I’m hoping for your help translating this song. The video already has a translation, but I’m trying to translate word for word for learning purposes. I’ve gotten most of it thanks to Google translate/Yabbla, but I’m still missing some words (shown as ? below). I think I may have also made some mistakes, as I had to guess at the right meaning sometimes.
I prefer to break down the words as much as possible — for instance, translating shiju as “poetry sentence” rather than “verse.” As a learner, this helps me learn more words. So if you see any places where there is more opportunity for that, or any other improvements, please let me know! Xie xie!
