LYRICS (please credit if using!)
Lonely the flute does sing
Long are the nights it brings
Paths made from right and wrong
When I wake, our dreams are all but gone
To the world, you wear your sins upon your sleeve
Bloodied blades grant your reprieve
Mountains and seas
Can you hear me?
The echoes of our song will never leave
And as we pass through life in joy and in pain
Watch the same moon wax and wane
Though the wind carries your wings far and wide
We sing under the same sky
Travel a thousand roads
End with the lives you’ve owed
Paths walked in right and wrong
In my dreams, where memories belong
To the world, you wear your sins upon your sleeve
Bloodied blades grant your reprieve
Mountains and seas
Do you hear me?
The echoes of your smile will never leave
So raise a glass to life and its joy and pain
Watch the moonlight wax and wane
Let us brave the storm with hope by our side
Singing our song to the sky
So raise a glass to life and its joy and pain
Let the moonlight pave the way
Won’t you walk the storm with your hand in mine?
Singing our song to the sky
Singing our song to the sky
Singing our song to the sky
♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫
Soooo I just finished watching The Untamed and BOI LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THIS SHOW. First of all, the music has no right to slap this hard. After hearing this song for 50 episodes (and losing a piece of my soul every time) I KNEW I had to give writing an English version a shot. I focused more on evoking the emotions and imagery of the original Chinese versus providing a literal translation. I hope you like what I've done! - Hudba

Wu Ji (English Version)
Lonely the flute does sing

Mountains and seas, can you hear me?
The echoes of our song will never leave
As we pass through life in joy and in pain

Singing our song to the sky
Singing our song to the sky
Singing our song to the... sky
Thank you !!
Thank you very much
Thanksssss
Thankyou ❤️
Thank uh so much ❤
this songs basically tells how much lwj wanted wwx to share his burdens with him and figure things out together. i cried literally. no lie
this is horribly sad
Ouch my heart is aching
It’s like 1 AM and I’m about to break.
❤ I also ❤
As a fellow Chinese, I can say that these lyrics are so provokingly beautiful, providing the same (if not better) emotion and imagery. Honestly, so pretty. Each line was so delicately written! Such an awesome English cover! 谢谢你！
Oh gosh thank you for your lovely comment! I’m so glad you enjoyed! It means a lot 😭
As another Chinese I agree (I’m mostly Filipino tho)
I'm an indonesian but i loved your cover ... superb👍
As a chinese speaker I agree too!
Where can if find version of this song with no vocals (no offence the singing and wording of this translation were beautiful)
Honestly , you sound like a Disney Princess. This version has such a new take on the song. Loved it!!!
I was going to say.. her voice gives me a Disney vibe.. 😍
@@rashmisiribaddana3298 yes!! And it's so soulful. I love it
Yess so disney vibe , give me so much pocahontas vibe
It gives me Rapunzel vibes. ❤
HAHAHAHA yes she sounds like a disney princess omg
"To the world you wear your sins upon your sleeves" omg. OMG!
When I tell you I walked away, I really did.
I love everything about this version. You rock! Amazing!
What is the meaning of it. i really can't understand
@@lilyofthevalleyandtheriver they have a term "cut sleeve" that comes from the story that one emperor was gay and his boyfriend fell asleep on his sleeve and in order to not wake him up he cut his sleeve. Since in the novel it's not censored that Wuxian and Wangji are a romantic couple it's clear. The sleeve was in the style that Wangji wears and we know his sin is being in love with Wei. Also "bloodied blades are your reprieve" means that they tolerate them being together and say nothing to Wangji because he is an outstanding cultivator.
@@mastertoot9011 thank you very much
@kpop thirst @@lilyofthevalleyandtheriver I... kinda disagree? or that this particular line likely has a dual meaning, because that line "you wear your {} on your sleeves" much more resembles the English idiom, "wearing your heart on your sleeves" which basically refers to someone who shows their feelings openly/or as the dictionary states "make one's feelings apparent." Basically I took this line to mean that in the worlds point of view wwx's sin are obvious and it is apparent that his sins have "exposed his true self" but by saying "to the world" the lyrics are implying that the world is wrong or misjudged. also the "reprieve" that the "bloody blades grant" in the next line specifically means to essentially delay or suspend punishment for a time so it likely alludes to the wwx's first but temporary death and the first siege.
also, not that I'm a position of authority on Chinese (so take this with a grain of salt of I'm wrong) but in a quick search on some of the more literal translations of wuji by other artists, the lines these two seem to coincide with do seem to generally refer to the question of "good and evil" and "wwx's death"
I honestly underestimated you when I clicked this. But then... huh. The lyrics ain't bad. Hmph, beautiful, actua- 3:23 *looks at background* nO WAIT STOP SHUT UP *search for tissues*

