Xin nian kuai le!
Every girl and every boy!
Xin nian kuai le!
Everyone is full of joy.
Sweep the house
Clean your room
Sweep the house
Get the broom.
Out with the old
In with the new
Nice new clothes
For me and you.
There’s lots of food
For New Years Day
Put all sharp things
Well away.
The lion roars
The dragon sways
There’s lots of fun
On festive days.
Shining bright
The lanterns light
And firecrackers
Fill the night.
Xin nian kuai le!
Every girl and every boy
Xin nian kuai le!
Everyone is full of joy.
