劈破玉,民间曲调名。流行于明代中叶以后。一般为九句五十一字。
《劈破玉》
要分离,除非天做了地;
要分离,除非东做了西;
要分离,除非官做了吏。
你要分时分不得我,
我要离时离不得你;
就死在黄泉也,
做不得分离鬼!
Broken Jade: Separation
To separate, let heaven fall into earth;
To separate, let east turn into west;
To separate, let greybeard become greenhorn.
You'd rather separate, but I would not;
I'd rather separate, but you would not.
Even if we die, in netherworld,
We are not to be separated.
(王宏印 译)
