"Sorrow"
Lyrics: Chi Zhiqiang
Songwriter: Chi Zhiqiang
Singer: Chi Zhiqiang
Lyrics:
Sorrow, sorrow, sorrow is white.
Since I parted from you ah, I lived in a prison building.
Tears ah can not stop flowing, can not stop flowing down.
The two-foot-eight sign hung around my neck, and the streets and alleys took me for a ride.
They are holding the food in their hands, and there is not a drop of oil in the food.
Life in prison is so painful, one step at a time.
The tears in my hands are flowing down my face.
What a shameful crime to commit, how can I hold my head up?
I have lost my freedom from my loved ones, and my tears have turned into bitter water.
From now on, I will not be able to see my loved ones again, and my heart will be filled with infinite sorrow.
They have been so worried that they have turned their heads white.
Since I was separated from you, I have been living in a prison building.
The tears can't stop flowing, they can't stop flowing down.
The two-foot-eight sign hung around my neck, and the streets and alleys took me for a ride.
They are holding the food in their hands, and there is not a drop of oil in the food.
Life in prison is so painful.
One step at a time, and in my hand I'm holding a nested head.
The tears can't stop flowing down, how shameful is the crime committed.
How can I hold my head up? I lost my freedom when I left my family.
The tears have turned into bitter water, from now on I will not be able to see my relatives again.
This is the first time I've ever seen a woman in the world who has been in the world for a long time, and I've never seen her again.
