In the lonely night
One can hear
The sound of a flute
And the tones of a zither
Their soulful melody
Mixed in tranquil harmony
Gently carried by the wind
The swaying of fallen petals
Along the rustling of the leaves
A sight to see under the moon
As two lovers share a single moment
Their love in full bloom
Forbidden but yet enticed
Such secret love comes with a price
Found, forced and torn apart
A pair of broken hearts
A jade hairpin
A bejeweled dagger
Tokens of their love to each other
Now used as their only means of escape
Death reunited their love
In the Heavens far above
