Cui Jian - Nothing To My Name

One of the most famous chinese 80’s rock band. My favorite song from them. Original title : “一无所有“ (Yi Wu Suo You) Lyrics translated : How long have I been asking you When will you come with me? But you always laugh at me For I have nothing to my name. I want to give you my hope I want to help make you free But you always laugh at me For I have nothing to my name. Oh... when will you come with me? Oh... when will you come with me? The earth is turning under your feet The waters of life are flowing free But you always laugh at me For I have nothing to my name. Why do you laugh at the pack on my back? Why do I always keep on going? The old horse stands before you With nothing to my name. Oh... when will you come with me? Oh... when will you come with me? I tell you I’ve been waiting a long time I tell you, here’s my final plea I want to grab you by the hands And take you away with me. Your hands, they are trembling Your eyes, they overflow with tears Do you really mean to tell me You love me as I am? Oh... when will you come with me? Oh... then you will come with me.
