It's the most important day of the year
It's the day that marks the new beginning with happiness and cheers
It's the day where Chinese folks get together with their family members
It's the New Year in the Chinese calendar
The eve of New Year is where family members get together
For an authentic and wonderful dinner
Talk about the old times that has long disappeared
Making jokes while having beers
As it gets to midnight, families would prepare for prayers
Making wishes to God of Fortune for business to prosper
Giving "Ang Bao" to children so that they will grow up to be smarter
Lighting up fireworks to chase the "evil spirit" that instill fears
The New Year Day would make everyone happier
Friends and family visiting one another
Enhance relationships so that everyone gets closer
Giving hope and offer wisdom for their faith to grow stronger
Lion dance performance make family atmosphere much merrier
The sound of drums and action are suppose to make the family luckier
Making the whole house felt a lot warmer
Fill with nothing but joy and laughters
Chinese New Year is about "getting lucky" which is quite true for many gamblers
Many take the opportunity to have friendly gambling session with their peers
Usually the winner will treat everyone with a nice meal
As a symbol of diplomacy that there are no losers
On the predawn of the 9th day, there will be prayers for God of Emperor
The God of Emperor is consider the savior
Traditionally celebrated by only Fu Kien but now getting popular
Many offer prayers to be healthier and wealthier
On the 15th day, it will be the final day before the celebration is over
Young couples will toss apples and oranges into river
Hoping to find their lifetime partner
It's another version of "Valentine Day" for the youngster
For those who are celebrating, here is wishing you a Happy Chinese New Year!!!
