"Sending My Lover" is a folk song widely circulated throughout my country. Its melody is derived from the ancient Chinese "Meng Jiang Nu Diao", which originated in Yangzhou, Jiangsu and spread to Shandong, Northeast, Anhui and other places.
Lyrics:
Firstly, I don’t want you to worry, secondly, I don’t want you to worry
Thirdly, I don’t want you to wear the wrong clothes, slave’s pocket
The little sister’s pocket is actually the silver chain
The lover’s pocket is the eight-treasure wishful hook
Firstly, I don’t want you to panic, and secondly, I don’t want you to be busy
Don’t wear the wrong one, the slave’s clothes
My little sister’s clothes are originally those with flower sleeves
My lover’s clothes have long horse hoof sleeves< /p>
The little sister sent her lover to Damendong
Respect God, don’t let the wind blow when it rains
It’s better to let the wind blow, then the light rain will be good< /p>
The light rain can keep my husband, stay a few more minutes
The little sister sent her lover to the south gate
Took it out from the waist, What a bunch of money
This bunch of money is left for the lover to use on the road
Brother lover, you are thirsty and hungry, use it to hit the tip
Little My sister gave it to her lover and sent it to the west of the gate
When I looked up I saw a pear seller
I wanted to buy some for my lover
Another thought about my lover brother, he doesn’t like eating sour food
The little sister sent her lover to the north of the gate
Looking up to see the wild geese flying south, lining up in a row< /p>
The wild geese flying south will always return to the north
Brother Lover, if you go now, I don’t know how long it will take you to come back
Brother Lover, if you go now, I wonder how long it will take you to come back