UNTAMED IS A LEGEND ❤️
I can't agree more
@@thanmayegoli why the f..k
I agree 💙
To be honest this is a wonderful translation. I can feel the meaning of the song, that how it brings the story in my mind. The sound and your voice can make me feel that i remember all of the good and bad moments in the Untamed. Thank You This is so good translation good job.
I couldn't have said it better. 💖💖💖
Does anyone else feel like listening to this song in the middle of the forest, waiting for their soul mate to find them? no? just me?... okay ✨
And me 😭
count me in😭😭
My new hc for the untamed😙
Samee literally I started crying
😂 well I want yizhan to come pic me up in their flying dragon
I ain't setting for a soulmate😌
Just finished my fourth run through the animation. I’ve read the novel and seen the live drama countless times. This song still makes me tear up. How I wish the author would come back to these characters and write some extra content from where the novel ends.
Wait I guess u hv not seen Audio drama yet?..
Don't miss it.. it's one of the most beautiful adaptation of MDZS ..!!!
😭❤️
Where can I find The Audio Drama please?
How does the novel finishh??
‘The echoes of your smile will never leave’ WOW!!
Awesome ❤❤❤❤
The beauty of this can never be described. I never understood the Chinese version but I loved and felt it all the same. Discovering this, and the blessed context...I have no words. I honestly sobbed my heart out. Thank you so much for this.
I’m honored you were so touched.Thank you so much for your kind words! 🥰
This is so well translated and sung I’m crying. Also I love “Walk the storm with your hand in mine” it reminds me a lot of when lwj told wwx that “walking the single log bridge is not so bad” 😭😭😭
I accidentally clicked this video but this must be the best accident that ever happened to me, lol. I'm crying fr
That’s hella good translation! Are you Chinese?
Thank you so much! And yes I am! :)
Oh wow, very precise both in lyric & rhythm. Thanks for your good work. The song always arouses my endless love to AXian & Lan Zhan, as well as Xiao Zhan & Wang Yi Bo. They are always the most perfect & adorable creatures in the world
@@Ivy_lky Reeeeee I know both languages hehe
I love china.love from Pakistan...we need season 2 the untamed 💖💖💖💖😢😢😢😢
@@Selina95 I think your English is so good
!!!! Seeing untamed content on my CZcams page is a freaking blessing. This is gorgeous! 😭💞💖
I agree with you the untamed is by far the best series ever
Go watch Under The Power, the main actor and actress are absolutely AWESOME! I died crying.
This is like the official song for me!!! Since I can't sing in mandarin, I learned this version and I sing it watching the series. And everytime I hear wuji starting, I think of this!!!
Selina, you made this song accessible for me! I wish the entire fandom knows you and appreciates you! Thank you so so so much!!!!!!!
thank you so much for listening 🥺

“To the world you wear your sins upon your sleeves” i'm tearing up...
The nostalgia is no joke. This is amazingly beautiful.
Idky but this cover hit me in the heart so hard that I feel like crying but I'm holding my tears back I mean wtf this is so beautiful? Please my ears feel so blessed rn😭

