Opera lines

Henan Henan Opera Chaoyanggou (lyrics)

Silver ring: the great construction of the motherland is advancing by leaps and bounds

I can't read the endless news of victory.

The countryside is a vast world for young people.

I won't take the selected mountain area for thousands of roads.

Leave the city and go to the countryside for education.

The students left one after another without hesitation.

Mom, mom.

When did you agree to let me go?

I wish I could fly with wings.

You, you

I am writing to advise you not to visit you.

Is there no post office in youxian county?

Peach blossom, pear blossom and willow catkins.

Half a year has passed in an instant, and I am worried and anxious.

Silver rings, etc. ：

Walk across the ridge of a mountain.

The air in the ravine is really fresh.

Rows of fruit trees, weirs.

The terrace surrounds the mountainside layer by layer.

Working people decorate mountains and rivers with their hands.

How much sweat is poured into it?

Qinglingling is flowing water, and it keeps flowing in spring and summer.

Head up to the water rock.

The Shili Grand Canal flows with clear springs.

In the old society, there were nine droughts in our mountainous area for ten years.

Draught water is more difficult than eating oil.

Color photos of cattle full slope sheep full mountain image

Apricots bend branches like garlic braids.

Before liberation, the landlord occupied every inch of land.

It was only after liberation that the leadership of the Party became what it is today.

Why was that mountain cut in half?

Building a canal tells it to move the house with stones.

How can I see this magnificent picture at school?

Chaoyanggou is a good place with a good reputation.

I became a member of the commune.

I will never get tired of living here.

Another version:

Cross the ridge to climb the mountain.

The air in the ravine is really fresh.

This mountain is like a lion rolling hydrangea.

Nadaoling Fontaine Sunward Winged Fan

Qinglingling is flowing water, and it keeps flowing in spring and summer.

Head up to the water rock.

It looks like a pearl shutter.

The wild flowers on the slope are one after another.

Terraces are layered around the mountainside.

Rabbits run around between mountains and rocks.

What kind of bird is nodding?

East Mountain Head Cattle and Sheep Cleisthenes calls.

Cried the little shepherd boy, whipping his whip.

Peach, pear and apple trees block the sun.

Bonus pears bend branches like garlic braids.

Rape flowers fluttered in the wind and butterflies fluttered.

Crop seedlings are green like tapestries.

Chaoyanggou is a good place with a good reputation.

I will never get tired of living here.

Silver ring bolt:

Over a mountain, through a depression.

What crops are planted in this land?

Millet is planted on this land.

Pumpkins are planted in this field.

I know this piece is corn.

Needless to say, that piece is castor.

This is not castor, this is cotton.

I know this is Schizonepeta tenuifolia.

It's not Schizonepeta, it's sesame.

I want you to come to our house.

Say what you know.

Don't talk like that.

Neighbors heard it.

Laugh off your teeth without tears.

Bundled insurance:

Since you wrote to the country.

Chaoyanggou is busy these days.

Publicity meeting of the old branch secretary

My second aunt plastered the wall with red and green slogans.

How many times does little sister go to the village head to pick her up a day?

My mother can't sleep, just because the night is long.

My father told everyone that there was hope.

Do scientific research and cultivate improved varieties with help.

Just like fighting in the countryside today.

A word from your mother, you hand over your gun.

Being a revolution is not just the beauty in the declaration.

Only actions can measure thoughts.

The poor and middle peasants sincerely look forward to us.

I hope we can go to the countryside as soon as possible.

Don't wait until noon in the morning.

Wait until noon.

Looking forward to it every day and thinking about it every night

Waiting for you, I hope you miss you, I miss you.

Who knows your heart?

Better than that popsicle

Baby mother:

I'm really sad to see the new quilt.

Complain about your own mother, you foolish wife.

Yin Huan, she is willing to go to the countryside. There is nothing wrong with the road.

You shouldn't have dragged her back

I won't be angry if you don't come to my village.

