Lyrics of Basang's "the voice of Loba"

(singing in Tibetan)

Um, Puda, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

The green mountains are full of sunshine,

The waves rolled up the green water;

The new village of Luoba is picturesque,

The songs of the frontier villages are flying.

Ah, more gold, more gold,

The songs of the frontier villages are flying.

We, Loba, are very ambitious,

Fly in front of the sun;

Water the garden with both hands,

Flowers bloom on the border of the motherland.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,

Flowers bloom on the border of the motherland.

The green mountains are full of sunshine,

The green water rolls up layers of waves;

Luoba new village is beautiful and picturesque,

The songs of the frontier villages are flying.

Ah, uh, uh, uh, uh,

The songs of the frontier villages are flying.

Ah, we are heading for the future,

Flying towards the brilliant ideal!

Mmm, mmm, mmm!
