Below the Lion Rock (Chinese: 獅子山下) is a TV show about the lives of Hong Kong citizens.
Each series was a collection of unrelated stories produced by the RTHK, and depicted the life stories of different social strata set against backgrounds that are today part of Hong Kong history, such as the Shek Kip Mei Fire that burnt down the slums, and the early immigrants from Mainland China.
The show's theme song, also titled "Below the Lion Rock", was composed in 1979 by Joseph Koo, its lyrics were written by Wong Jim, it was arranged by Joseph Koo and Choi Tak Choi, and it was sung by Roman Tam for the opening theme song of the TV show.
Parts of the series were repeated on the ATV Home Channel after the lyrics of this song were recited by Anthony Leung, the then financial secretary when ending his budget report in April 2002.
On November 19, 2002, Zhu Rongji visited Hong Kong and used part of the lyrics in his speech addressing the public.