I am so whipped for these two that your lyrics straight up made me bawl 😭 This was SO good!
haha SAME 😭 thank you I’m glad you enjoyed!!
I'm from India. Thanks for English version, Untamed is my fav drama and Wuji is my fav song ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh man, this just brought back all my memories from when I watched the show. This show was such an emotional journey for me 🥺😭
So true this song truly never leave I still even watch untamed in 2023❤
I usually watch Hollywood movies and dramas but this drama The Untamed was the one and only drama which made me cry. I can’t recall how many times I cried but almost every moment when Wuxian and Lan Zhan share together with. I wouldn’t give a name their relationship but it’s a deep bond they are sharing souls each other even without words, their expressions do communicate. This is my most favorite drama ❤️ everytime when I hear this song and it’s flute version, it pierces my heart 💘
Why the hell are you not famous yet?! WHY?! I love it!
No words to say .... I'm just feeling this song and thinking of the legends of "the untamed" drama
IVE BEEN WAITING A HALF YEAR FOR ANOTHER ENGLISH COVER, THIS IS SO GOOD THANK YOU SM IMA GO CRY NOW 😔😔😔😢✨💘
Really really well done! At first I though it was unfortunate that it wasn't in a male voice, but by the end I'm completely in love with the way it sounded with this female (I assume your) voice!
Thank you for this great experience.
The feeling, the lyrics, the voice.......in one word amazing
This English cover is very nice ! 这个英语覆盖唱歌很好
我很喜欢
Chills, literal chills (maybe also because it's a bit cold)
Gosh I loved the way you've adapted the feeling and meaning of the chinese original to the melody and lines in english....
That's a genius work here!
Your voice is wonderful also!
Thank you for the content.
Not enough words to describe the beauty and richness of this song. Even in a different language. Thank you
This masterpiece is not known to the world yet...
It’s such a blessing that I found this, for I could find myself in their shoes for once because of it, and listening to this erupted shudders through my fingertips channelling upto the toes....
I’m so grateful. Thank you so much!!
The two most wanted man sing this.....And I love this song
Nakaka iyak ang hestory nila. Sana mai season 2 n cla.
God this is so heartbreaking... I'm so grateful for this cover I can't even put it into words...
Oh my gosh! I did not expect this! This is the best English version ever!
You legit sound like a Disney princess
This is the smoothest translation of wuji I've ever heard
Just so freaking beautiful, keep up the good work💙
Brings back the memories when I was watching the untamed 💖 I miss those days
GOD PLEASE PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Legally I don't think I can, but it is on Soundcloud! Check the link in the description
I played it over and over again. This is just so beautiful. Everything is beautiful. Thank you for this masterpiece!
Yeah, I'm here again. Listening to this.
omg i might be late but
this...this is just so beautiful!
The instrumental before it starts gave me goosebumps and once the singing starts, the volcano of emotions hidden in the depths of my brain just exploded and flood through me like a tsunami. Now I'm crying whilst I'm doing my homework because this song just came out of nowhere and I am not prepared for the overwhelming emotions 😭😭
0:49 BRUH I GOT FREAKING CHILLS AND GOOSEBUMPS HOLY SHITTAKE YOUR VOICE IS SO ANGELIC 😭 💞
gorgeous! i love how you’ve kept the same vibe of the chinese lyrics while still keeping them...singable, if that makes sense?? amazing job!! 🥺
Thank you so much for this 😭 I can not help stoping replaying
ok it hits differently when you understand the lyrics...ohhh the feelings🥺🥲❤️❤️❤️ wonderful version! can't someone make a nice fmv with this version?😭😍
1. I usually get goosebumps to songs but rarely tears, I literally CRIED this was so beautiful I felt it in every corner of my body, really I LOVE THIS
2. I already read the translation somewhere but this is the first time listening to it actually made into the instrumemtal... this is, again, amazing I have no words
It may be because after seeing and reading the series, I can give these words a scene and a picture, and it means a lot more, thank you 🧡✨🐇
I am lost for words, I feel as if no matter how many words I could use to describe my love for this cover they would not be enough. But I'll still try, because you deserve to know how amazing I think your song is. The lyrics are beautiful, I love how you've managed to include phrases from the original lyrics and then woven them together with your version - if I didn't know any better, I'd never think it was not a word for word translation. The mood is spot on, perfect. You've managed to convey the same feelings of sadness, tragedy, bitterness, remembrance, treasured times of joy and a longing for life as it once was - happy, carefree, simple - and the hope that even if those times are forever gone, perhaps it's possible to find a new happiness.
I can see scenes from the show before my eyes as I listen to this beautiful song and am already singing along to it. I'm going to be singing your song for weeks to come. Thank you so, so much for creating this. I am beyond happy that I stumbled upon it. Thank you.
Thank you for leaving such a thoughtful comment, I’m so glad you love it ❤️ I’m so happy to write and sing for viewers like you! :)
This was truly so beautiful! Great job!
This deserves more attention! This is absolutely a real masterpiece!
That was an amazing translation, I'm totally in love
So, so, so beautiful. The poetic lyrics, meaning behind the song, and your gorgeous voice makes this a phenomenal masterpiece.
Thank you so much 🥺❤️

