Excerpts from the lyrics:
"He Wenxiu, Determining Destiny" (Yin Guifang)
No one responded to the loud shouts, and there was no movement in the Yang family. Could it be that Lan Ying didn't hear it? Could it be that no one in the family thought of the Yang family's poverty? Could it be that they didn't have money to predict their fate? I was originally Mr. Wang from Kyoto, and I came to Haining to make a name for myself. Rich families call it a fate test, and they charge five taels of silver for fortune gold; middle-class families call it a fortune test, and wait for tea, rice, and snacks; poor families call it a fortune test, and they don't charge half a cent of silver. If there is a child in the family, the husband will also give a gift of money, including 24 copper coins, to buy cakes for the child.
"Prince of the Desert, Determining Fate" (Yili: Yin Guifang, Luolan: Qi Yaxian)
Yili: People with bad luck tell their bad luck.
Roland: There was a desolate sound on the strings. Ask the lady why you want to take a life test?
Yili: Everyone has his or her own affairs, and I’m afraid people will ask about sad things.
Roland: Ask the lady, please give the prince’s surname and name. Ask the lady, what year, month and time he was born.
Yili: Roland was originally a prince’s name, but he didn’t know the character of the hour.
Roland: The prince is a nineteen-year-old boy. He was born on the 10th day of October. Among the twelve zodiac signs, he is a dragon. I asked the lady if she has a fortune-telling spirit?
Yili: How is the prince’s fate?
Roland: Holding the harp in my hand, my heart is miserable. I calculate my own fate. Sitting across from me is my beloved, but I have eyesight and cannot see.
"Love in Mountains and Rivers" , Send a message" (Shen Xi: Yin Guifang, female: Yuan Xuefen)
Shen Xi: You must be careful about this oral message. Do not tell others about it. It comes out of my mouth and enters your heart. I agreed to send it. Be trustworthy.
Female (White): Since I agreed, how can I regret it? Please tell me.
Shen Xi: (White) Ah, Xianmei (Singing) Ah Xianmei...
Female: Ah?
Shen Xi: (white) Hey, I was reading a letter to you! (Singing) My faith in you now is like meeting you face to face. You are as beautiful as a fairy. I love you infinitely. My dear sister, you don’t know when I call you. I miss you but you don’t see me. I talk to you. If you don't answer, what I'm saying to you is all from the bottom of my heart, ah, virtuous sister, I fell in love with you at first sight, I wonder if you can fall in love with me (ah)?
Female: I fell in love with you at first sight...
Shen Xi: You and I just fall in love with each other.
