In Tiananmen Square

Lost my baby there

My yellow rose

In her bloodstained clothes (ropa manchada de sangre)

She was a short order pastry chef (una orden corta chef de pastelería)

In a Dim Sum dive on the Yangtze tideway

She had shiny hair

For my yellow rose

My yellow rose

In her bloodstained clothes

She had perfect breasts

She had high hopes (grandes esperanzas)

She had almond eyes (ojos almendrados)

She had yellow thighs (muslos)

She was a student of philosophy

Won't you grieve (afligirse) with me

For my yellow rose

Shed a tear (derramar una lagrima)

For her bloodstained clothes

She had shiny hair

She had perfect breasts

She had high hopes

She had almond eyes

She had yellow thighs

She was the daughter of an engineer

Do not forget do not forget

The children who died for you

Long live the Republic

Did we do anything after this

I've
