0113NN馬蘭山歌 Ma Lan Shan Ge 歌詞 Lyrics
遼遠的青山無際，一重又一重，健美的馬蘭姑娘
連步輕如風，連步輕如風。
這一高岡，唱到那方的一個山峰，採得那花兒綠葉襯嫩紅
綠葉襯嫩紅，綠葉襯嫩紅。
清澈的溪流不停，日日又夜夜，健美的馬蘭姑娘
溪水凝脂潔，溪水凝脂潔。
溪底魚兒來回穿梭也一樣歡悅，拾得那小石，圓似一輪月。
馬蘭的景緻壯麗，好比一幅畫，健美的馬蘭姑娘，艷麗勝朵花
艷麗勝朵花
我高山男兒強壯多情，心想女嬌娃，取得那新娘，
快樂過生崖，快樂過生崖，快樂過生崖，
新娘艷如花。

Song Zhuang, the biggest artist enclave in China, and the world, is facing forced demolition by the Chinese government. Thousands of artists have settled in Song Zhuang in the past decade, turning this farming community into the vibrant artist haven we know today. Many artists have poured their lifetime's savings into building studios and living quarter complexes, working and living here all year round. Among them are the prominent artist Ai Wei Wei and renowned art critic Li Xianting, just to name a few.
With the future fate of Song Zhuang, which so many artists call home, totally unknown, one of them said:"All we can count on is the present and would value every minute of it. "

This song tells of Wang Zhaojun's feelings on leaving China, as a political bride, and moving to a new culture. She was one of the Four Beauties of ancient China. The others being Xi Shi, Diao Chan, and Yang Guifei. It is said: "Xi Shi sinks fish; Diao Chan eclipses the moon; Yang Guifei shames flowers, and Wang Zhaojun drops birds" Why is Zhaojun said to drop birds? Well ... On a bright autumn morning she left her hometown on horseback and began a journey northward. Along the way, the horse neighed, making Zhaojun extremely sad and unable to control her emotions. As she sat on the saddle, she began to play sorrowful melodies on a stringed instrument. A flock of geese flying southward heard the music, saw the beautiful young woman riding the horse, immediately forgot to flap their wings, and fell to the ground. From then on, she acquired the nickname "fells geese" or "drops birds."
Zhaojun was born to a prominent family in Baoping Village, Zigui County. In 36 BC, Emperor Yuan chose her as his concubine from Nan county. Zhaojun left her hometown and entered the harem of Emperor Yuan in early summer. When choosing a new wife, the Emperor was first presented with portraits of all the possible women. Because of Zhaojun's confidence of beauty and temperament, she refused to bribe the artist Mao Shouyan as other women did. So he painted a mole of widowed tears on Zhaojun's portrait. As a result, she was never visited by the emperor and overlooked, remaining a palace lady-in-waiting.
In 33 BC, Huhanye Chanyu visited Chang'an as part of the tributary system between the Han and Xiongnu governments. He requested to become an imperial son-in-law. Emperor Yuan ordered that the plainest girl in the harem be selected. He asked for volunteers and promised to present her as his own daughter. The idea of leaving their homeland and comfortable life at the court for the grasslands of the far and unknown north was abhorrent to most of the women, but Wang Zhaojun accepted. When she was summoned to court and her beauty revealed, the emperor wanted to keep her! However, it was too late, and, the emperor, sadly, presented Zhaojun to Huhanye, who was delighted. Relations with the Xiongnu improved and Mao Shouyan, was put to death for his actions.
Wang Zhaojun embarked on the long, hazardous journey to Xiong-Nu. Once there, she persuaded Huhanye to abandon violence. As a result, peace reigned on the border with China for over 60 years. She also introduced Chinese culture. When Huhanye died in 31 BC, Zhaojun asked to return to China. Emperor Cheng, however, ordered that she follow Xiongnu custom and become the wife of the next shanyu, which she did. Her life became a popular subject in Chinese poetry, drama and novels. As she was loved and respected by the Xiongnu, Huhanxie Chanyu conferred on her the title of the First Lady of Xiongnu Peace. The Communist government of the People's Republic of China made her as a symbol of the integration of Han Chinese and ethnic minorities of China. There is a Memorial to Zhaojun in Inner Mongolia. Today, her name not only symbolizes physical beauty, but also a spirit of goodwill to bridge different cultures, even at the expense of one's own interests.
Lyrics Translation:
Wang Zhaojun ... Menzuo carved saddle ... Remember Han Emporer ... Day and night ... Evening twilight Zhao Zhao ... Feel dejected
future prospects are vast and obscure... Seeing extreme emptiness ... See wild goose down ... cut off from the sound of Hengyang
Months dim ... Flashback wild geese ... Beyond the Great Wall wind and frost ... horses hooves pounding ... busy
All day thinking ... Night pondering ... Soul dreams and remembers the king
Yangguan beginning to chant unforgettable memories of the past pipa repeating itself ... Looking back at the homeland ... rivers and mountains - total heartbreak
Rememering my family circumstances ... missing Xuanen County... Attached to these feelings forever .. Far removed from my homeland
Old dreams of the past... Old dreams of the past ... Empty melancholy
Yangguan chanting again ... Filled with grief ... Pipa repeating itself ... Fixing my attention on weeds ... Wild flowers covering the roads ... The other end of the world, vast and unknown
Also see the wild geese falling ... Frosty roads ... Hu landscape Hills decayed by water destroying the hills ... Not in the mood to appreciate beauty
Yangguan final chant ... Future is desolate ... Three plays on the pipa
Looking towards one's future prospects ... Drifting and uncertain ... Gazing at my king expectingly
Gazing at my monarch expectingly ... Soul returning to Han territory ... Witness the morning sun After a long ponder Place of God forever
Forever thinking of and missing One pipa song just regret forever

