Lyrics
The water of Honghu Lake is a wave
The shore of Honghu Lake is the hometown of Honghu Lake
The boat goes out in the morning and casts its nets
In the evening it returns to the cabin full of fish
There are wild ducks and lotus roots everywhere
The autumn harvest is full of fragrant rice
Everyone says that the paradise is beautiful
How can it be better than the fish and rice towns of Honghu Lake?
Honghu Lake water ah long ah well long and long ah
Sun out flash ah ah flash gold light ah
**** the favor of the Communist Party than the East China Sea deep
fishermen's prosperity year by year stronger
