(Translation with singability in mind.)
•---[ Stanzas 1, 5, 9 ] _(Rhyme : aaaa)---•_
*那是你秋天依恋的风*
That's your lingering autumn wind,
*那是你漫山醉人的红*
That's your hill-staining tipsy tint.
*那是你含情脉脉的心*
That's your tender heart of longing,
*酸酸甜甜招人疼*
Sweet and sour, you're darling.
•---[ Stanzas 2, 6, 10 ] _(Rhyme : aaba)---•_
*你是我一片思乡的情*
You're a shade in my homesick blues,
*你是我童年最真的梦*
You're the truest dream in my childhood.
*你是我藏在心中的歌*
You're the song cherished in my heart,
*今天唱给你来听*
Today I sing it out for you.
•---[ Stanzas 3, 7, 11 ] _(Rhyme : aaaa)---•_
*又见山里红*
Again I see this red,
*久别的山里红*
The long-missed Mountain Reds.
*你把太阳的色彩*
You soak in the hues of sunset,
*浓缩成故乡情*
Nostalgic juice is expressed.
•---[ Stanzas 4, 8, 12 ] _(Rhyme : aabb)---•_
*又见山里红*
Again I see this red,
*故乡的山里红*
My hometown's Mountain Reds.
*你把燃烧的岁月*
You knead in the joy of old days,
*融化在我心中*
Melt it in my heart to stay.
•-.. [ Stanza 12 ]-•
*你把燃烧的岁月*
You knead in the joy of old days,
*融化在我心中*
Melt it in my heart to stay.
