Skies of History sang by Leotta Mo (Chinese song translation) 历史的天空 - 毛阿敏

The gleam of swords and spears have grown dim,
The sound of battle drums have receded into the distance;
Flashing before the eyes one after another,
are those vivid faces full of life.
The ancient roads are blanketed by yellow earth,
And abandoned are the once fiery torches of border walls.
Oh timeless ages, yet you cannot take away
that long list of remembered names.

Victory and defeat ah who is to decide?
And are there no evidence for prosperity and declines?
The storm clouds have dissipated in a single night,
and with it the time-space changes.

Isn't coming together and going apart a matter of time?
Isn't marrying and separating a matter of trust and emotions?
As long as one's life duties are fulfilled,
why bother about judgement after death?
While the Laanger River has the force to draw tears,
So too, does the Laanger River have the power to inspire songs.
The skies of history have its bright stars,
while a spirit of heroic intent,
pervades and spills over humanity.

暗淡了刀光剑影

远去了鼓角铮鸣

眼前飞扬着一个个

鲜活的面容

湮没了黄尘古道

荒芜了烽火边城

岁月啊你带不走

那一串串熟悉的姓名

兴亡谁人定 啊

盛衰岂无凭 啊

一页风云散 啊

变幻了时空

聚散皆是缘 啊

离合总关情 啊

担当生前事 啊

何计身后评

长江有意化作泪

长江有情起歌声

历史的天空闪烁几颗星

人间一股英雄气

在驰骋纵横
