Lyrics: He Jingzhi

Composition: Marco

The flowers of the flower basket are fragrant, listen to me sing

Sing a song

Singing a song

Come to Nanniwan, Nanniwan is a good place

Good place, good place

Good place to come to a good scenery, good place to come to

Crops everywhere, cattle and sheep everywhere

The Nanniwan of that year, everywhere, is a barren mountain with no people

The Nanniwan of today is not the same as in previous years

Not the same

The Nanniwan of today is not the same as in previous years

Not the same as in previous years

Not the old model anymore, it is a good river in the northern part of the Shaanxi province

A good river in the northern part of the Shaanxi province

A good river in the northern part of the Shaanxi province

A good river in the northern part of the Shaanxi province

This is the best place to be.

Flowers are blooming all over the mountains

Learning from Nanniwan, it is Jiangnan everywhere

It is the south of the Yangtze River

Both fighting and producing, the 359th Brigade is a model

We are going to go forward and send flowers to the model

We are going to go forward and send flowers to the model
