by Yang Hong and Zhang Quanfu
SATB a cappella
5:20 approx.
An a cappella arrangement of the popular Chinese song 月亮船 Moon Boat
Moon boat
Carrying mother’s songs
Floating into my cradle
Clear and bright
As if mother is looking at me
Smiling with her crooked eyes
Clear and bright
As if mother is looking at me
Smiling with her crooked eyes
Moon boat
The mystery of childhood
Floating into my dreams
Quietly takes the night
Unknowingly approaching the shore of youth
Moon boat
Carrying a small wish by my pillow
Moon boat
Carrying a wish in my heart
