"A Diao" Lyrics
A Diao lives somewhere in Tibet
Perching like a vulture on the top of a mountain
A Diao The front door of the Jokhang Temple is filled with sunshine
Have a pot of sweet tea and we chat about the past
A Diao, you always dress yourself up like a boy
As good as a boy Sang is still tenacious
A cunning person has thousands of smiles
Whenever you go down the mountain, remember to bring the Dolma knife with you
The sunken cheeks under the gray brim of the hat
You rarely speak and give simple answers
Who will care about you where you are tomorrow
Even if you die on the road
(Child’s voice) Ge Sannice Aqi Pomegranate Dongshuo Dabing Anzi Floating
(Child’s Voice) Zhao Lei Salmon Fatty Xiaoliu
(Child’s Voice) Zhuoma Ada Yingzi Twice-cooked Pork
A Diao Will you be able to have a full meal tomorrow
You have become accustomed to hunger as a belief
A Diao will not be smoothed by reality
You are not from this world There is no need for people to care about the truth
Ill-fated and obsessed with indifference
Farewell to countless stations of youth
Be willing to be ordinary but unwilling to be ordinary and rotten
You are Atiao, you are a free bird
The sunken cheeks under the gray hat brim
You rarely speak and give simple answers
Where will you be tomorrow? Who cares about you
Even if you die on the road
Ill-fated and obsessed with indifference
Farewell to countless stations of youth
Willing to be ordinary but unwilling to be ordinary and rotten
You are A Diao
A Diao's love is a seed of sadness
You are a tree and you will never dry
