LISTEN TO SHIRLEY SINGING THE SONG -- Sep 8, 2006   

"Cherishing the Memory of My Comrades-in- Arms" is one of the songs from the movie The Guests on the Ice Mountain and I had introduced its theme song   Why Is the Flower so Red for you days ago.

In fact, I had learned and had sung the song many days ago. So, since my vocal music teacher will not come to offer me a lesson for her travel to Lanzhou City to visit her parents tomorrow evening -- as transmigrant city, more than 99% Shenzhen people are from the othe places, so, now, I try to make this song on the web site and hope you will like it...


MAIN MEANING OF THE SONGLISTEN TO SHIRLEY SINGING THE SONG：

My hometown is by the Tian Shan Mountains,
when I left it,
it just likes the Hami melon
that has broken its vine.

My beloved girl is living by the white poplar,
when we left each other,
it just likes a musical instrument of Du Ta Er,
that has been idle on the wall.

The Hami melon is still sweet,
even though the vine is broken.
The Du Ta Er will be played again,
when the musician comes back.

When I have lost my comrade-in-arms forever,
it just likes the snow slide
that has been down ten thousand miles,

Ah,

My dear comrade-in-arms,
I can not see your manful figure
and kind face again.

Ah,

My dear comrade-in-arms,
You can not hear my music and my songs again...
