歌词与翻译

[中文]

Once upon a time

Once upon a time

There was a father who got ill

There was a father who got ill

But he could not rest

But he could not rest

Cuz his five kids kept bickering

Cuz his five kids kept bickering

And one day he gathered them

And one day he gathered them

Words of wisdom to be said

Words of wisdom to be said

Who could break a bunch of chopsticks

Who could break a bunch of chopsticks

Would take over his gold

Would take over his gold

筷子一束难以折断孩子你呀

筋疲力尽终究没办法

三个皮匠胜过一个诸葛亮

Together made us as one

When we hold our hands

Together

We will never end

Together

Brave and bold the bond can't be sold

Like the chopsticks when they're held as one

Forever

Together

Together we're strong

Times is flying fast

That old story hasn't faded

Lesson from the past

We still need to keep on learning

Break the ice inside

Ain't no wall could ever stand between us now

Though we're apart

Even if we're miles afar

Our souls and hearts

Feel the music that could make us sing along

We're Asian hu uh

Người Châu Á

Rực sáng thiên hà

Dù nhỏ bé

Together we shine

Khi ta trong tay

We are Asian

We are Asian

Together we're strong

Brave and bold the bond can't be sold

Like the chopsticks when they're held as one

Forever

Together

Together we're strong

When we hold our hands

Together

We will never end

Together

Together we're strong

Together

Together
