Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “Grandma”
ér shí wǒ cháng cháng tīng rén shuō
儿 时 我 常 常 听 人 说
In my childhood, I frequently heard stories from others.
guǒ zhe xiǎo jiǎo de nà gè
裹 着 小 脚 的 那 个
Referring to the woman with bound feet
shì kùn zài shēn shān lǐ de ā mó
是 困 在 深 山 里 的 阿 嬷
She is the grandmother trapped in the mountains
tā hé ā gōng shì bāo bàn de
她 和 阿 公 是 包 办 的
Her marriage to grandfather was arranged
dà zì yě bú shí jǐ gè
大 字 也 不 识 几 个
She could barely recognize a few characters
jié hūn qián lián miàn dōu méi jiàn guò
结 婚 前 连 面 都 没 见 过
Before marriage, they hadn’t even seen each other’s faces
chuī yān piāo guò
炊 烟 飘 过
Smoke from the kitchen rises gently
zhǔ fàn de chái huǒ bǎ yāo yā wān le
煮 饭 的 柴 火 把 腰 压 弯 了
The firewood used for cooking bends her back
yā wān tā bú zhǐ chái huǒ
压 弯 她 不 止 柴 火
It’s not just the firewood that burdens her
huáng hūn rì luò
黄 昏 日 落
As dusk falls
ā gōng qiāo zhe wǎn kuài bǎ gē chàng zhe
阿 公 敲 着 碗 筷 把 歌 唱 着
Grandfather taps the dishes while singing
tā měi tiān bāi zhe shǒu zhǐ tóu shù rì zǐ guò
她 每 天 掰 着 手 指 头 数 日 子 过
She counts the days on her fingers daily
děng yuǎn fāng kāi lái de chē
等 远 方 开 来 的 车
She waits for the distant car to arrive
mén kǒu de bǎn dèng zài nà cóng méi nuó guò
门 口 的 板 凳 在 那 从 没 挪 过
The bench at the door has never been moved
yǎn shén hái zài qī pàn zhe
眼 神 还 在 期 盼 着
Her gaze remains hopeful and expectant
tā shēng le yī gè yòu yī gè
她 生 了 一 个 又 一 个
She gave birth to child after child
kě dōu bèi yuǎn fāng de fēng chuī zǒu le
可 都 被 远 方 的 风 吹 走 了
Yet they were all swept away by the winds from afar
shān nà biān shì shí me
山 那 边 是 什 么
What lies beyond the mountains is uncertain
shì ér nǚ gāo lóu zuò
是 儿 女 高 楼 坐
It’s where her children live in tall buildings
bǎ tā yí wàng zài shēn shān lǐ de jiǎo luò
把 她 遗 忘 在 深 山 里 的 角 落
Leaving her forgotten in a corner of the mountains
hé nà biān shì shí me
河 那 边 是 什 么
What resides beyond the river remains unknown
shì niáng jiā de cūn luò
是 娘 家 的 村 落
It is her family’s village
tā guǒ zhe xiǎo jiǎo kuà bú guò nà tiáo hé
她 裹 着 小 脚 跨 不 过 那 条 河
With her bound feet, she cannot cross the river
tiān yòu hēi le cài yě liáng le
天 又 黑 了 菜 也 凉 了
As night falls, the vegetables grow cold
tā děng de rén hé shí néng huí lái ne
她 等 的 人 何 时 能 回 来 呢
She wonders when the ones she waits for will return
chuī yān piāo guò
炊 烟 飘 过
Smoke from the kitchen rises gently
