《Orange Blossom Cup · Meitan Ballad》
——For Guizhou Meitan Orange Blossom Cup Tea
Lyrics by Sheng Ju Liang

【Verse 1】
27th Parallel North, cloud seas nurture green shoots
In Tea Classic's ink traces, millennia weave tales fair
War fires forge tea's soul, Meijiang's waters, Zhe's streams so fair
Nine scholars taste new cups, spring hills laugh at sunset glow

【Chorus】
Orange Blossom Cup Tea, millennium's splendor refined
Seventy years of orange scent, Jade Pot's spring melody afar
A cup of spring's embrace, lips and teeth hold gentle grace
Yizhou's moonlit night, tea smoke blesses each home

【Verse 2】
Old factory's orange snow, scenting April's veil so sheer
Golden palms catch sweet dew, green hue through purple clay appear
Three sips to cleanse the soul, calm the mind, nurture bloom
Where tea smoke curls and swirls, old friends and new marvel soon

【Bridge】
Qimen and Longjing far away, let's savor Meijiang's brew
Milky dew in golden cups, icy pitcher melts moon's glow
Where tea songs float along, orange scent roams the world through

【Chorus · Repeat】
Orange Blossom Cup Tea, millennium's splendor refined
Seventy years of orange scent, Jade Pot's spring melody afar
A cup of spring's embrace, lips and teeth hold gentle grace
Yizhou's moonlit night, tea smoke blesses each home……

(Instrumental fades out, lingering rhyme)
