[RE-UPLOAD] 女儿情 Maiden's Love | Journey to the West 西游记 1986 - Chinese, Pinyin & English Translation

[@tempestjun437]

Hi, this is a re-upload because I realised that some of my previous translations were a bit iffy after the fmv got copyrighted. Soooo, here are some references and elaborations :) 00:30 Mandarin ducks are mentioned because in Chinese culture they are a symbol of love, devotion, affection and fidelity because they are always in pairs and are believed to always stay with the same partner. 00:35 The beauty of the gardens is intoxicating. 01:04 The 'precepts and rules' refers to the five precepts of Buddhism - to abstain from killing, stealing, sexual misconduct, dishonesty, and intoxicants. 1:11 天长地久 literally means "as long as the heavens as old as the earth" and basically means forever.
