The lyrics are as follows:
It's too late to wait, too late to get drunk
Oh, it's too late to get drunk
Young heart meets the sun
Together, we'll chase that hope
We'll go out with our hearts and wishes
Let the time be witness to the time and let the years be experienced
We'll have no complaints
Twenty years later, we'll be back
The mountains, the water, the scenery will be beautiful then
We'll be back in twenty years. We'll meet again in twenty years
The mountains and the waters of that time
The scenery must have been beautiful then
I hope we'll meet again then
The spring and the autumn of that time
The fruits of that time were intoxicating
Too late to feel and too late to reminisce
Oh, too late to reminisce
Colorful dream Full of ideals
Together we will fly towards the future
We will paint the blueprints once again
Let the times review and let the time tell
Do we have a clear conscience
We will meet again in twenty years
The sky will be the same as the land
The motherland will be even more beautiful then
I hope that we will be together again by then. We'll meet again
You then, oh me then
The achievements of that time are gratifying
You then, oh me then
We'll meet again then
The new generation across the century
We'll meet again then
Extended information:
"Meeting Again After Twenty Years" is a song sung by Tong Tiexin and Zhang Mai, composed by Gu Jianfen, with lyrics by A Ding and Zhang Mai, and included in the album "Selected Works of Gu Jianfen", which was released in 2000.
"Young Friends Come Together" is a masterpiece of Gu Jianfen, and is also the song of the era that young people often hummed in the early eighties. The melody of this song is light, beautiful, vivid, novel, full of youthful flavor and sense of the times, accurately reflecting the life, pursuit, ideals, and unlimited longing for a better future of the young people in that prosperous era.
Since the song contains one or two paragraphs describing the situation of meeting again after twenty years, Gu Jianfen and the song's lyricist Zhang Meitong worked together again to create a song called "Meeting Again After Twenty Years," which was unveiled at the CCTV Young Singers Grand Prix that year, on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the song's birth.
