稻香 [Dào xiāng] [English translation]

If you have too many complaints about this world

If you are too afraid to carry on when you fall

Why is it that we have to be so fragile and depraved?

Please switch on your television and watch

How many people are still bravely fighting for life

Shouldn't we be contented

And cherish everything even those we don’t own

I still remember you saying home is the only castle we have

Keep on running along with that fragrant paddy and little stream

Slightly smiling I’ve always known my childhood dream

Stop crying Let the fireflies take you away

Country music is always there when we need it

Go back home Go back to the good old times and the beginning of beauty and peace

Don’t think about giving up so easily

Remember what I said

If you can’t realize your dream then just simply change one

Paint and color your life brightly

First of all start with painting love in your favourite color

Come on, Give me a smile Fame or success aren’t our goals

Making ourselves happy and joyful is the real meaning of life

Now the paper plane of my childhood Flies back to my hand at last

Barefooted, chasing dragonflies in the paddy field till tired

The so-called happiness

Stung by the bees while stealing fruits, swearing never doing this again

Who’s sniggering there?

I’m leaning against the scarecrow in the wind, singing songs till finally fallen asleep

Oh Oh The guitar sounds even more crunchy in the Insect singing afternoon

Oh Oh Fearless of heartbreaking when the sunshine spreads on the roads

Cherish everything even those we don’t own

I still remember you saying home is the only castle we have

Keep on running along with that fragrant paddy and little stream

Slightly smiling I’ve always known my childhood dream

Stop crying Let the fireflies take you away

Country music is always there when we need it

Go back home Go back to the good old times and the beginning of beauty and peace

I still remember you saying home is the only castle we have

Keep on running along with that fragrant paddy and little stream

Slightly smiling I’ve always known my childhood dream

Stop crying Let the fireflies take you away

Country music is always there when we need it

Go back home Go back to the good old times and the beginning of beauty and peace
