A performance of 枉凝眉 (Vain Longing) from 红楼梦 ("A Dream of Red Mansions"/"Dream of the Red Chamber"/"Red Chamber Dream" by Cao Xueqin). This is a poem that appeared in the book and was adapted into a song in 1987, performed by 陈力 (Chen Li). She is the first performer in this video, while the second singer is 余少群 (Yu Shaoqun), who i primarily known as an actor.
The English lyrics that I have added to this video are from the Yang & Yang English translation of 红楼梦.
