在杨德昌大导演逝世时，介绍过此歌。那时由Carreras演唱。最近找到帕瓦罗蒂的演唱，他的演唱具有非常刺透力。
动人的歌词：
Lovely moon, you who shed silver light
On these shores and on these flowers
And breathe the language
Of love to the elements,
You are now the sole witness
Of my ardent longing,
And can recount my throbs and sighs
To her who fills me with love.
Tell her too that distance
Cannot assuage my grief,
That if I cherish a hope,
It is only for the future.
Tell her that, day and night,
I count the hours of sorrow,
That a flattering hope
Comforts me in my love