Folk music
Folk music includes both traditional music and the genre that evolved from it during the 20th century folk revival. The term originated in the 19th century but is often applied to music that is older than that. Some types of folk music are also called world music.
Traditional folk music has been defined in several ways: as music transmitted orally, or as music with unknown composers. It has been contrasted with commercial and classical styles. One meaning often given is that of old songs, with no known composers; another is music that has been transmitted and evolved by a process of oral transmission or performed by custom over a long period of time.
Starting in the mid-20th century a new form of popular folk music evolved from traditional folk music. This process and period is called the (second) folk revival and reached a zenith in the 1960s. This form of music is sometimes called contemporary folk music or folk revival music to distinguish it from earlier folk forms. Smaller similar revivals have occurred elsewhere in the world at other times, but the term folk music has typically not been applied to the new music created during those revivals. This type of folk music also includes fusion genres such as folk rock, folk metal, electric folk, and others. While contemporary folk music is a genre generally distinct from traditional folk music, in English it shares the same name, and it often shares the same performers and venues as traditional folk music. Even individual songs may be a blend of the two.

Song
A song is a single (and often standalone) work of music intended to be sung by the human voice with distinct and fixed pitches and patterns using sound and silence and a variety of forms that often include the repetition of sections. Written words created specifically for music or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs in a simple style that are learned informally are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers for concert performances. Songs are performed live and recorded. Songs may also appear in plays, musical theatre, stage shows of any form, and within operas.

Wang Zhaojun
Wang Qiang (Wang Chiang; 王牆, also 王檣 and 王嬙), more commonly known by her stylistic name Wang Zhaojun (Wang Chao-chun; 王昭君) was known as one of the Four Beauties of ancient China. Born in Baoping Village, Zigui County (in current Hubei Province) in the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC–8 AD), she was sent by Emperor Yuan to marry the Xiongnu Chanyu Huhanye (呼韓邪) in order to establish friendly relations with the Han Dynasty through marriage.
In the most prevalent version of the "Four Beauties" legend, it is said that Wang Zhaojun left her hometown on horseback on a bright autumn morning and began a journey northward. Along the way, the horse neighed, making Zhaojun extremely sad and unable to control her emotions. As she sat on the saddle, she began to play sorrowful melodies on a stringed instrument. A flock of geese flying southward heard the music, saw the beautiful young woman riding the horse, immediately forgot to flap their wings, and fell to the ground. From then on, Zhaojun acquired the nickname "fells geese" or "drops birds."

Song Zhuang, the biggest artist enclave in China, and the world, is facing forced demolition by the Chinese government. Thousands of artists have settled in Song Zhuang in the past decade, turning this farming community into the vibrant artist haven we know today. Many artists have poured their lifetime's savings into building studios and living quarter complexes, working and living here all year round. Among them are the prominent artist Ai Wei Wei and renowned art critic Li Xianting, just to name a few. With the future fate of Song Zhuang, which so many artists call home, totally unknown, one of them said:"All we can count on is the present and would value every minute of it. "

遼遠的青山無際，一重又一重，健美的馬蘭姑娘
連步輕如風，連步輕如風。
這一高岡，唱到那方的一個山峰，採得那花兒綠葉襯嫩紅
綠葉襯嫩紅，綠葉襯嫩紅。
清澈的溪流不停，日日又夜夜，健美的馬蘭姑娘
溪水凝脂潔，溪水凝脂潔。
溪底魚兒來回穿梭也一樣歡悅，拾得那小石，圓似一輪月。
馬蘭的景緻壯麗，好比一幅畫，健美的馬蘭姑娘，艷麗勝朵花
艷麗勝朵花
我高山男兒強壯多情，心想女嬌娃，取得那新娘，
快樂過生崖，快樂過生崖，快樂過生崖，
新娘艷如花。

