W:This Green Island is like a boat, floating in the moonlight,
W:My darling, you too are floating in the sea of my heart,
W:Let the sound of my song follow the breeze, blowing open the curtain of your window,
W:Let my love follow the flowing water, endlessly pouring out its feelings for you.
W:
W:The long shadows of the palm trees cannot conceal my love,
W:The bright beauty of the moonlight casts its brilliance into my heart.
W:This Green Island night is so calm and serene,
W:My darling, why are you silent, saying nothing?
