Impression: Li-Jiang [印象:麗江] @ Day 6 - 11Feb08

“一个曾经被遗忘的王国
一座至今无人登顶的神秘之山
一场用灵魂书写的演出
一场用心灵观看的盛宴
一场我们白日里做的梦。。。”

Most of the best thing in our trip started at Li Jiang on the 5th day onwards. So, I can't wait to share with you one of the best show - "Impression: Li-Jiang". It's was unforgettable! I personally love the show very much. Thus, I like the theme song ［回家］ badly (:P) even I don't understand what is't about (sing in Naxi language). But, I feel very touching. So, I can't help to stop my tears while watching the show with the music.

It's lead by film director Zhang Yi Mou (张艺谋) (director of Hero, House of Flying Daggers), Fan Yue (樊跃)and Wang Chao Ge (王潮歌). The show takes place inside Jade Dragon Snow Mountain [玉龙雪山] Park at 3500m in an outdoor theater，which was specifically designed to showcase the mountain and used as a backdrop. The show was aims to provide an insight into the lives of the region's ethnic groups especially Naxi, Yi and Bai through song and dance.

歌词大意:

在这里 每一天 每一天
我们都在享受
大自然的洗礼 阳光的洗礼 雪与山的洗礼 水与草的洗礼
被黝黑的皮肤洗礼 被高亢的吼声洗礼 被直灼的目光洗礼
被粗糙的双手洗礼 被无邪的笑容洗礼
直到现在
站在这里的 我们
清澈 通体透明 目光纯净
直到现在
我们发现 活著 是如此真实 美好
我们凭什么 不去感恩生命
在这里的你们 和我们一样
远离了钢筋水泥的喧嚣 洗净了凡庸俗事的困扰
从未有过的 快乐地大口呼吸
难道这不是大自然给予的恩泽么？
难道这不是大自然给予的厚待么？
请把你的双手交* 放在额头
让你的目光遂远 向著天的方向
双手合十 展开你的双臂
高举过头 许下你的愿望吧
在这个神奇的地方 它给予我们想要的快乐
许下你最想实现的愿望
跟著我们 穿过这扇憧憬的神奇之门
将你的愿望 留在这盛满五谷的香炉中 留在印象丽江
