Lion dance (simplified Chinese: 舞狮; traditional Chinese: 舞獅; pinyin: wǔshī) is a form of traditional dance in Chinese culture and other Asian countries in which performers mimic a lion's movements in a lion costume. The lion dance is usually performed during the Chinese New Year and other Chinese traditional, cultural and religious festivals. It may also be performed at important occasions such as business opening events, special celebrations or wedding ceremonies, or may be used to honour special guests by the Chinese communities.
The Chinese lion dance is often mistakenly referred to as dragon dance. An easy way to tell the difference is that a lion is normally operated by two dancers, while a dragon needs many people. Also, in a lion dance, the performers' faces are only seen occasionally, since they are inside the lion. In a dragon dance, the performers' faces can be easily seen since the dragon is held on poles. Chinese lion dance fundamental movements can be found in most Chinese martial arts.

(S. Cossette / S. Cossette)
Au fond d'un puits elle a jete ses promesses
Un jour de pluie, dans un geste de detresse
Mais tous les mots du monde se perdent dans un puits
En remontant la corde saans effort
J'ai su qu'il etait vide... le seau etait vide
Elle a pris la sortie de secours
Le chemin plus court
Elle a bati une forteresse
Loin de nous
Derriere un mur elle s'est cachee... peu sereine
A la pleine lune, j'ai meme chante a sa fenetre
Mais tous les airs du monde ne peuvent percer un mur
Elle a tire les rideaux
Et sa lampe s'est essoufflee depuis, son ombre aussi
Refrain:
Elle a pris la sortie de secours
Le chemin le plus court
Elle a bati une forteresse
Et ferme a double tour
Elle a quitte sans regarder autour
Pour un aller sans retour
Elle a bati une forteresse
Loin de nous
Tous les voeux du monde ne peuvent prendre vie
Mes prieres, mes offrandes et mes gestes
Ont tous atterri... au fond de son puits
