听说南方有雪
很多人没有见过的雪
专属北方寒带的雪
今年冬天在我的南方飘落

我的南方也有雪了
冬季的概念也在改变
候鸟会不会失去方向了
窗外飘雪 漫漫
大地一片苍白

我听说我的南方有雪
我温暖湿润的南方
如今也寒江冷雪
满街的裘衣暖袍
那是我四季如春的南方故国

They said it snows in my South
Oliver Hua


They said it snows in my South
Many people never saw snow there
The north exclusive snow
They are drifting in my South this winter

My South snows now
The concept winter kept changing
I worry about if the migrant birds may lost their directions
A boundless vast snow outside of the windows
A boundless vast white upon the earthly soil

I heard they told it snows in my South
My gentle mild warm and wet South
Now it is also with cold river chilly snow
Warm coats made of fur and feathers all over the streets
It is my South old country always spring feeling in all seasons
