On the stage.
Ye Chen, Hong Hua, and Lü Ye were all seated on tall stools at the center of the stage.
As the beautiful melody began.
Sitting on his stool, Ye Chen opened his mouth and sang, "Cliffs faced cliffs above Foothold River, buckwheat flowers bloomed across Weining Grass Sea~ Who hung the moon~ up in the sky~ shining till the words I wished to say~ flowed into a sea, flowed into a sea~ flowed into a sea, flowed into a sea~~"
"Crossing endless mountains~ crossing boundless seas~ if hope still remains~ then spring will always warm until flowers bloom~ Please stay softly behind~ let dreams sweep away this dust~ fragrance drifts beyond the book compartment~ playing the beau~tiful sounds of heaven~~~~" Hong Hua sang.
Lü Ye sang, "Before the third watch passed and dawn turned white~ Lady Shexiang chased the moon home~ She painted sun~light upon her heart~ until the pitch-black night~ shone bright, shone bright~ shone bright, shone bright~~~"

Ye Chen, Hong Hua, and Lü Ye reached the final chorus together: "Wumeng~ Mountains linked to mountains beyond~ moonlight spilled over Resounding Water Rapids~ Can anyone tell me~ Yet heaven is calling~ out to you, huh~ One mountain~ crossing one river~ traveling through countless mountains and waters~ never lonely~ You once
