Lyrics of Tao Linzhu's birch forest

The quiet village is covered with white snow

Pigeons fly in the haze

The birch is engraved with those two names

They swore to love each other all their lives

One day the fire of war came to my hometown

The young man took up his gun and rushed to the frontier

Sweetheart, don't worry about me

Waiting for me to come back in the birch forest

The sky is still cloudy, there are still pigeons flying

Who's going to prove that

Love and life without tombstone

The snow is still falling and the village is still peaceful

Young people disappear in the birch forest

The bad news came that afternoon

My sweetheart died in the distant battlefield

She came to the birch forest in silence

I want to be there every day

She said he was just lost in the distance

He is sure to come

Come to this birch forest

The sky is still cloudy, there are still pigeons flying

Who's going to prove that

Love and life without tombstone

The snow is still falling and the village is still peaceful

Young people disappear in the birch forest

The long road is coming to an end

The girl is already grey

She often listened to him calling from his pillow

Come on, honey, come to this birch forest

When he died, he murmured

I'm here waiting for me in the birch forest

I'm here waiting for me in the birch forest
