拷紅 - 周璇 (Traditional Chinese)
夜深深　停了針繡 和小姐閒談心
聽說哥哥病久 我倆背了夫人 到西廂　問候
他說夫人恩作仇　教我喜變憂
他把門兒關了　我只好走
他們心意兩相投　夫人你能罷休 便罷休　又何必苦追究

一不該 言而無信把婚姻賴
再不該 女大不嫁留在深閨
三不該呀 不曾發落這張秀才
如今是米已成飯　難更改
不如成其好事　一切都遮蓋

拷红 - 周璇 (Simplified Chinese)
夜深深 停了针绣 和小姐闲谈心
听说哥哥病久 我俩背了夫人 到西厢 问候
他说夫人恩作仇 教我喜变忧
他把门儿关了 我只好走
他们心意两相投 夫人你能罢休 便罢休 又何必苦追究

一不该 言而无信把婚姻赖
再不该 女大不嫁留在深闺
三不该呀 不曾发落这张秀才
如今是米已成饭 难更改
不如成其好事 一切都遮盖

Interrogating Red Maid - (Kao Hong) - Zhou Xuan
A late late night
Stop that needlepoint
The young lady chatted about her affairs of the heart
I heard about my older brother's long suffering marriage
Both of us go back to his wife
From the west chamber
Greeting from him
He said his wife caused hatred
My happiness turned to worry
He shut the little door
I want to go now
They are both cordial
The wife, you can give up on her
They already gave up
And why should his suffering be investigated?
One should not
rely on an untrustworthy marriage
Again should not
Women in general should not marry for support to stay in their homes
Three should not be the case yeah!
Doesn't satisfy this street scholar
Today we have an answer, raw rice grains become cooked rice
It is difficult to change
Not as good as the real thing
Everything falls into place
