Chapter 204 I Love You China [Overhaul]
Soon it was Ning Jing's turn as a girl's group. Ning Jing and Zhang Yali were in the same group and competed with other schools. This time, Ning Jing's group was given the topic "My Motherland" and had a limited time of five minutes to express their feelings about China.
Zhang Yali and Ning Jing discussed for a few words and finally decided to use the lyrics of the song "I Love You China" because nothing can be more touching than this song.
Ning Jing went on stage and bowed to the judges and introduced herself. Then she spoke in an authentic British accent, which translated into Chinese is:
My classmate Zhang Yali and I feel that no pale words can express our feelings for our motherland.
The song "I Love You China" expresses our feelings for China.
Ning Jing and Zhang Yali's voices rang out together:
Whenever I feel pain I want you to hold me tight
Touch my soul like you always do
Whenever I am confused
You give me warmth
Like someone's arm
Hold my shoulders tightly
Sometimes I feel lonely and helpless
Like a stone rolling down the hillside
But just thinking of your name
I will always regain my confidence
Sometimes I lose my way
Like a swallow that has strayed from the flock
But as long as I think of your existence
No more fear
I love you, my beloved mother in China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you, dear mother of China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
One day this song will get old
Like the buds on the youngest tree
But I will sing again and again
It's like my life
Some people will slowly disappear
Some emotions will gradually break
But you are always in my heart
Like the incomparable sun
I love you, my beloved mother in China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you, dear mother of China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I hope you will remember me as your wandering child
I miss you no matter where or when
I hope you know what you mean to me
No matter when or where you are, you are like my life
I love you, my beloved mother in China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you, dear mother of China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you, my beloved mother in China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you, dear mother of China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you, my beloved mother in China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you, dear mother of China
I cry for you and I am proud of you
There is no accompaniment and it is just a short passage of lyrics, but it has a shocking effect.
It reminds me of what our motherland has been like since its founding.
…
After the last note sounded and Ning Jing and Zhang Yali bowed, the judges finally reacted and stood up to applaud Ning Jing and Zhang Yali.
Some of the judges are very sensitive, including Director Zhang from their county’s No. 1 Middle School, whose eyes were a little red and swollen.
Then Teacher Zhang stood up, clapping and saying, "My children, you have given me so many surprises. Can I hug you?"
Director Zhang gave Ning Jing and Zhang Yali a hug with red eyes.
Ning Jing and Zhang Yali did not expect that the song would have such a good effect.
They chose this song mainly because they were the last to go on stage in this group. Many opinions had been expressed, and they didn't want to repeat others' opinions, which would be insincere, so they thought of this song.
I didn't expect to achieve such an effect.
Ning Jing and Zhang Yali decided to sing this song less often in the future, but they didn't expect it to make so many people cry.
Borrowing the lyrics from "I Love You China".
I was deeply touched after listening to it today, and cried again.
