"Wang Ning Mei" - Chen Li
Lyrics: Cao Xueqin
Music composed by: Wang Liping
One is Langyuan Immortal Pa
p>One is a beautiful jade without flaws
If there is no romance
I met him again in this life
If there is a romance
How can one's thoughts become empty in the end
Ah~~
One sighs in vain
One is worried about nothing
The other is in the water The moon
One is a flower in the mirror
Imagine how many tears there can be in the eyes
How can autumn flow to winter and spring to summer
Ah~~Extended information

This song mainly describes the story of the "love ideal" of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, the hero and heroine of Dream of Red Mansions, which was finally shattered due to various reasons. Lin Daiyu died in tears. The song adopts the technique of first rising and then suppressing, expressing the inner pain of those who were persecuted by the feudal society and unable to get married. It conveys the sad and sad emotions inexhaustibly, and has a strong artistic appeal.