This song tells of Wang Zhaojun's feelings on leaving China, as a political bride, and moving to a new culture. She was one of the Four Beauties of ancient China. The others being Xi Shi, Diao Chan, and Yang Guifei. It is said: "Xi Shi sinks fish; Diao Chan eclipses the moon; Yang Guifei shames flowers, and Wang Zhaojun drops birds" Why is Zhaojun said to drop birds? Well ... On a bright autumn morning she left her hometown on horseback and began a journey northward. Along the way, the horse neighed, making Zhaojun extremely sad and unable to control her emotions. As she sat on the saddle, she began to play sorrowful melodies on a stringed instrument. A flock of geese flying southward heard the music, saw the beautiful young woman riding the horse, immediately forgot to flap their wings, and fell to the ground. From then on, she acquired the nickname "fells geese" or "drops birds."
Zhaojun was born to a prominent family in Baoping Village, Zigui County. In 36 BC, Emperor Yuan chose her as his concubine from Nan county. Zhaojun left her hometown and entered the harem of Emperor Yuan in early summer. When choosing a new wife, the Emperor was first presented with portraits of all the possible women. Because of Zhaojun's confidence of beauty and temperament, she refused to bribe the artist Mao Shouyan as other women did. So he painted a mole of widowed tears on Zhaojun's portrait. As a result, she was never visited by the emperor and overlooked, remaining a palace lady-in-waiting.
In 33 BC, Huhanye Chanyu visited Chang'an as part of the tributary system between the Han and Xiongnu governments. He requested to become an imperial son-in-law. Emperor Yuan ordered that the plainest girl in the harem be selected. He asked for volunteers and promised to present her as his own daughter. The idea of leaving their homeland and comfortable life at the court for the grasslands of the far and unknown north was abhorrent to most of the women, but Wang Zhaojun accepted. When she was summoned to court and her beauty revealed, the emperor wanted to keep her! However, it was too late, and, the emperor, sadly, presented Zhaojun to Huhanye, who was delighted. Relations with the Xiongnu improved and Mao Shouyan, was put to death for his actions.
Wang Zhaojun embarked on the long, hazardous journey to Xiong-Nu. Once there, she persuaded Huhanye to abandon violence. As a result, peace reigned on the border with China for over 60 years. She also introduced Chinese culture. When Huhanye died in 31 BC, Zhaojun asked to return to China. Emperor Cheng, however, ordered that she follow Xiongnu custom and become the wife of the next shanyu, which she did. Her life became a popular subject in Chinese poetry, drama and novels. As she was loved and respected by the Xiongnu, Huhanxie Chanyu conferred on her the title of the First Lady of Xiongnu Peace. The Communist government of the People's Republic of China made her as a symbol of the integration of Han Chinese and ethnic minorities of China. There is a Memorial to Zhaojun in Inner Mongolia. Today, her name not only symbolizes physical beauty, but also a spirit of goodwill to bridge different cultures, even at the expense of one's own interests.
Lyrics Translation:
Wang Zhaojun ... Menzuo carved saddle ... Remember Han Emporer ... Day and night ... Evening twilight Zhao Zhao ... Feel dejected
future prospects are vast and obscure... Seeing extreme emptiness ... See wild goose down ... cut off from the sound of Hengyang
Months dim ... Flashback wild geese ... Beyond the Great Wall wind and frost ... horses hooves pounding ... busy
All day thinking ... Night pondering ... Soul dreams and remembers the king
Yangguan beginning to chant unforgettable memories of the past pipa repeating itself ... Looking back at the homeland ... rivers and mountains - total heartbreak
Rememering my family circumstances ... missing Xuanen County... Attached to these feelings forever .. Far removed from my homeland
Old dreams of the past... Old dreams of the past ... Empty melancholy
Yangguan chanting again ... Filled with grief ... Pipa repeating itself ... Fixing my attention on weeds ... Wild flowers covering the roads ... The other end of the world, vast and unknown
Also see the wild geese falling ... Frosty roads ... Hu landscape Hills decayed by water destroying the hills ... Not in the mood to appreciate beauty
Yangguan final chant ... Future is desolate ... Three plays on the pipa
Looking towards one's future prospects ... Drifting and uncertain ... Gazing at my king expectingly
Gazing at my monarch expectingly ... Soul returning to Han territory ... Witness the morning sun After a long ponder Place of God forever
Forever thinking of and missing One pipa song just regret forever

folk song
It's like picking up the pieces is a daily chore
Thinking of your time card forms a habit
Watching rick folks on T.V.'s like picking a sore
Fuck it all, they can have it
And now I'm loaded like a gun again
Like a plague of locusts heaven sent
Just a ball of dissension with a death perception
I won't sweat the definition of content
They said "better safe than sorry" and "look out for #1"
I heard "only play the cards your shown"
Fuck what they say
It doesn't matter anyway
Only in your grave are you alone
Like grown men staring with little boy's eyes
And actresses speaking with conviction
These people should demand a pulitzer prize
For various works of fiction
"Judge a book by it's cover"
And "keep one eye on your back"
I heard "only play the cards your shown"
I say fuck what they say
It doesn't matter anyway
Only in your grave are you alone
So many people with so much to show
Rotting away in their own little holes
One can only wonder why
I'll celebrate my home
But know that I'm not alone
Only fools are "along for the ride"
In think of the size
Of the world that's right outside

Researchers at Cardiff University have just put forward their new theory — — about why this cycle changed so dramatically ... Read more. ....
