当春芳草地　万物皆献媚

In the spring grass

All take part in a coquettish dance

为着什么事　抛了妻　游远地　长别离

Why did you

Leave your wife

And go to a faraway land?

It’s been so long

忆昔别离时　二八少年期　到如今 霜华两须垂　

When you left

I was just 16 years old

And now, today

The hair near my temples is speckled with grey

叹一声　青春不再来 夜来床上坐　两眼泪哀哀

Hear me sigh

My youth shall not return

At night I sit at my bedside

Eyes brimming with tears

君你设使亡　亦当入梦来

If you had perished in that foreign land

Wouldn't you have told me in my dreams?

存亡不可知　将琴弹别调　又恐坏名节

Dead or alive, who knows?

I could forget you, I could strum a different tune

But then I'd sully my reputation as a woman of virtue

多望春花开来深闺地　深闺终将凄凉泪滴

I still await a spring blossom alone in this maiden’s chamber,

Where my tears never stop stinging and all I have is

心伤事 又心伤 空断肠　苦夜长　泪沾裳　悲伤

Grief, heartbreak, emptiness, unbearably long nights, tear-stained clothes, sorrow

「蓝。掉」从一段19世纪的南洋移民史回望〈百家春〉，最初David想以「番客婶」为题，写一首闽南语歌曲，经由作词人王昭华建议流传于闽、粤一带的民间乐曲〈百家春〉，歌词完全切中情境。因此「蓝。掉」展开了一段〈百家春〉的寻古与探新之旅，并邀请万芳一起诠释以五拍重塑的〈百家春〉。
