M ho phet thang soi kin am nga oi nyin

毋好別廷睡今暗涯愛人
M ho phet thang soi kin am nga oi nyin

Hakka lyrics by Anton Xie

Thian kong koi teu, m sit nyong hin chi to
Thian kong kai nyit boi pian to cit mok
Coi sun an fu ja he khong ten nga muk cip
Ti to nyi nga bui jit kai ten kong
Ngai oi nyi, Ngai si jau nyi
Oh, mo phian nyi

M ho phet thang soi kin am nga oi nyin
Khiu nyi cui sau liu teu nyit chut
Chin thung ti to kak tiam cung jiu fan ko thet
Mui jit fun jit miau tu chit tet
Oh Ngai oi nyi mo phian nyi

Han jiu ki to oi ko kai cit mok nyit ci
Jiu to cak chun ha chiu tung liu ko hi
Ten li teu kam chin kiau teu mo muk cip
Kai si heu ngai che ti kiau
Ti ngai oi nyi, o ngai si jau nyi
Oh.. mo phian nyi

M ho phet thang soi kin am nga oi nyin
Khiu nyi cui sau liu teu nyit chut
Chin thung ti to kak tiam cung jiu fan ko thet
Mui jit fun jit miau tu chit tet
Oh Ngai oi nyi mo phian nyi

M ho phet thang soi kin am nga oi nyin
Khiu nyi cui sau liu teu nyit chut
Chin thung ti to kak tiam cung jiu fan ko thet
Ka li jiu han he nga oi nyi

Tomorrow’s near, never I felt this way
Tomorrow how empty it’ll be that day
It tastes so bitter or are these the tears that I hide
To know that you’re my only light
I love you I need you
Oh, yes I do

Don’t sleep away this night my baby
Please stay with me at least ’till dawn
It hurts to know another hour has gone by
And every minute is worthwhile
I love you Yes I do

How many lonely days are there waiting for me
How many seasons will flow over me
Till the emotions make my tears run dry
At the moments I should cry
For I love you, oh I need you
Oh, yes I do

Don’t sleep away this night my baby
Please stay with me at least ’till dawn
It hurts to know another hour has gone by
And every minute is worthwhile
It makes me so afraid

Don’t sleep away this night my baby
Please stay with me at least ’till dawn
It hurts to know another hour has gone by
The reason is still I love you
