Chinese Yueju Opera: Between Tears And Smiles

Cast:CHEN Huidi(陈慧迪)
Female role:YUAN School(袁派)

The lyric is:
你叹连连一声离开我 You left me with sighs
我泪汪汪双眼又模糊 I cried out with tears
这阴森森堂楼无生趣 With no joy of life the house is cold
黑漆漆一座新坟墓 and dark as a new grave
我孤单单单身无靠傍 I'm alone with no one to rely on
陪凶煞煞恶魔青春磨 My youthood is lingering away with ferocious eyes around
呜咽咽人前不能哭 Held back tears in front of others
心慌慌心比黄连苦 I feel pain and suffer like
痛煎煎姐去无人痛 Sister left me with no one to tend on
血淋淋被噬等干枯 My life is eaten up by the passing time
昏沉沉诀别亲人后 All my loved ones are away from me
恍惚惚万念俱灰无 I feel hopeless in a trance
夜漫漫长夜更难熬 The night is too long to stay
凄惨惨日子昏昏过 The day is idled away
一阵阵痛一阵阵悔 with only remorse and misery
混沌沌此身随俗波 The only way out is to end my life
我情切切拜托身后事 I plea a favour of my sister
请姐姐莫忘代妹探慈母 ask her to take care of my dear mother

The lyrics are beautifully wriiten. My chinese has improved after watching many such shows. Thanks.

I like the rapid vibrato this singer uses; is that typical of most female Yueju singers?

I do not understand anything :d
