The Lion Dance

The heavy drums roar
The light cymbals strike
The men hide inside the lion prop
The lion dances lively
The clown in front fans challengingly
The lion moves swiftly 
The lion rolls smoothly
Suddenly the lion jumps into the air
For the lettuce and the red packet Hung high at the door
The lion dance will usher in
Luck and fortune
In an enlightening and bustling way
Foods are catered for friends and relatives
Showing generosity and prosperity