Well, I shouldn't say that I am an old mountain nest.

Deep mountain canyons have existed since ancient times.

I am no taller than you.

Since I established the people's commune

Eat and drink without worry.

Thousands of years of barren hills are full of trees.

Dry land has flowed into Qinghe for thousands of years.

You said the mountain is high and the road is far.

I have become attached to the car this year.

As long as it is a silver ring, she has made up her mind.

It's no use saying it's worn out.

You came to see the daughter in the village.

I want to see where your old face has gone

My wife had a good dream last night.

I dreamed of a silver ring and came to see me when I came in.

Call mom first, then call dad.

Working in the fields is very neat.

Help my wife learn cultural chemistry.

I am too happy to say it.

The old man pushed me aside.

Old thing, you've never been a mother-in-law in your life.

I woke up suddenly and heard a chicken crow three times.

I never closed my eyes one night.

Baby mother:

Silver ring, don't worry too much.

We have a good harvest here every year.

Cotton white whisker

Radish is green, Lingling.

All the wheat seeds are full.

Cabbage is magnetic when it grows.

Your father can work all year round.

Your sister has been diligent since she was a child.

The whole family will have five of you.

You are the first student in this city again.

When the bell of our team rings.

Your sister, your father-in-law

You move forward verbally.

They followed.

Men, women and children go into battle together.

Our family is twisted into a rope.

In order to change the poverty valley, we have our own skills.

Second aunt:

My nephew in the army wrote to me.

Letters came one after another.

He is always concerned about our production.

You write.

The ravine is getting better every year.

Thousands of people like to laugh and be satisfied.

Work is like fighting at the front.

Determined to work hard, through thick and thin.

The apple trees in Yecaowan blossom and bear fruit.

The fish raised in the reservoir weigh five pounds each.

Walnut trees at the foot of the holy slope cover the sky.

Cattle and sheep in Daqingzhuang Livestock Farm.

Secretary Liu of the county led the exploration team.

From Dongshan to Xishan

From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain

The red flag is full of Yangpo brain.

He said that our canyon is a cornucopia.

You write.

I have never been ill for three years.

Old man, he said I was a tough guy.

You wrote an old branch secretary to make fun of me.

He said I removed two wrinkles.

Then write that you also come to settle in our village.

High school students come to the ravine to become farmers.

Baby mother:

Silver ring, what do you think of yourself?

In my opinion, you have both shortcomings and achievements.

The two girls are not angry about going to the countryside.

You will never change your mind and come to the mountains.

Members go to bed late and get up early to increase production.

You are a bright moon, too. You are more active.

The whole village is happy in their eyes.

They say you are enthusiastic, diligent and active.

You should be strict with yourself.

We are determined to build a new mountain area.

Poor and middle peasants regard you as a treasure.

I hope you will make great achievements in the countryside.

I hope you move forward and don't retreat.

You can't take culture as a burden.

Bundled insurance:

We have been in school for three years.

Talk about everything when you get along.

I can't forget that you asked me to meet Dong Cunrui.

Do you remember when I asked you to see Liu Hulan?

Dong Cunrui does harm for the people.

Liu Hulan bled for his motherland.

I watched it again and again.

Your blue pen points to my red pen circle.

I was once moved to tears.

You used to write poems and stick them on the bed.

Let's have a gay wish.

Determined to be an ambitious young man.

You said that the party would do anything it asked.

Never be choosy and bargain.

You said it, you said it.

You have forgotten every word.

Think about the martyrs who are better than us.

Where does it hurt? What's the difficulty?

You can go if you want.

I am determined to work in the countryside for one hundred years.

Silver ring:

Go to the ditch.

The scenery is still refreshing and soft.

East Mountain Head Cattle and Sheep Cleisthenes calls.

I moved a step, and my heart was full of sadness.

The wildflowers who just went to the countryside smiled at me face to face.

Now see me frown and shake my head.

Qiang color looked back at the door.

I can't forget that your family raised me.

Your mother has done enough to support me.

