Original text | |
刘三姐： 多谢了，多谢四方众乡亲， 我今没有好茶饭，只有山歌敬亲人。 世上千般咱无份，只有山歌属穷人。 刘三姐：莫讲穷，山歌能把海填平， 上天能赶乌云走，下地能催五谷生。 歌声还比钢刀利，难怪四方都闻名。 刘三姐： 取笑多，画眉取笑小阳雀， 我嫩鸟才学唱，绒毛鸭子初下河。 众男声： 好歌才， 只有三姐唱得来， 心想与姐唱几句，不知金口开不开。 刘三姐： 心想唱歌就唱歌，心想打鱼就下河， 你拿竹篙我拿网，随你撑到哪条河。 众男声： 什么水面打跟斗，什么水面起高楼， 什么水面撑阳伞，什么水面共白头。 刘三姐： 鸭子水面打跟斗，大船水面起高楼， 荷叶水面撑阳伞，鸳鸯水面共白头。 众男声： 什么结果抱娘颈，什么结果一条心， 什么结果抱梳子，什么结果披鱼鳞。 刘三姐： 木瓜结果抱娘颈，香蕉结果一条心， 柚子结果抱梳子，菠萝结果披鱼鳞。 众男声： 什么有咀不讲话，什么无嘴闹喳喳， 什么有脚不走路，什么无脚走千家。 刘三姐： 菩萨有咀不讲话，铜锣无嘴闹喳喳， | |

Third Sister Liu: Thank you very much, thank you to all the folks in the Quartet, I do not have good tea and rice today, only folk songs to respect my relatives. We have no share in the world, only folk songs belong to the poor. Third Sister Liu: Don't talk about poverty, folk songs can fill the sea, The sky can drive the dark clouds away, and the ground can urge the growth of grain. Singing is better than a steel knife, no wonder the Quartet is famous. Third Sister Liu: A lot of teasing, Thrush teasing the little sunbird, I only learned to sing when I was a tender bird, and the fluffy duck first came to the river. Male voices: Good songs, only the third sister can sing, I want to sing a few words with my sister, I don't know if Chrysostom can start it. Sister Liu: Sing if you want to sing, go down to the river if you want to fish, You take the penny and I will take the net, whichever river you hold. All male voices: What kind of water somersault, what kind of water raises tall buildings, What surface holds a parasol, and what surface has white heads. Sister Liu: Ducks fight on the water, and big boats rise from the water, The lotus leaves hold the parasol on the water surface, and the mandarin ducks have white heads on the water surface. Male voices: What is the result of holding the mother's neck, what is the result of being one heart, What is the result of holding a comb, what is the result of covering fish scales Sister Liu: The papaya turns to hold my neck, the banana turns to a heart The grapefruit holds a comb, and the pineapple has fish scales. Male voices: Why do you have mouths but do not speak, what do you chat without mouths, Anyone who has feet does not walk, and whoever has no feet walks thousands of miles. Sister Liu: The bodhisattva has a mouth but does not speak, and the gong has no mouth to chatter Credits Song: Zhuang folk song Artist: Chen Sisi Text & music video: Courtesy of tshav ntuj kaj nrig English translation: Ho Ye Wu | |
