Yoga Lin You Jia of Xing Guang Bang and Jade Liu Li Yang who both released their debut albums in the first week of last month had a duet called The Legend or Chuan Shuo which was included in both albums. This duet is the ending theme song of the Mandarin version [read: dubbed] of the Korean drama, The Legend, which is also known as The Story Of The First King’s Four Gods. This epic drama was produced with a huge budget of USD$46 million and the whole production took nearly 4 years. This 24-episode series is also the comeback drama for heartthrob Bae Yong Joon, star of Winter Sonata, after his disappointing role in April Snow. In addition to the impressive budget and cast, The Legend had an equally stunning computer-generated images [CGI] for a breath-taking visual effects.

Here’s the lyric for you to sing along [yes, I’ll try to post more lyrics in the future]:

女：宇宙洪荒那時候

第一句愛是誰說出口
di yi ju ai shi shui shuo chu kou
who will the be first to say the word ‘love’

當時的他　如何形容
dang shi de ta ru he xing rong
how will they describe the person at that time

對方　聽懂不懂
dui fang ting dong bu dong
will the other person understand

男：開天闢地了以後
kai tian pi di le yi hou
after the sky and earth has opened up

第一對戀人什麼結果
di yi dui lian ren shen me jie guo
what will be the ending for the first pair of lovers

洞穴湖泊　日升月落
dong xue hu po ri sheng yue luo
caves and rivers, rising of the sun and setting of the moon

他們　愛了多久
ta men ai le duo jiu
how long have they loved each other

如果我們那時就相遇
ruo guo wo men na shi hou jiu xiang yu
if we met at that time

會不會愛得比較放心
hui bu hui ai de bi jiao fang xin
would we have loved more assuredly

合：也許分離　還没被發明　來折磨愛情
ye xu fen li hai mei bei fa ming
maybe separation was yet to exist

*chorus begins
男：一千次輪迴都不錯過
yi qian ci lun hui dou bu cuo guo
even thousand times of reincarnation, will still meet

女：一萬里相隨都不放手
yi wan li xiang sui dou be fang shou
even ten thousand times, will not let go

合：在每個盡頭　再約好碰頭
zai mei ge jin tou zai yue hao peng tou
at every end, will arrange again to meet

再睜開眼　就認出你我
zai zheng kai yan jiu ren chu ni wo
open eyes again and will recognize each other

女：一千次輪迴足不足夠
yi qian ci lun hui zu bu zu gou
thousand times of reincarnation, is it enough?

男：一萬里漂泊又算什麼
yi wan li piao bo you suan shen me
what do ten thousand times of drifting mean?
*chorus ends

合：這人海遼闊　愛總被磋跎
zhe ren mei liao kuo ai zong bei cuo tuo
this person who is yet to feel love is always being hindered

總該　留一篇傳說
zong gai liu yi pian chuan shuo

男：幸好你有我
xin hao ni you wo

合：一起写一篇传说
yi qi xie yi pian chuan shuo
let’s leave behind a legend together
