:TPE Ai Piah Cia Eh Yia (Strive So You Can Win) :TPE

 

 

 

So this is a hit Taiwanese Hokkian song from late 80s, sung by Yeh Hsien-hsiu. It is so popular in Hokkian-speaking Area of Asia, the motivational lyrics in the song is so powerful even Chinese descendants in Southeast Asia who didn't really speak Chinese/Hokkian know the lyrics or can hum the song.

 

jit si shi ji ng mien luang than
Once failed, no need to lose hope


Jit si lok piek ng mien tan than
Once dreaded, no need to worry

 

na tang sit khi hi bang
Mustn't lose hope or

 

mui dit chui bang bang
Get drunk everyday

 

bo hun uu the chin ching eu chow lang
Body became soulless like a scarecrow

 

lin sin ko tee si hai seong eh po luong
Life is just like ocean's wave

 

wu si khi wu shi lo
Sometimes up sometimes down

 

ho un phai un
Good luck or bad luck

 

chong mai ciao ki kang lai kia
Just accept and get thru it

 

sa hun thi ju tia
30 percent from the Heavens

 

chit hun kho pa pia
70 percent from yourself

 

ai piah jia eh iah
Strive, so you can win

Ye Lay ( ရဲလေး), born Ye Htun Min, is a Burmese hip hop artist, In May 2013, he wed Aye Mya Aung, the daughter of Burmese minister Aung Min. That's what Wikipedia knows :p I just find this song catchy after a random search in Youtube.
