Song glorifies the Eighth Route Army soldiers who have built up merit in opening up the land for production, reflecting the Yan'an spirit of self-reliance and vigor among the military and civilians in the rear during the war of resistance.
The lyrics of "Nanniwan" are simple and plain, full of cheerful atmosphere and positive emotions. The song has a beautiful melody and sings of the transformation of Nanniwan from desolate to "Jiangnan". The whole song can be divided into two contrasting parts.
The first half of the song is soft and gentle, the second half is cheerful and jumpy, and the last part of the song ends with a five-degree upward flutter. The song absorbs the tones and rhythms of folk songs and dances, and with the performance form of singing and dancing, it integrates lyricism and dance, making it more vivid and touching.
The lyrics of the song are as follows:
The flowers of the flower basket are fragrant, listen to me sing, sing, sing, sing, sing.
Coming to Nanniwan, Nanniwan is a good place, good place, good place, good place, good place, good place.
The good place to come to the good scenery, good place to come to the good scenery, everywhere is the crops, everywhere is the cattle and sheep.
The Nanniwan of the past years, everywhere is a barren mountain, no ah people.
Today's Nanniwan is not the same as it was in previous years, not the same.
The Nanniwan of today is not the same as it was in the past, it is not the same as it was in the old days, it is the good south of Shaanxi province.
The good south of Shaanxi, flowers bloom all over the mountain, bloom all over the mountain.
Learning that Nanniwan, everywhere is the Jiangnan, is the Jiangya South.
The 359th Brigade is a model of learning and production, and we are going forward to send flowers to the model.
We are going to go ahead and send flowers to the model.
