

If the heart still remains, I suppose even when heaven and earth grow old, fools will go on deceiving themselves. All things must end, but resentment knows no bounds.

Life and death come and go. Why remember? I think of old friends, forgetting who cherished whom. Who understands this resentment now?

Fate has gone its own way, and I regret that you stir up dust wherever you go. Riding the wind through the void, the path seems endless.
