Lyrics for the Song 'Bringing Rice to Mother for Plowing'
The sun shines brightly, the wind plays with my flowing hair
Rice basket in hand, I go to bring rice to my mother for plowing
Oh, mother, take a break, the midday sun is perfectly round
Mother eats hot rice, while leaving the buffalo for me to tend to
Tomorrow, the fragrant rice will spread across the village, the scent lingering on every hand
Verse 2
On the road of the anti-American campaign, father's last letter inquires happily
Spring rice adds its blossoms, corn and sweet potatoes flourish in the skillful hands of plowing
Oh, mother, you must be delighted, reading father's letter last evening
Father praises my memories, and you, industrious mother, raising the rice for tomorrow's harvest
When victory brings father back, we'll listen to your tales, mother
About a little clumsy child who brought joy by delivering rice while you plowed the fields.