This was so amazing😭😭❤️. I have watched the show and i got literal goosebumps listening to this. Great job!
CHILLS!!!!! thank you so much for sharing this, it's perfect!!!
Love your voice so soothing Masha Allah
You sing so beautifully. And the lyrics omg. Finally I get what this Song really means. As a german speaker I watched the show with german subtitles and the translation for the song never really made sense there to me...sometimes the sentences felt so strange that I couldn't believe that this was what was really sung, or just sentences that didn't really made sense in themselves.... I just finished the show and searched for better translations to really get it, so thank you :)
It must be difficult to really translate every meaning of the original lyrics because of differences in expression and metaphors and meaning in the different languages and cultures. Thank you for your work (and sorry for the long comment).
I’m so glad you were able to understand the song better through this cover! ❤️ Thank you for your comment and thank you for listening :)
Beautiful! Well done! I was so moved I'm in tears. Bravo!!!! ❤ it.
Omg I didn't know what to expect but the lyrics and your singing are both BEAUTIFUL!! thank you!! :') ♥️
I had goosebumps throughout the entire cover that's just so beautiful..
Also I loved how much emotion you managed to convey through your voice
That's a masterpiece!! 💕
i just watched the series and this popped up in my recommended and i'm glad it did!! your voice is beautiful and the lyrics are spot on, so i decided to check out your channel, and i immediately realize you're the same Selina as the, Blixemi Selina,, haha! awesome! but it definitely surprised me lmao
I’m addicting to this oh my goodness your voice and the wholesome lyric is just so match!
Wow. Just wow. I had chills run down my spine while listening to this. The lyrics are beautiful and your voice fits so well with the soft piano/string version of the song. I love it!
Lovely💖
UNTAMED the English version is sad, compared to the Chinese version !
UNEXPECTEDLY this was unique with unforgettable words and voice !
UNLIKE you, I had to Google translate each Chinese word to understand !
ULTIMATELY for me, its about “letting go” of negativity like resentment, revenge, ....
UNABLE to let go of the past, the other 2 men ended their lives unpleasantly,
UNLESS able to, Life giving you chances , can't be seen as “you yang”/melodious.
I am crying. This is beautiful. Thank you
Yay, this is absolutely beautiful!😍♥️ Love it♥️.
I am indian but love this drama Omo I though it is kdrama after seeing it becomes my favourite and then I seen this is cdrama but it's my favorite
This is so gorgeous!!! I love the translation, it's so evocative and emotional and you sing so beautifully TT^TT I was wondering if you wouldn't mind telling me how you did the music arrangement? I'd love an instrumental version if you have it as well, I've never heard one done like this before and I'd love it for a skate program :D
Thank you so much! This version of Wuji is the Bibi Zhou version and you can find the instrumental on Smule 🥰
I definitely appreciate the song even better now after hearing your version. It’s absolutely beautiful and the translation too! The words really hit deep.
Beautiful! 💖 Such amazing talent 👏 Thank you for this gift 🙏
MY EARS HAVE BEEN BLESSED
