作曲：头条梦三
作词：头条梦三
Emerald canals and a silver moon
The fragrance of peonies a fleeting tender tune
The twenty-four bridges where the music softly blows
A city of illusions where the deep river flows
Is it a place of fortune or a place of great regret
A thousand years of stories that we cannot forget
Yangzhou A jade illusion shining in the night
With your twenty-four bridges bathed in pale moonlight
A dream of perfect qionghua a flower in the air
For every fleeting beauty there's a quiet shadow there
Yangzhou Yangzhou A beauty and a care
They speak of wealth and trading and a thousand golden coins
Of merchants on the water where the river deftly joins
But for every winning gamble there's a bargain to be made
A cost to every profit a debt that will be paid
The song of the jade flute can both heal and can deceive
A city built on trading making us believe
Yangzhou A jade illusion shining in the night
With your twenty-four bridges bathed in pale moonlight
A dream of perfect qionghua a flower in the air
For every fleeting beauty there's a quiet shadow there
Yangzhou Yangzhou A beauty and a care
Beneath the surface sparkle the currents have their say
A simple man seeks justice a greedy man's affray
Zheng Tingyu's keen observation the masks that people wear
In this city of a hundred trades the soul is laid out bare
