Love a queen of hearts more than landscape---Li LiFen
(landscape implies country here)

Untold relationships and love in human society
Incomputable kind and enmity in life
With fate for generations
The same blood we flew
The same water we drunk
That's a long term far route
Red flowers of course match with green leaves
Who would be with me this life
Shuttled over and over out of focus
Scenes of former days emerged again
Lotus cut but actually connected
Sighing lightly what a variational world
Love a queen of hearts more than landscape
No hero would rather be lonely
Men should have more power
Their ambitions are world renowned
Life is short,counted by some autumns
Drink ceaselessly till drunk
My beauty is in the east
Yellow River is in the west
Come on and pass me a bottle of wine
Drink ceaselessly till drunk
Forget all the worries which annoyed us (repeat)

Life is short,counted by some autumns
Drink ceaselessly till drunk
My beauty is in the east
Yellow River is in the west
Come on and pass me a bottle of wine
Drink ceaselessly till drunk
Forget all the worries which annoyed us

very good way to present song and lyrics. the sound quality is good too.

[MspidermanM]

I'm happy that you like it,thanks.^^

the translation kinda loses the spirit of the song title.

basically, the whole song is sung around the dilemma of someone who has to choose between love and country.

"jiang shan" means country, of which the yellow river is a key part of. That's why the chorus tells of the difficult choice; The beauty wanting for the hero in the east, while the yellow river on the west reminds the hero of his duty to his country.

It's a popular theme in chinese stories, the balance between love and country

[eatfastnoodle]

damn, I still remember how I felt the first time I heard this song, it's like ages ago. Too bad the success of this particular song ultimately limited the singer herself to a very very narrow niche. All her subsequent songs, good or bad, gave out exactly the same vibe as this one, which subsequently turned the singer into more or less a one hit wonder. Such a waste, she got a really special voice.
