Chinese Yueju Opera: Prince of Desert-Fortune Telling

The prince went into exile and blind in both eyes.He met his old love princess and did fortune-telling for her.

The lyric is:

手扶琴儿心悲惨 With zither in hand I'm so miserable
自己的命儿我自己算 My own life and fate I will tell
对面坐着是我心爱人Opposite me is the girl I love
可叹我有目不能看 However I am blind not able to see her
(monologue)My Lady!
（Sing）
开言叫声好小姐,王子的命儿你听仔细 Please listen carefully about prince's fate
他是个眉清目秀聪明儿 He was good-looking and clever
西萨皇宫的好子弟 One of the best princes in Xisa Palace
父母锺爱如珍宝 His parents loved him so much
钦赐玉佩作标记 Awarded him a valuable jade pendant
玉佩上沙漠王子四个字 There were four words as Prince Desert engraved on the jade
千载万世永不移 would never be fade away
正望日子多欢乐 The life was so happy
谁知平地风波起 When trouble unexpectedly came
安达叛变遭不幸 Anda turned traitor and revolt against the Xisa king
一家骨肉各分离 The family was broken and apart
乳娘忠心救王子 Prince's nursing mother Helpt him at a critical moment
他从宝剑之下逃出去 He servived from the massacre
光阴流水容易过 Time past so quickly
一季过去又一季 Several years later
王子长成到十七岁 The prince was already 17
人海漂航在客地 He drifted to another country
无意之中遇公主 and met a princess unintentionally
公主的芳名叫依丽 The pricess was called Yili
