What can somersault in water / What is the tall structure on water / What can hold high an umbrella in water / What loves for ever on water / A duck can somersault in water / A ship is the tall structure on water / A lotus leaf can hold high an umbrella in water / Mandarin ducks love each other for ever on water/ What plant bears fruit like children hugging their mother’s neck / What plant bears fruit with a single heart / What plant bears fruit resembling a comb / What plant bears fruit covered with scales / Papaya bears fruit like children hugging their mother’s neck / Banana bears fruit with a single heart / Pomelo bears fruit resembling a comb / Pineapple bears fruit covered with scales/ What plant bears fruit at the top / What plant bears fruit in the middle / What plant bears fruit in pairs / What plant bears fruit that need threshing / Chinese sorghum bears fruit at the top / Corn bears fruit in the middle / Kidney beans bear fruit in pairs / The fruit of the sesame needs threshing /

You Send Me a Rose
Sung by Ke Limu  Chen Sisi

I send you a rose / I want to thank you honestly / A lark as lovely as a flower / I love you with all my heart / A lark as lovely as a flower / I love you with all my heart / The lark flies from my hand / And lands in the beautiful garden / Even if you think yourself foolish / I would still love you / We are like an oriole and lark / We are like two mandarin ducks / Our love is like a burning flame / Not even a gale could blow it out

The beautiful grassland is my home / A breeze blows across the green grassland / Butterflies dance, birds sing / Sunset glow is mirrored in the blue water / Galloping horses like drifting clouds / Cows and sheep scattered like pearls / Shepherd girls sing out loud / Their songs spread far and wide / Shepherd girls sing out loud / Their songs spread far and wide

Sung by   Cai Dan Zhuoma   Cai Guoqing

Red sun rises over the snow-capped mountain / Shining on the city of Lhasa / The serfs are liberated / Let’s roam the new city / The children run ahead / I hurry after them bathed in sweat / Eager to see the new Lhasa / Hurrying after / So many trees standing by the roadside / Covered in spiders’ webs / The lines of pylons / Najin hydropower station is generating electricity / The machines at work are bringing light to everyone / Bringing light to Lhasa day and night / Hurry, let’s see the new Lhasa / Waiting for me, let’s see the new Lhasa / Hurry / Golden flowers bloom in Lhasa / Thanks to the Chinese Communist Party

Sunshine on the Frontier
Words by Han Yun

The sun shines on the frontier/ Shining on green mountains and blue waters / Fruit trees in rows at the foot of the Changbai Mountains / Fragrant rice on the banks of the Hailan River / Leveling the mountain and finding buried treasure / Building dams to divert water up the hill / The people of Yanbian are excited / Army and people together strengthen the frontier / Led by the government we march to victory
