Pan Changjiang Square Dance Crossing the River

"Crossing the River" Pan Liuchang Jiang Chun Mei

There is a winding river in front of my brother.

My sister is singing a sweet song across the street.

There are layers of waves in my brother's heart

When will Sister let me cross your river?

When will my sister accept my heart?

My brother's heart is burning with a red flame.

Sister, let me cross your river quickly.

Brother, if you want to cross the river, you must first match your sister's song.

Ask not for whom the flowers bloom, nor for whom the bees fall.

Ask if you know my heart, why do you want to cross my river?

Brother, you have to cross the river until the sun sets in the west.

The spring breeze is blowing, the ship is shaking, and the heart has been opened.

Sister is willing to make a rowing boat and let you jump over my river.

The boat swam in the water for a long time, rowing waves on the river.

Pick a water hibiscus and give it to my brother.

Whispering, whispering, the river is full of sweetness.
