Lyrics
Peach and plum fangfei, pear blossom smile.
How can I compare to the springtime on my branch.
The peony is beautiful, the plum blossom is pretty.
How can I compare with the rainy red color?
It is a good idea to have a good time, but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do it.
A cup of fragrant tea to welcome you.
The stars are swaying, the clouds are floating,
Why should the western sky be ten thousand miles away,
Why should the western sky be ten thousand miles away?
Joy is in this day,
Joy is in this night,
Joy is in this day,
Joy is in this night.
