I believe that learning a song is a great way to learn a language, and my Chinese teachers thought so too. Today I will share with you all the first song I was taught in my Chinese class, which also happens to be one of my favorite Chinese songs. In my opinion, this is also the most popular Chinese song among foreigners. That is the reason why it is sung not only in Chinese classrooms but also in Karaoke bars across China.
| 看过来 | |
对面的女孩看过来 | duìmiàn de nǚhái kàn guòlái |
| 看过来，看过来 | kàn guòlái, kàn guòlái |
| 这里的表演很精彩 | zhèlǐ de biǎoyǎn hěn jīngcǎi |
| 请不要家装不理不睬 | qǐng bùyào jiǎzhuāng bù lǐ bù cǎi |
| 对面的女孩看过来 | duìmiàn de nǚhái kàn guòlái |
| 看过来，看过来 | kàn guòlái, kàn guòlái |
| 不要被我的样子吓坏 | bùyào bèi wǒde yàngzi xià huài |
| 其实我很可爱 | qíshí wǒ hěn kěài |
Here is the English translation
Girl from across, look over here
Look over here, look over here
The performance is very spectacular
Please don’t pretend to ignore me
Girl from across, look over here
Look over here, look over here
Don’t be frightened by my appearance
Really, I am very cute!
And this is how it ends…
哎。。。算了，回家吧
Āi. . . suàn le, huí jiā ba
Ah…forget it, let’s go home
This is a really fun song. Hope you will enjoy it.
Nice! How many girls have you sung that too?
