Under the Ficus Tree（国风R&B 版•V4.0）
作词：泽希（Zesen）&东山居士（Easthill Hermit）
混音：东山居士（Easthill Hermit）
（重庆市城市宣传主题音乐系列）
Beneath the old tree light sways soft and slow
The cicadas sing throughout the summer glow
Its roots hold fast within the stony ground
River breezes drift to cool the warmth around
Grandfather knew this tree in his youthful years
Father tasted tea beneath its leafy spheres
Now I rest upon its roots and watch the ants roam
A tree outlives the stories of three generations home
Beneath the tree we share our tea roots bind the stone
The green in stone and step forever holds its own
Beneath the tree we dream and let our thoughts take flight
It keeps the memory of each passing guest in sight
Beneath the tree we pause to rest and breathe the air
This city’s quiet heart lies hidden everywhere
Its summer leaves linger till autumn draws near
New buds arrive before old leaves disappear
The townsfolk cherish past yet walk toward tomorrow
Keeping old affections while embracing new sorrow and joy
The stone path glints beneath long years of tread
Strong roots expand and spread where wall cracks spread
The tree stays mute yet sees all lives that come and go
The wandering wind becomes its gentle whispered sigh so low
Beneath the tree we share our tea roots bind the stone
The green in stone and step forever holds its own
Beneath the tree we dream and let our thoughts take flight
It keeps the memory of each passing guest in sight
Beneath the tree we pause to rest and breathe the air
This city’s quiet heart lies hidden everywhere
It witnessed ancient scholars bound for distant halls
And young school children with their bags and cheerful calls
It caught the boatmen’s chants along the river tide
And modern melodies played deep inside
The tree will never speak a single word
But it has seen how all the years have turned
A riverside dock grew into a vibrant town
Stray youngsters settled down and built their own renown
Beneath the tree we share our tea roots bind the stone
The green in stone and step forever holds its own
Beneath the tree we dream and let our thoughts take flight
It keeps the memory of each passing guest in sight
Beneath the tree we pause to rest and breathe the air
This city’s quiet heart lies hidden everywhere
Beneath the old tree bonds will never break apart
Where the tree stands where roots live there beats our heart
