[苗寨情歌] 朵蝶朵阿 - 你象一朵花

Duo-Die Duo-Ah - You are Like a Flower


English lyrics translated from Miao(Hmong) language:
You are like a flower blooming at the cliff of the hill.
I want to pick you up but I am afraid of stings.
If you want, I will climb up the cliff disregard the fear of falling down to death.
Then I will bring you home.

About this song:
It is a beautiful anti-phonetic love song. The singers used a typical Miao singing technique: Miao Vibrato. It is interesting to compare Miao Vibrato with Korean Vibrato (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wo47I... ). A key feature of the Miao Vibrato is that it sounds like a resonance from the mountain. It reminds the audience that many Miao people are living in mountain areas. So when you listen to this song, you fell like you are in a beautiful green mountain with fresh air surrounding you.
