歌词翻译 (English)
Descendants of the Dragon
In the Far East there is a river; its name is Chang Jiang (Yangtze River)
In the Far East there is a river; its name is Huang He
Though I have never seen the beauty of Chang Jiang, through dreams the river's waters flow
Though I have never heard the strength of Huang He, it surges turbulently in my dreams.
In the ancient East there was a dragon; its name was Zhong Guo (China)
In the ancient East there was a group of people; they were all descendants of the dragon
Under the foot of the great dragon I grow, grow into a descendant of the dragon
Black eyes, black hair, yellow skin, forever a descendant of the dragon
A quiet night a hundred years ago, the deep dark night before a revolution
The sound of guns and cannons broke the silent night; indulgence wielded the weapon of battle (?)
How many years do the cannons ring out, how many years and how many more
Great dragon, great dragon, rub your eyes and awaken; rub your eyes and awaken forever.
