Song lyrics of Cheng Fangyuan's Shanying(cheng fang yuan shan ying ge ci )

I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail

I'd rather be a hammer than a nail

Away, I'd rather sail away

Like a swan that's here and gone

A man gets tied up to the ground

He gives the world its saddest sound

Its saddest sound

I'd rather be a forest than a street

Yes I would, if I could, I surely would

I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet

Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would
