Like Mulan Going to war war war war
For my family I do more More more more
没人可以除了我我我我(I be the one who’s gonna take it all)
勾勒江山挥笔墨墨墨墨(Painting the landscape of my homeland with my brush & ink)
Like Mulan Going to war war war war
For my people I do more More more more
没人可以除了我我我我(I be the one who’s gonna take it all)
刀枪在我手中握握握握(Holding my sword and spear in my hands)

Just like Mulan I ain’t never swallow my own pride
从不装柔弱 除非带领的兵已败 (I ain’t gonna play nice until I lose my battle fight)
I make my Kung-fu moves, get ya mortified
骑着战马(Riding on my war-horse) with that whip yeah I am born to ride
yeah I'm born to die 我不可辜负的使命 (The mission that I can’t fail)
Born to fight 走遍东西南北带着自信(My footsteps across the world with confidence that I can tell)
永远不让须眉不管规则是谁制定 (I never back down as a female)
Everyday 我潜心修炼吟诵着诗经 (practice and chanting The Book of Songs for my future) (Chinese Ancient Classic Poetry)


烽火连天般灿烂花季 低下头以念画地 (My teenage years full of flames and gunfires, I can only look down to draw a line on the battlefield with my thoughts)
我万里赴戎机的侠义 都化作这一瞬间下笔 ( My chivalry of marching ten thousand miles to war comes down to this moment when I start writing)
女子亦有深明大义 谋如媚娘面如妲己(Females can be heroic too in their own way)
宠辱不惊 不闻窗外事 路遥便知马力 (Always staying true and focused, so the odds might be on my side )

刀枪在我手中握握握握(Holding my sword and spear in my hands)


春闺梦里 (I had a dream)
无人问津 孤城落日斗兵稀 (I was standing in a desolated city in the fading twilight with nobody around)
恨别家万里 (Homesickness hit me at the moment)
双眼迷离 羌笛胡琴碎铁衣 (My vision blurred when I hear the dreary melody coming from the Shepherd's flute and Huqin Fiddle far away)
No guns and bullets still gonna shoot
十八般兵器（Eighteen Arms of Wushu) to the fullest Imma prove
唧唧复唧唧当户便停机杼(Like Mulan was only weaving at the backyard when her father was almost conscripted, she suddenly made a move)
泪湿金甲看尽灵旗征战处 (Tears are falling on her golden armor but she knows that she can’t lose)

Like Mulan Going to war war war war

没人可以除了我我我我(I be the one who’s gonna take it all)
刀枪在我手中握握握握(Holding my sword and spear in my hands)

男子可为之事未必女子不可为(We can do anything if we’re down to work for it)
棋逢对手太嚣张做巾帼不后退(If my enemies tried to cross the line I have to fight back)
孤身披甲赴沙场露獠牙嗅蔷薇((At the war all by myself, showing my teeth just to threat and inhale the aroma of the roses around just for a peace of mind)
血肉横飞平常眼前一片黑白灰 (The smell of blood and flesh invaded my brain and all I see is black&white)
Stepping over dead bodies how she made it
Say less just did it proving we the greatest
Loyalty inside of me I ain't gonna trade it
叩云鬓的金簪细 日暮曲终挥别 (When the gold shining hairpin finally touches her black hair at her home after war, the amber sunset faded, it’s time for me to leave, too.)
