Translation of the song 似火探戈 artist Anita Mui

Chinese (Cantonese)

似火探戈

English translation

The Afire Tango

黑纱飞舞黑色珠宝 

The fluttering black dress and the black jewels  

衬托斜斜黑帽

Setoff the oblique black hat

披起午夜孤身上路 

On the road alone at midnight  

穿梭夜店探讨

Shuttling among nightclubs to explore

激光飞舞鼓声滔滔 

Dancing Lasers and affluent drums 

节拍狂摇花都

The colourful city swings frenzied in beats

今宵这夜心中叫号 

Tonight, my heart calls out 

不想一再独舞

Don't want to dance solo again

但你为何未敢邀请我 

But why didn't you dare to invite me 

双起舞我姿色不错 

To dance together? I'm pretty good looking

冰冷外表心似火

I look cold, but my heart is aflame with passion

似火探戈

Like the afire Tango

但我为何密封起真我 

But why did I seal up the real me? 

只因我某天烧伤过 

Just because I got burned someday

不再玩火收歛起

Stopped playing with fire and restrained

似火眼波

The afire glance

黑衣黑如黑寡妇 

Dressed as black as a black widow 

孤单也像黑寡妇 

Also lonely like a black widow 

偏继续流露 

Yet still continue to show  

人造冷傲冷傲

The artificial cold and arrogant

黑衣黑如黑寡妇 

Dressed as black as a black widow 

孤单美丽黑寡妇 

A lonely beautiful black widow 

高贵地提步

Stepping elegantly

独跳 Tango

Dancing a solo Tango
