"Bell and Drum Tower"

Original singer: He Yong

Lyrics: He Yong

Music composed by: He Yong

My home is just inside the Second Ring Road? People here have so much time

Whose home are they talking about? They are watching what brand of cigarettes you are taking out

The people working hard in the small restaurant are fellow villagers from other places? Their faces look like mine

Cycling on the fallen leaves and watching the sunset disappear? The Yinding Bridge can no longer be seen clearly and the Xishan Mountain< /p>

The lotus in the water has lost its leaves? The moon in the reflection is negotiating with the street lamp

Who will light the fire to cook tomorrow morning? Who will eat fried dough sticks and biscuits tomorrow morning?

The Bell and Drum Tower sucks the dust and smoke and lets you paint his face? I can’t hear your voice now. It’s too noisy and chaotic

How can you still look at it after such a long time? Don't speak

Who asked the question that was so difficult? There are correct answers everywhere

Who asked the question that was so difficult? There are correct answers everywhere

My home is inside the Second Ring Road? My home is right here on the Bell and Drum Towers

My home is inside this compound? My home

My home, my home is on this earth
