I have sung a song, which is Chinese classical style. Not only the sinuous melody is classical, but the lyrics are classical ,which are written in the form of Chinese ancient poetry. About one thousand years ago, in the Song Dynasty of China, there is a form of poetry, which is for the lyrics of popular songs. Thus this form of poetry is called Lyric of Song Dynasty. In Lyric of Song Dynasty, most sentences need rhyming. Not only that, the tones of all the words are regular. That is to say, most words in a Lyric of Song Dynasty must use certain tone, level tone or oblique tone. Just because of this, this song is very fair-sounding, even if I don't sing well.
The name of the song is "Beauties' disaster", which is the theme song of the famous costume drama " The Legend of Zhen Huan". In the TV serial, there were many female roles, who were both beautiful and smart. But all of them were women in emperor's harem, fighting for the same man's love. In the palace struggle, some of them spent their life in lonely until die, and others were wronged and died. A few women died a violent death. A women even killed her natural sister, just for being the empress. Even the main actress Zhen Huan had experienced much suffering. In addition to others' persecution, her husband ,the emperor had wronged her. Maybe she had never got the emperor's ture love. Instead the other man had fallen in love with her. But the emperor persecuted the man she loved most to death. At last, she became the lonely empress dowager without anyone's love.
The song is written by Liu huan, who is the most famous musician, singer in China. He has sing the song for opening ceremony of 2008 Olympic Games.
The most sad thing is that, just like the name of this song, the original singer has left us forever, because of cancer. Her name is Yao Beina, who has divine voice. If she's still alive, she should be at age of 36, the same with me. But she has still stayed at 33.
这是一首中国古风歌曲，不仅旋律古香古色，歌词也是按宋词来填写。这首歌就是中国著名的古装电视剧《甄嬛传》的主题歌。在这个电视剧里，许多美丽、聪慧的女子，为了一个男人——皇帝而争风吃醋。在宫廷半争中，有的人孤独终老，有的含冤而死，甚至有的人死于非命。还有的人为了成为皇后，杀死了自己亲生姐姐。即使女主角甄嬛也遭受了很多痛苦，被排挤、迫害，被皇帝冤枉。也许皇帝从未爱过她吧。反而是皇帝的弟弟真心的爱她，可惜被皇帝害死了。最后，她成了为太后，没有人爱的孤独的太后。
这首歌的唱尽了悲剧的味道。然而，她的原唱却是一个悲伤的故事。姚贝娜已经永远的离开了我们。如果她还活着，应该是36周岁，和我同岁，我只比她大4天。而她的生命却永远的定格在33岁。
