"The Moon is like a Lemon"



This is a song, I became enamored with thru the old versions
featured with Yao Surong as the lead singer.  The version that
I would like to present is no longer available on the internet on
You Tube, in the Taiwanese film "King of Singers' where she
sings it with a trumpet player walking on a patio at night beneath
a full moon. 

The song was also featured with accompanying pin yin, a form
of phonetically spelled Chinese, so now the only available pin yin
is the first verse/  I have the full version stored away on my
Tumblr, somewhere but it is very hard to locate since it goes up
to about 1800 pages.

Here is the Pin Yin version

 yue er xiang ning meng, gao gao di gua tian kong
月儿像柠檬, 高高地挂天空。
wo lia yao yao dang dang
我俩摇摇荡荡,
san bu zai yue se zhong
散步在月色中。
jiu xiang shi yu er zai shuang you hai zhong
就象是鱼儿在双游海中,
liang pang de ye shi shu shi hai lang cong cong
两旁的椰子树是海浪重重。
duo xiao yao, qi le rong rong, mo mo qing yi non
多逍遥,其乐融融,脉脉情意脓。
wo lia yao yao dang dang
我俩摇摇荡荡,
san bu zai ning meng yi ban yue se zhong
散步在柠檬一般月色中。
