Girl from the Western Countryside
Hello there, I'm a girl from the western countryside,
Just arrived in the city, it's only been a few days.
Seeing the crowded streets around,
Cars crawling like insects everywhere,
Unlike my hometown, where the scenery is peaceful all year round.
Hello there, I'm a girl from the countryside,
Just got to the city, and already I want to go back.
Life in the countryside is so peaceful,
Unlike the city, filled with bitterness.
Perhaps the hustle and bustle don't suit someone like me.
It's more fun back home, it's more fun back home,
With green fields, white storks, and the fragrant scent of rice.
There's a long river dividing two banks, one side built up, the other eroded, where we meet.
Boys and girls on both banks, under the golden moonlight, we sit and sing together.
It's more fun back home, it's more fun back home,
Neighbors, relatives, the bonds of the community, we've had each other for generations.
In the city, there's so much competition,
Struggling with food, clothing, and money.
That's why no place is better than my hometown.
