天佑龔銘 God bless Gong Ming
民歌不是少數民族歌麯的特定稱謂。每個民族都有本民族世代相傳的麯風唱腔，漢族亦是如此。作為世界上分佈最廣、存在最久的民族之一，漢族歷史悠遠、文化燦爛，但正因其積澱深厚，鮮有歌手能唱出其代表特色。
Folk music does not only refer to the music of ethnic minorities. Each ethnic group has its own musical style that passes on from generation to generation, including the Han. Being among the most ancient and most widespread ethnic groups, the Han possess a long history and a bright culture, but because of the very depth of this background, seldom are there any singers who manage to express the Han’s distinguishing characteristics.

作品介紹 Introductions
《盛世中國》不論是旋律還是歌詞，都強勁體現出中華民族的強大力量。麯首激昂澎湃的鼓聲正是此刻中國人的心聲。隨着陣陣鼓聲的鏗鏘節奏，歌麯中“巨竜騰飛屹立在東方，世界人民共矚目”的恢宏盛景，使每一位中華兒女的自豪之情油然頓生，倍感驕傲。
In both melody and lyrics, Our Golden Ages strongly reflects the great power of the Chinese Nation. The enthusiastic drumbeats at the beginning of the song reflect Chinese people’s current state mind. Following the cling-clang rhythm of the drumbeats, the lyrics ‘a great dragon flying over the East, drawing attention from people all over the world’ describe a spectacular scene, arousing a strong pride in every Chinese mind.
