Beijing Huanying Ni (Beijing Welcomes You)
Lyrics: Lin Xi Composer: Xiao Ke
Welcoming in another dawn, Bringing along fresh new air,
The atmosphere has changed but emotions remain the same, Aromas of tea fill the air with friendly feelings.
The doors to my home are always open, My arms are open waiting for you,
After a warm embrace you’ll have a tacit understanding, And you’ll fall in love with this place.
People near or far are all our guests, So please don’t be shy,
Let’s make arrangements and meet together, We all welcome you.
My house is full of evergreens, Blossoming with each new legend,
Sowing seeds for our traditional land, Planting memories just for you.
Strangers and familiar faces are all our guests, So please, no need to be formal,
It doesn’t matter how many times you’ve been here, There are too many topics to discuss.
Beijing welcomes you, Opening the sky and breaking land for you,
Our mesmerizing movements are filled with lively energy.
Beijing welcomes you,Sharing the same breath of air under the sun,
Creating ground breaking achievements on this yellow land.
The doors to my home are always open, Openly accommodating the sky and land,
Youthful smiles bloom over the years, Welcoming in this special day.
Everyone between the sky and land are our friends, So please don’t be shy,
Paintings and poems contain our cheerful intentions, Because we’re waiting for you.
Beijing welcomes you, Like music, emotionally moving you,
Let us all work hard and try to excel ourselves.
Beijing welcomes you, Anyone with a dream is extraordinary,
With courage there will always be miracles.
