In the depths of the deep sea of coal
A beam of light is flickering
That’s our miner
Illuminating the landscape hundreds of millions of years ago
Tear apart the veil of the night with your hands
Spreading youth and sweat
Light up the lights in thousands of homes
Sending light and hope
Despite the darkness they were in
My heart is still full of love and sunshine
In the depth of 100 meters underground
Looking for the dawn of a happy life
A miner’s lamp forgotten by the sun
Silently endure the baptism of years
With hands full of traces of time
Decorate this hot land with gorgeous makeup
The vow of no regrets
Still inspiring
That is a promise to my family
That is the yearning for safety
They use hard work and tenacity
Writing a hymn of the new era
Salute to the miners’ lamps
The parked dream sets sail here
