Witnessing with the times, the transformation of mountains and rivers Holding fast to the belief of the pioneers May you, beyond this mortal realm, also see This prosperous era's small reunion Silent, wordless, pain Starlit, brilliant, night sky Once, didn't quite understand Strong grass must endure fierce winds Common, ordinary, the masses Born into the flow of time As days pass, I too will embrace you Honored today, in ten thousand homes, to see Joyful, smiling faces of the world Prosperity and tomorrow, being built On this day, can your wish come true? Witnessing with the times, the transformation of mountains and rivers The road ahead, stepping as you chose Grand wishes, finally can be seen This prosperous era's small reunion Blood so hot Makes me look up Realizing the hopes you held in your heart This prosperous era Sacrifices not in vain The blazing red sun shines upon the East Honored today, in ten thousand homes, to see Joyful, smiling faces of the world Prosperity, tomorrow, being built On this day, can your wish come true? Once promised, a glorious tomorrow could be seen Continuing your magnificent verse Stars in the sky, you in my heart Forever by my side Grateful for yesterday's bitterness and astringency Exchanged for today's sweetness ## Creation Information - Original Song: "As Wished" - Cantonese Version Performer: Tangtang YuzeTang - Lyricist: Not the Lyric God - Mixing & Production: Long Guocai Zenki - Subtitle Production: Kagura Daxian - Creative Concept: Cantonese songs for the mountains and rivers, a small reunion in a prosperous era - Release Platform: Bilibili --- ## Creative Background Since 2019, "Not the Lyric God" has held deep love for the motherland and profound reverence for the sacrifices of the martyrs.
