Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “A Thousand Years For A Prajna”
bú zhī wéi hé huā kāi zhōng huì diāo luò
不 知 为 何 花 开 终 会 凋 落
I don’t know why flowers would bloom and eventually wither
diāo luò chéng yī shǒu gē yī shǒu bēi gē
凋 落 成 一 首 歌 一 首 悲 歌
Withering into a song, a sad song
qiān shān wàn shuǐ zhuǎn shēn qù yǐng xiāo suǒ
千 山 万 水 转 身 去 影 萧 索
After thousands of mountains and rivers, turn around and leave behind a lonely figure
zhù dìng shì wǒ xiǔ mìng de xuǎn zé
注 定 是 我 宿 命 的 选 择
It’s destined to be the choice of my fate
xuě shān shā mò gǔ guó héng hé rì luò
雪 山 沙 漠 古 国 恒 河 日 落
Snow mountain, desert, ancient country, sunset on the Ganges River
pú tí shù tiān zhú sēng nà làn tuó
菩 提 树 天 竺 僧 那 烂 陀
Bodhi tree, Indian monk, Nalanda
wàn shuǐ qiān shān qiú zhēn jīng dù kǔ è
万 水 千 山 求 真 经 度 苦 厄
Through thousands of rivers and mountains, I seek the true scriptures
wéi yǒu gù tǔ nán lí shě
唯 有 故 土 难 离 舍
Only the homeland is hard to leave
kǔ nán huà chéng le chuán shuō
苦 难 化 成 了 传 说
The sufferings have transformed into legends
sòng shēng ā mí tuó fó kě jiě tuō
诵 声 阿 弥 陀 佛 可 解 脱
Recite Amitabha, I can achieve relief
qiān zǎi fēng yún guò
千 载 风 云 过
A thousand years passed
cāng hǎi píng sāng tián méi
沧 海 平 桑 田 没
The vast sea is gone, the mulberry field appear
wéi liú shì jiān yī bān ruò
唯 留 世 间 一 般 若
Leaving only a Prajna in the world
kǔ nán huà chéng le chuán shuō
苦 难 化 成 了 传 说
The sufferings have transformed into legends
sòng shēng ā mí tuó fó kě jiě tuō
诵 声 阿 弥 陀 佛 可 解 脱
Recite Amitabha, I can achieve relief
qiān zǎi fēng yún guò
千 载 风 云 过
A thousand years passed
cāng hǎi píng sāng tián méi
沧 海 平 桑 田 没
The vast sea is gone, the mulberry field appear
wéi liú shì jiān yī bān ruò
唯 留 世 间 一 般 若
Leaving only a Prajna in the world
yī shí jiǔ zǎi chūn qù qiū lái jǐ hé
一 十 九 载 春 去 秋 来 几 何
For nineteen years, how many springs come and autumns go
xiū háng kǔ jiā shā báo yī niàn zhí zhe
修 行 苦 袈 裟 薄 一 念 执 着
Hard practice, thin saffron robe, all for one persistent thought
dào dǐ wéi shí me wàng shēng sǐ shě dé
到 底 为 什 么 忘 生 死 舍 得
What on earth make me forget life and death and give up everything
zhōng jiū bú wǎng rén shì yī cuō tuó
终 究 不 枉 人 世 一 蹉 跎
Eventually I’ll live up to my time in mortal world
bú zhī wéi hé shēng líng zǒng huì diāo luò
不 知 为 何 生 灵 总 会 凋 落
I don’t know why lives will always wither
diāo luò chéng yī shǒu gē yī shǒu bēi gē
凋 落 成 一 首 歌 一 首 悲 歌
Withering into a song, a sad song
fán huá rú shuǐ zhuǎn tóu qù yī mò kǔ sè
繁 华 如 水 转 头 去 一 抹 苦 涩
Prosperity is like water, turn around, leaving a touch of bitterness
nài hé wǒ shēn zài suō pó
奈 何 我 身 在 娑 婆
Unfortunately I’m in Saha
kǔ nán huà chéng le chuán shuō
苦 难 化 成 了 传 说
The sufferings have transformed into legends
sòng shēng ā mí tuó fó kě jiě tuō
诵 声 阿 弥 陀 佛 可 解 脱
Recite Amitabha, I can achieve relief
qiān zǎi fēng yún guò
千 载 风 云 过
A thousand years passed
cāng hǎi píng sāng tián méi
沧 海 平 桑 田 没
The vast sea is gone, the mulberry field appear
wéi liú shì jiān yī bān ruò
唯 留 世 间 一 般 若
Leaving only a Prajna in the world
