Now here's a story that'll make u cry
Straight from Taiwan they came
Just a girl and a homeboy in love
No money no job no speak no English
Nobody gonna give'em the time of day in a city so cold
They made a wish
And then they had the strength to graduate with honors
And borrowed 50 just to consummate
A marriage under GOD
Who never left their side
Gave their children pride
Raise ur voices high
Love will never die never die...
多年前寧靜的一個夜 我們全家人到了紐約
野火呀燒不盡在心間 每夜每天對家的思念
Many years ago on a tranquil night, our whole family arrived in New York
Nothing can destroy what is in our hearts: every night, every day longing for home
別人土地上我成長 長成以後是龍的傳人
巨龍巨龍你擦亮眼 永永遠遠的擦亮眼
巨龍巨龍你擦亮眼 永永遠遠的擦亮眼
I grew up in someone else’s land, after I grew up I became an heir of the dragon
Mighty dragon, mighty dragon open your eyes, forever and ever open your eyes
Mighty dragon, mighty dragon open your eyes, forever and ever open your eyes