The kind Li Zhishu is worried about me.

My little sister stopped me before and after running.

To protect your safety.

Criticize and encourage strict requirements

This is the road I walked when I went to the countryside.

Learn hoe here. I'll throw my teacher in.

That is the sweet potato that we grow with water.

This is the early autumn when I hoe the ground myself.

That's the apple pear tree you grafted.

It becomes fat and thick in the blink of an eye.

The crops that have just gone to the countryside have just been unearthed.

After autumn, the big hoard comes to the small hoard.

The members tried to ride the wind and waves.

I am like a ship without rudder, drifting with the tide.

I can't get enough of it.

Step by step, a tear filled my throat.

I go home to see my classmates and friends.

What can I say to socialize?

Take a step back, take two steps back, or don't go.

Qian Shan, thousands of waters can't cover my face.

where am I going? where am I going?

An unforgettable Chaoyang ditch.

I am full of good crops.

It's hard for me to give up and lose

Chaoyanggou has had another bumper harvest this year.

People stay, so does the land.

Bundled insurance:

Comrade Yin Huan, stop. I'll say it again.

You leave at once and wait for me to finish.

I just went to the country and stood side by side here.

You swore an oath on behalf of your classmates.

You said that revolutionary martyrs contributed their youth to the people.

The new generation will follow their lofty aspirations and sweat on the mountains.

Comrade Yin Huan, look up at this mountain again.

Who is watching your silver ring firmly?

Chaoyanggou was covered with blood and sweat.

I told you, I dare to put out the fire and go to Daoshan only when necessary.

The old branch secretary recalled the night when he struggled.

Have you ever written a diary in the light?

Tears have been shed in the diary.

Express your determination to change rural land.

Silver ring, you are determined to take the oath.

Say something grandiose

Why are you? Why?

In case of setbacks, you (I) will completely forget me.

Second aunt:

Look forward to coming during the day and waiting at night.

Chaoyanggou welcomes you to be a recruit again.

I heard you wanted to put the canyon in.

Be a farmer in a ravine

My village is happy, old and young.

I welcome you on behalf of the ladies.

Old branch secretary:

The whole commune checked the leap forward plan.

Mountain construction is still firmly grasped.

The water in the falling rock hangs high on the cliff.

Thousands of years have formed a natural gap.

Let it listen to us this time.

Matchmaking for socialism

Where is the gap?

How big is the traffic?

Design and do it yourself.

Draw your own pattern

Build a hydropower station by indigenous method.

The party branch has plans to participate, so do you.

Second Aunt, Baby Mother, Ma, Qiao Zhen:

Mom, sit down.

Let's talk from the heart.

Mom, let's all sit down.

Let's pull.

Old sister-in-law, come to my house.

Try the big watermelon in the ravine.

Since Yin Huan left home.

Know that you are often worried.

Go out without a quilt.

She left home in a hurry.

Go home and have a look.

What is paved and what is covered?

Made a new set of bedding.

Li Xin Xin Biao Xin cotton

I have never cultivated land at home.

She never took a hoe.

You can do anything at home and in the wild.

Ten people saw nine people bragging.

Willing to work hard and educated.

Don't worry about being what. What? What? What-

When an agricultural scientist

Yes, as an agricultural scientist.

She can't sew.

The bowl is still too numb for the wrist.

She doesn't have to stick her hands to eat and dress.

Existing Qiao Zhen An Niang

Don't worry, old sister-in-law

Mother-in-law won't be hard on her.

Born at home to drink water.

Never leave tea three times a day.

There is boiling water all day.

There are two or three teapots and thermos bottles.

Mother-in-law is a loyal person

Sister-in-law is like a mother.

The son-in-law is a good member.

Her father-in-law

Her father-in-law is an old hand at farming.

Although we had a few arguments,

Complain about my poor level and attitude

A family doesn't talk about two things.

My mother treats me like a real mother.

Our family should listen to the party.

Chaoyanggou is our home
