水袖过桥｜江南戏曲抒情｜完整美术MV｜@liwei

Inside the song and film

The song has ended, but moonlight remains on the bridge. Water sleeves come to rest while longing lingers. Lanterns, stone lanes and a small opera stage leave unspoken feelings to the wind of Jiangnan. Water Sleeves Across the Bridge brings lithograph-inspired paper and layered colour into the soft light of silk, letting a figure on a bridge, a lamplit stage and a quiet water town answer one another. Its public musical brief draws on Yue and Huangmei opera colours: a theatrical-ballad direction for this original song, not a documentary performance of a traditional opera.

[Intro]
桥边一盏旧花灯，
照见水袖半分春。

[Verse 1]
小楼昨夜雨初停，
青石巷口有人听。
一声唱到江南岸，
半是相思半是云。

[Verse 2]
你从桥上慢慢来，
衣上月色不忍开。
我把一句未完话，
藏进檐前燕子怀。

[Refrain]
水袖过桥，风也轻轻摇，
一寸心事一寸潮。
若你听见我唱到，
莫问归期早不早。

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3]
戏台深处灯花小，
台下人间梦未老。
一生多少离合调，
都在眉间慢慢绕。

[Bridge]
不是繁华留不住，
是你名字太清楚。
一转身，烟雨满路，
还把相思唱成故土。

[Final Refrain]
水袖过桥，风也轻轻摇，
一寸心事一寸潮。
愿这曲子陪你到，
月落江南第几桥。

[Outro]
桥边花灯又一更，
水袖轻轻送故人。
