"On this Chinese New Year Day"
-- by 九鳥 'Nine Birds'
-- Translated by Frank C Yue

On this Chinese New Year Day,
Let's all be thankful and pray --
For Fortune and Peace to All!
We hope 'Baby Jiawu' will bring
Civility and Prosperity hence-forth, 
To make our hearts sing!

O Fine Stallion, do lead us to the Land
(-- We'll follow hand-in-hand --)
Of Milk, Honey and Peace
While the Fish-Dragon 
      soars o'er the Seven Seas!
