The Moon Represents My Heart
HAha~ i've been going gaga over this song ever since last nite. So, to put my preshi skills to good use, i will try to translate the Chinese lyrics of this Theresa Teng song into English. The numbers 1,2,3,4 represent the tone of the words in mandarin and i'm using this because i cant write chinese characters here so it's all in hanyu pinyin. so here goes:
Yue4 Liang4 Dai4 Biao3 Wo3 De Xin1 - The Moon Represents My Heart

Ni3 wen4 wo3 ai4 ni3 you3 duo1 shen1
You ask how deep my love for you is
Wo3 ai4 ni3 you3 ji3 fen1
My love for you is significant
Wo3 de qing2 ye3 zhen1
My affection is genuine
Wo3 de ai4 ye3 zhen1
And so is my love
Yue4 liang4 dai4 biao3 wo3 de xin1
The Moon represents my heart
Second Stanza
