Lyrics of the earth by Tan Jing

Travel all over the world

You can't walk out of an inch of land

In your generous arms

Winding the long road of life

Rivers flow in legend

Vegetation dancing in the wind and rain

On your beautiful field

Grow man and all things

Children's children learn to walk here

My parents came from here

O earth

You are the source of endless years

You are the destination of all life

How many heroes are born

How many allusions are buried

Your tall and straight mountains and ridges

These are unyielding heads

The earth

Give us dream and home

Give us love and grain

You use the magnificent spring and autumn

Capital immortal picture

Children's children learn to walk here

The parents of their parents came into the earth from here

O earth

You are the source of endless years

You are the destination of all life

Children's children learn to walk here

The parents of their parents came into the earth from here

O earth

You use the distant horizon

Again and again

Holding up the sunrise again and again

The earth
