| Song | Great Big Wall in China |
| Artist | Abigail Washburn |
| Album | Abigail Washburn & the Sparrow Quartet |
| 作曲 : Driessen, Fleck, Sollee ... | |
| You can tell a flower to bloom | |
| On the other side of the moon | |
| But for you and me it's hard to see her glory in the sun | |
| Even if she climbs high into an ashen sky | |
| A fading light for out of sight | |
| will signal her blooming day | |
| So a spaceship we must build | |
| Set off from our window sill | |
| The journey's long to carry on, especially in the dark | |
| Even if we ask a distant star where the blooming flowers are | |
| She may shoot us back on her jumbled ray | |
| To the land from whence we came | |
| But from space we'll see | |
| They built a great big wall in China | |
| Built it up to the pearly gates | |
| I wanna land right beside her | |
| Hither come what may | |
| The storyteller stands | |
| Upon the city gate and says, | |
| “I too have seen a coming dream | |
| I talked to stars | |
| Got close to mars, and | |
| Got shot back to where we are | |
| I wish all could see what I have seen | |
| The trembling light of a distant flower in the night” | |
| They built a great big wall in China | |
| Built it up to the pearly gates | |
| Gotta take down the banner boys | |
| Hope it's not too late |
