A folk song 牧童之歌


This song is the very first song I learned when I was in the elementary school. It's a Kazak folk song. It has been engraved in my heart. Since I have been living in Montana, U.S. The beautiful stunning scenery I see everyday just reminds me of this song.



歌名:牧童之歌
Cowboy's Song

红太阳从 天山  慢慢地爬上
Slowly rising up the red sun above the Tianshan Mountain

风吹绿草,草儿把头扬
Green grasses are waving their head when the wind is blowing

骑上骏马扬起鞭
Ride on my horse, flick the whip

赶着牛羊下河滩
Herd my cattle and sheep down to the river shore

唱上一首歌呀
Sing, sing a song

心花开放
My heart is full of joy...
