涟漪 Lian Yi 1/23/2023: Home
Happy Spring Festival! I hope everyone has been having a good new year. Like many of you, I’ve been eating a lot of good food and spending time reconnecting with family. I’ve also been thinking a lot about what it means to be with family, what home means, and what it means to feel safe. With what happened this weekend, it seems more important than ever to hold onto that. So, I hope the collection of songs here can soothe you and remind you about the beauty of this holiday. As a reminder, most Cpop songs lack official English translations, so I have translated most of them myself. If you want to look anything up, it’s best to stick to the Chinese names.
