(Music)
Burst, burst, burst like a string of firecrackers!
Strike, strike, strike with a powerful blow!
Step aside, step aside, step aside kid, this is my swagger!
I am a man with no rival, man!
Every day is a great day, man!
Everything I touch turns to success, man, that is my style!
Hey, look at the high-spirited folk dance!
Ah, daily celebration is our guiding light!
Smearing sandalwood paste on ourselves,
Riding around on a bicycle,
We come singing in rhythm!
Getting ahead in the race,
And pushing ahead in the feast as well,
We will leap and jump high in mid-air!
Burst, burst, burst like a string of firecrackers!
Strike, strike, strike with a powerful blow!
Step aside, step aside, step aside kid, this is my swagger!
I am a man with no rival, man!
Every day is a great day, man!
Everything I touch turns to success, man, that is my style!
(Music)
I will not engage in petty cockfights,
Because I am the true fighting cock myself!
Like birds, a hundred people around,
Make them stand in awe, girl!
A leaping lion when I attack,
But get to know me, and I am pure gold!
All across the town and the world,
My name alone shines like gold!
Come on, come on, there is nobody,
Who can ever overtake us!
Smearing sandalwood paste on ourselves,
Riding around on a bicycle,
We come singing in rhythm!
Getting ahead in the race,
And pushing ahead in the feast as well,
We will leap and jump high in mid-air!
Burst, burst, burst like a string of firecrackers!
Strike, strike, strike with a powerful blow!
Step aside, step aside, step aside kid, this is my swagger!
I am a man with no rival, man!
Every day is a great day, man!
Everything I touch turns to success, man, that is my style!
Oh my, oh my, oh my!
Oh my, oh my, oh my!
We shall climb higher and higher,
We shall turn West into East!
As high as the sky goes,
We shall grow and triumph!
Light the sacred flame and show it,
This is a land of brave souls!
No matter what we do,
Hey, God is always on our side!
This is valor, grit, affection, and love,
We are a gathering that has it all!
Smearing sandalwood paste on ourselves,
Riding around on a bicycle,
We come singing in rhythm!
Getting ahead in the race,
And pushing ahead in the feast as well,
We will leap and jump high in mid-air!
Burst, burst, burst like a string of firecrackers!
Strike, strike, strike with a powerful blow!
Step aside, step aside, step aside kid, this is my swagger!
I am a man with no rival, man!
Every day is a great day, man!
Everything I touch turns to success, man, that is my style!
Burst, burst, burst, burst... hit it, hit it, hit it!
