Lyrics of "Children of the Prairie"

The sunshine is so bright,

Spring comes to the grassland,

The white clouds are in my Floating above my head,

the sheep were having fun beside me.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

White clouds, white clouds, walk slowly,

I sing pastoral songs Please pass on,

Children of the grasslands love the commune,

Chairman Mao’s teachings will always be in your heart.

Our hometown is so rich,

The vast grassland is boundless with green waves,

The sheep whip and shovel are in hand,

The revolution The burden is on your shoulders.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Little sheep, little sheep, come back to the team quickly,

Listen to my command Ah, moving forward,

the children of the grassland learn from Lei Feng,

determined to succeed the revolutionary class.

"Children of the Prairie" is a ballet created by China National Ballet of Music in the 1970s. The background is the story of Long Mei and Yu Rong, the little sisters who were famous prairie heroes at that time. The ballet "Children of the Prairie" was made into a stage art film, in which the daughter's dance of milking the cow under the guidance of her mother is a classic. An admirable netizen has paired the original dance with a concert performance suite adapted from the original ballet music in recent years. The tonality is different from the original version.
