Lyrics: Fan Yanqiao

Composer: Chen Gexin

Original song: Zhou Xuan

Night in Shanghai, night in Shanghai?

You are a city that never sleeps, brightly lit?

Music, singing and dancing.

See her, smiling?

Who knows her inner depression, nightlife?

All for food, clothing, housing and transportation

If wine doesn't make people drunk, Hu Tian Alakazam wastes his youth.

Twilight, sleepy?

Everyone went home, and their hearts followed the wheel.

For a change, Xintiandi

Don't have a new environment and reminisce about the past?

Nightlife, wake up like a dream.
