恰近日
Just then, as it happened,
这神瑛侍者凡心偶炽，
Shen Ying was seized with a longing to assume human form and visit the world of men,
乘此昌明太平朝世，意欲下凡造历幻缘.
taking advantage of the present enlightened and peaceful reign.

已在警幻仙子案前挂了号．
He made his request to the Goddess of Disenchantment．

警幻亦曾问及，灌溉之情未偿，趁此倒可了结的．
who saw that this was a chance for Vermilion Pearl to repay her debt of gratitude.

那绛珠仙子道：
said Vermilion Pearl
`他是甘露之惠，
He gave me sweet dew
我并无此水可还．
But I've no water to repay his kindness
他既下世为人，
If he's going down to the world of men
我也去下世为人，
I would like to go too
但把我一生所有的眼泪还他，
so that if I repay him with as many tears as I can shed in a lifetime
也偿还得过他了．
I may be able to clear this debt.

因此一事，就勾出多少风流冤家来，
This induced many other amorous spirits who had not atoned for their sins
陪他们去了结此案。
to accompany them and take part in this drama
