“Hannah” a Naxi friend from Lijiang China, introduces and sings a traditional Naxi song :

三月百花开

花开的艳丽

牡丹花最好看

丽江净土里

这么多的男孩子

心里面的人

我最钟意你

The flowers bloom in March,

they are so brightly-colored.

The peonies are the most beautiful

in the paradise of the West, Lijiang.

There are so many beaus,

but the person in my heart that means the most is you.

哈尼童谣 A Hani Rhyme

我在西双版纳认识了一个哈尼朋友叫真落。我录下了她给我讲的一个世代相传的哈尼族的一个童谣。I made a Hani friend in Xishuangbanna Yunnan, named Luo. She allowed me to record her retelling a traditional nursery rhyme of the Hani.
