Kangding Qingge

[2] In 1946, while studying vocal music in Sikang Province, the Quanzhou native Wu Wen-ji had collected the song Paoma Liuliude Shanshang (On the Running Horse Mountain) amongst other local folk songs.

The song was then spread to the rest of China after being performed by then popular Soprano Yu Yixuan.

[4] The song has been performed or covered by many famous artists around the world, including Placido Domingo, Timi Zhuo, and A-mei.

There lies kangding town, bathed in silver moonlight.

Lovely maid with a sweet smile, Li the woodcutter's daughter.
