The long awaited Kung Fu Panda 3 is about to hit our screens!  The theme tune is a cool bilingual song called ‘Try’ by Patrick Brasca and Jay Chou.  Why not learn the Chinese part to sing along? Even if you are new to Chinese, singing along will help your brain network the sounds of those unfamiliar pinyin syllables!  And you can impress your friends with Kung Fu awesomeness in Chinese!

Lyrics to the Chinese part, with pinyin transliteration and English translation see below the video link.

我说几华里我送别了过去                 I say, I waved goodbye to the past at a place a few miles away
他们说人生的结局非常的戏剧        They say, the ending of life is very dramatic
塞外羌笛孤城马蹄                              Beyond the Great Wall, there is a lonely castle, with Qiang (an ethic group) flutes singing and  horses trit-trotting.
在武侠的世界里谁与谁来为敌          Who is whose enemy in the world of Kongfu masters?
黄沙里用竹笔写下的字叫勇气          Yellow sand rises. “Courage” is written down with Bamboo stick

这世界有些事有些人凭感觉               Follow your feeling to understand people and the world
别管他旌旗密布遍野狼烟霜雪            though banners waving, smoke signals rising, frost and snow covering the wild
那故事在穿越而我也在翻页               That story is travelling across time, and I am turning to a new page
一行行做好准备敏锐而直接               Be prepared, word by word, abruptly and directly

爱不灭真实的一切废话全收回            Love never destroys truth, so stop chattering nonsense.
