Lyrics:
There are eighteen bends in the mountain road here
There are nine consecutive rings in the waterway here
There are rows and rows of songs here
There are strings of songs here
There are eighteen bends in the mountain road
Bending out of the Tujia's gold and silver fortresses
Nine consecutive rings in the mountain road
Connecting the jeweled shoals of Tujia
There are eighteen bends in the mountain road
Without these eighteen bends there would be no more jewels.
Yeah......
Without these eighteen bends
there would be no mountain girls as beautiful as water
Without these nine consecutive rings
there would be no strong mountain men
Eighteen bends, nine consecutive rings
Eighteen bends, nine consecutive rings
Bending rings, rings
The water and mountains of the Tujia people are surrounded by these curves
Eighteen curves of the mountain paths here
Nine rings of the water paths here
The mountain songs here are sung in rows
Songs here are strung together in strings
Row after row
The bitterness and sweetness of the Tujia people are sung here
Songs strung together
The bitter and sweetness of the Tujia people are strung together here
The bitter and sweetness of the Tujia people are sung here
The bitter and sweetness of the Tujia people are strung together here
Yeah......
Without these rows
Without these strings
Without these strings
Without these strings
Without these strings
Row by row, string by string
Row by row, string by string
Row by row, string by string
Row by row, string by string
Row by string
Row by string
Row by row, string by string, string by string
The dreams and hopes of the Tujia people are all connected
The Tujia people are all connected to the dreams and hopes of the Tujia people.
