Chinese New Year – Spring Festival – Lunar New Year is coming and I have selected three songs for you to learn and sing with the family or friends for the Chinese New Year. These are not the classic traditional songs for the Chinese New Year. These are the contemporary songs that will go very well with the celebration of the Lunar New Year! I include the lyrics in Chinese characters and pinyin for you to follow along with the music videos.
The first song, Huí jiā guò nián 回家過年 – Going Home for Chinese New Year by Zhang, He Xuan describes the anticipation of returning to the hometown for the New Year from an adult child’s point of view. It is beautiful and it is like telling a story .
張赫宣 回家過年 Huí jiā guò nián – Going Home for Chinese New Year by Zhang, He Xuan
The second song, biān pào 鞭炮- Firecrackers by Wang, Da Wei describes the excitement of setting of the firecrackers. It is a fun song to sing along. Get some bubble wraps ready and pop them when you sing along.
王大為 鞭炮 biān pào – Firecrackers by Wang, Da Wei
The third song, Xīn nián hǎo 新年好 – Happy New Year by Qiao Hu 巧虎 is an easy song to follow with all the important New Year’s greeting phrases in it. Dance and sing along with Qiao Hu. Do you know Quao Hu is originally from Japan, its name in Japanese is Shimajirō?

#1 回家過年 – Huí jiā guònián – Going Home for Chinese New Year lyrics in traditional Chinese characters:
過年啦可以回家啦
可以看見想念的爸媽
我那光屁股亂跑的大寶貝
現在是不是很聽話
隔壁的老王還好嗎
聽說頭髮光榮下崗啦
這次我帶著媳婦回家過年
看來減肥是沒戲啦
爸爸每天的心情還好嗎
還報不抱怨新鑲的假牙
本打算買很多的東西回家
可實在是拿不下
回家過年啦合家團圓啊
回家過年啦歡天喜地呀
回家過年啦張燈結綵呀
回家過年啦歲歲平安啊
爸捨不得穿又捨不得花
總把好吃的留到我回家
總是怕我凍著又怕我累著
怕我受委屈不告訴他
我那親愛的不省心的媽媽
隔夜飯就不要再吃啦
家裡的老冰箱一定要換
捨不得也得聽我的
回家過年啦合家團圓啊
回家過年啦歡天喜地呀
回家過年啦張燈結綵呀
回家過年啦歲歲平安啊

鞭炮
作曲:王大文 編曲:王大文 作詞:葛大為、王大文
外面好熱鬧 誰在放鞭炮
有種快樂全世界都聽得到
把心願許好 把難過忘掉
空氣裡面瀰漫祝福的味道
LOVE LOVE
願意跟你分享這一刻美好
LOVE LOVE
想讓幸福在每一個角落圍繞
鞭炮
難得這麼熱鬧 到大街上逛逛 遇見誰都微笑
ooh ooh bop
不如來個擁抱 氣氛如此美好 我想你也知道
ooh ooh bop
突然嚇一跳 誰在放鞭炮
提醒我把所有孤獨刪除掉

如果可以我要讓所有人都知道
LOVE LOVE
願意跟你分享這一刻美好
