Rainy Conversations in the Ba Mountains

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

You wrote to ask me

I hold my pen, unable to set it to paper for so long

Night rain falls in the Ba Mountains

The autumn pool swells full, water spills over the stone embankment

Raindrops tap against the eaves

Each sound，strikes deep in my heart

[Pre-Chorus]

The candlewick formed a charred blossom

I trimmed it a little, and the flame shone bright again

[Chorus]

君问归期未有期 — You ask when I will return, but no date is set

巴山夜雨涨秋池 — Night rain in the Ba Mountains swells the autumn pool

When, will I return to you

却话巴山夜雨时—Then we will speak again of that rainy night in the Ba Mountains

Tell the story of tonight's rain, as a memory

The sound of rain is filled，with your name

[Verse 2]

You are in the north thinking of me

I am in the Ba Mountains, counting raindrops

Beneath the same night sky

A thousand miles apart, we each sigh alone

I think of the everyday things you spoke of

Thinking until I feel a little, dazed and adrift

[Pre-Chorus]

When can I go back

Trim the candle with you, murmuring softly on and on

[Chorus]

君问归期未有期 — You ask when I will return, but no date is set

巴山夜雨涨秋池 — Night rain in the Ba Mountains swells the autumn pool

When, will I return to you

却话巴山夜雨时—Then we will speak again of that rainy night in the Ba Mountains

Tell the story of tonight's rain, as a memory

The sound of rain is filled，with your name

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]

何当共剪西窗烛 — When shall we trim the candle together by the west window

Two silhouettes, quietly leaning together

Then we will speak again of

Tonight in the Ba Mountains, the patter of this rain

Will you laugh at me

For making an ordinary rainy night, sound so forlorn

[Bridge]

Imagine that evening

By the west window, the candlewick flowers, then is trimmed again

You ask whether the rainy night was cold

I turn the sound of rain, into a story

You lean closer with a smile

I will make up for every rainy night we missed together

I will stop writing here for tonight

The rain still falls, the letter paper is already wet

[Verse 4]

I fold the letter and slip it into my sleeve

First thing tomorrow morning, I will send it

There is still no date for my return

But my heart, is more impatient than the wind

Whether or not the rain in Bashan stops

Put it all in a letter, waiting for you to open

[Final Chorus]

君问归期未有期 — You ask when I will return, but no date is set

巴山夜雨涨秋池 — Night rain in the Ba Mountains swells the autumn pool

When, will I return to you

却话巴山夜雨时—Then we will speak again of that rainy night in the Ba Mountains

Tell the story of tonight's rain, as a memory

The sound of rain is filled，with your name

[Outro]

却话巴山夜雨时—Then we will speak again of that rainy night in the Ba Mountains

Waiting for you to question this night, in every detail
