龍的傳人

Descendants of the Dragon

遥远的东方有一条江

Darling, in the distant orient, where there is a river;

它的名字就叫长江

It's called the Yangtze River;

遥远的东方有一条河

Darling, in the distant orient, where there is a river;

它的名字就叫黄河

It's called the Yellow River;

虽不曾看见长江美

I've never traveled on a cruise to see the Yangtze River;

梦里常神游长江水

However, I often visit the Yangtze River in my dreams;

虽不曾听见黄河壮

I've never heard the mighty grandeur of the Yellow River;

澎湃汹涌在梦里

Nevertheless, it surges powerfully and majestically in my dreams;

古老的东方有一条龙

My dear, in the ancient Orient there is a dragon;

它的名字就叫中国

Its name is China;

古老的东方有一群人

My dear, in the ancient Orient there are people;

他们全都是龙的传人

They are all descendants of the dragon;

巨龙脚底下我成长

I have grown up at the foot of this mighty dragon;

长成以后是龙的传人

When I grow up, I will also be a descendant of the dragon;

黑眼睛黑头发黄皮肤

With my dark eyes, black hair, and yellow skin,

永永远远是龙的传人

I will forever and always be a descendant of the Dragon;

百年前宁静的一个夜

One hundred years ago, on a calm night;

巨变前夕的深夜里

In the dead of night before the great changes;

枪炮声敲碎了宁静夜

Gunshots shattered the peaceful night;

四面楚歌是姑息的剑

Enemies from all sides attacked with relentless force;

多少年炮声仍隆隆

For many years, the roar of cannons continued unabated;

多少年又是多少年

For many years, for many more years;

巨龙巨龙你擦亮眼

My mighty Dragon, open your eyes and see clearly;

永永远远地擦亮眼
