| Chinese Transcript | Pinyin | English Transcript |
|---|---|---|
| 可——叹—— | Kě⸺ tàn⸺ | Alas! |
| 秋鸿折单复难双 | Qiū hóng zhé dān fù nán shuāng | Two loving souls by death cruelly parted |
| 痴人痴怨恨迷狂 | Chī rén chī yuàn hèn mí kuáng | In madness and grief, a dark path started |
| 只因那邪牲祭伏定祸殃 | Zhǐ yīn nà xié shēngjì fú dìng huòyāng | Calamity was drawn, rituals subverted |
| 若非巾帼拔剑人皆命丧 | Ruòfēi jīn'guó bá jiàn rén jiē mìng sàng | But by her cold steel was death averted |
| 凡缘朦朦仙缘滔 | Fán yuán méngméng xiānyuán tāo | Mortal ties broken, with the adepti she went |
| 天伦散去绛府邀 | Tiānlún sànqù jiàngfǔ yāo | Their abiding place filling paternal bonds rent |
| 朱丝缚绝烂柯樵 | Zhūsī fùjué lànkēqiáo | To her red strings of binding they sent |
| 雪泥鸿迹遥 | Xuě ní hóng jī yáo | And they dwelt long together, content |
| 鹤归不见昔华表 | Hè guī bùjiàn xī huábiǎo | The crane returned to a home without luster |
| 蛛丝枉结魂幡飘 | Zhūsī wǎngjié húnfān piāo | The cobwebs overgrown, the grave-shrouds a-fluster |
| 因果红尘渺渺 | Yīn'guǒ hóngchén miǎomiǎo | But one bond upon her |
| 烟消 | Yān xiāo | This world could not muster |
| 《神女劈观》到这里本该接近尾声 | "Shénnǚ Pīguàn" dào zhèlǐ běn gāi jiējìn wěishēng | Thus does the Divine Damsel's tale duly end |
| 但今日我再添一笔—— | Dàn jīnrì wǒ zài tiān yī bǐ⸺ | But today a new tale I have to append |
| 唱与——诸位——听—— | Chàng yǔ⸺ zhūwèi⸺ tīng⸺ | Which I shall now tell — if you shall attend |
| 曲高未必人不识 | Qǔ gāo wèibì rén bù shí | From the world she seems apart |
| 自有知音和清词 | Zì yǒu zhīyīn hè qīngcí | But there are those who know her heart |
| 红缨猎猎剑流星 | Hóngyīng lièliè jiàn liúxīng | With crimson spear and flashing brand |
| 直指怒潮洗海清 | Zhízhǐ nùcháo xǐ hǎi qīng | To still the raging tides they stand |
| 彼时鹤归 | Bǐshí hè guī | The crane once returned |
| 茫茫天地无依靠 | Mángmáng tiāndì wú yīkào | And once, she was spurned |
| 孤身离去 | Gūshēn lí qù | She turned, and left alone |
| 今日再会 | Jīnrì zàihuì | Now, she might be found |
| 新朋旧友坐满堂 | Xīnpéng jiùyǒu zuò mǎntáng | With friends all around |
| 共聚此时 | Gòngjù cǐshí | To whom she is bound — a home |
