Lyrics of mourning drum

Since Pangu divided heaven and earth, floods have raged.

Drowned Kyushu, leaving only two brothers and sisters.

Fell on a high mountain, and my brother was getting married.

Sister was disobedient, so Dr. Jin Pi came.

Being a matchmaker makes a couple.

Later, ninety-nine children were born.

There is only a man named Zhao Gan Sun who specializes in Wu.

In the funeral drum music of Changyang in western Hubei, there is also a groundbreaking Pangu.

When Chaos first came out of Pangu, I was a foot and a half.

Holding a pioneer axe, splitting the middle soil.

People depend on Huang San, Huangdi and Ren Huang.

Emperor Xuanyuan wove towels, and Emperor Shennong tasted a hundred herbs.

Sisters and peers are the songs of creation of mankind.

The intersection of heaven and earth gives birth to Buddha, and the intersection of the sun and the moon gives birth to an old man.

Tortoise and snake combine to give birth to Huanglong, and sisters combine to give birth to offspring.

When I gasify, I clean up. ...

There are many songs about the death knell, such as sisters suitable for future generations, mice complaining, pregnant songs and so on. Legends of other songs can also be transplanted to sing.

Although the funeral drum is sung for the dead, the singer is sad but not sad, mainly to help the bereaved in this form. As the old saying goes, "If a person dies, many people will be mourned, and one family will beat gongs and drums to help", and "You can't afford tofu, you can't afford to send feelings, and you can't afford to beat drums all night" are all the best explanations.

The mourning drum has a broad and profound mass, which has been passed down from generation to generation and has never faded. A funeral is usually sung by one drummer and two other drummers, or by the drummer himself or with another person.

At the funeral, the drummer is in front, and the singer is behind. They walk around the coffin and sing, and then the percussionist plays music around the coffin. undertaker also sings along, and there are more singers, usually seven or eight or more. Whether sitting in mourning or turning to mourning, the solemn mourning hall is used as a singing place, during which sadness and excitement, mourning and comforting life are organically unified.
