Chinese Yueju Opera-Early Spring-A Song of A Widow

Cast:HUANG Ying(黄莺)
Female role:YUAN school(袁派)

Lyric:
寡妇门前是非多 Widow is a synonym of troubles
蜚短流长莫奈何 Rumours and slanders suffocate me
巷议声声入耳痛 Gossips of women gnaw my ears
儿歌声声刺心啊窝 and children's song stab into my heart
伤我孤寡犹可忍 I could endure the tease on my widowhood
污损恩人太罪过 but never could bear the abuse on my benefactor
肖先生非亲非眷菩萨心 Mr.Xiao was not my relative but so considerate to me
清清白白来援助 He helpt me out of difficulty
雪中送炭驱春寒 with winter nessasities at the time I was in desperation
救我一家上活呀路 His supports ignite my hope for life
哪想到飞来臭名野爸爸 Who knows he was rumored as my child's father
岂能让他背黑锅 How can I have the heart to let him suffer
啊呀背黑锅 the bad reputation?
违心不进学堂门 My child quitted school
免得闲言兴风波 in order not to arouse any more gossips
忍痛关死寡妇门 I lock myself inside the house
推出春风寒自锁 and also lock my heart and affection
