Lyrics: unknown

Singing: folk songs

Lyrics:

Man: Masingue took a lampstand (yo-yo) and wrote a letter, and took it with her sister (yo-yo).

Lang has gone to the army, and my sister is (also) at home (ah), so she can't come for three to five years (yo).

You were transplanted to different places.

Woman: Masingue set up a lampstand (yo-ho) and wrote a letter (also) to take it with Lang (yo).

If you don't come to me for a year, I'll wait for a year. If you don't come for two years, I will suffer for two years (yo)

The lock won't open until you get the key

Extended data:

Ma Sang Zi's lampstand is a Sangzhi folk song that has been sung for a long time. The author of the song is no longer subject to censorship. In the Ming Dynasty, under the call of the imperial court, Sangzhi Tusi led thousands of Tujia children from Sangzhi to Jiangsu, Zhejiang and North Korea to fight against Japan for three times, and his songs always accompanied the soldiers' journey.

This folk song also belongs to Hunan folk song. It is a masterpiece of Sangzhi folk songs, an intangible cultural heritage of China, and a classic in the treasure house of China folk songs.

Sangzhi folk songs describe the feelings of husband and wife separated by thousands of miles through euphemistic tunes and simple language, showing a simple and loyal love view, and this love folk song was given a touch of bright red during the Great Revolution.
