Northwest of China, in Gansu Province
Forty degrees, hotter than Jennifer Lawrence
In Ancient China, major place on the Silk Road
Dunhuang city, prepare for mind BLOWN!
Why’s it so hot, cuz we’re in Dunhuang
Dry weather, chapped lips bring that Lip balm
If you touch the sand, please bring your oven mits
Cuz the sand will incinerate your fingerprints
Dunhuang is home to endangered animals
Przewalski’s horses, Wild Bactrian camels
Wait, how do you pronounce the name of those horses?
Let me teach you how to say it, so you don’t need no courses
Shuh, like shut the $%^& up but less profane
Val like Kilmer, former Bruce Wayne
Ski, the main event of winter Olympic Game
Shuh-Val-ski’s Horse, that’s how you say the name.
Only twenty-eight alive, in nineteen forty five,
Thanks to conservation, now three thousand survive Przewalski’s horse, the true wild horse existing
All other horses born from domesticated breeding
The Wild Bactrian camels, future dark like Coca Cola
One thousand alive, almost extinct like Motorola
They need to be Stayin Alive like the Bee Gees
Or else these poor camels will be in deep feces
Lucky for them, Dunhuang is their salvation
Conservation efforts maintain continuation
Dunhuang city has the dopest oasis
With crystal lakes, trees and vegetation
中文大意:
中國西北部的甘肅省是絲綢之路上一個主要的地方。那裡夏天的氣溫高達四十度,比勞倫斯珍妮佛還熱。那裡氣候乾燥,唇膏也無法避免乾裂的嘴唇。如果你想摸摸地上的沙子,就一定要帶上手套,否則沙子會燙傷你的手指。敦煌是瀕危動物的家,那裡有普氏野馬和野生雙峰駝。
在1945年時,只有28匹普氏野馬存活。因為保護措施好,現存的普氏野馬達到3000多匹。普氏野馬是真正「野生」的,而其他的馬都是由被馴化過的馬繁衍而來的。野生雙峰駱駝,存活的數量更少,現在全世界僅存大約1000峰。敦煌很重視保護它們,這對普氏野馬和野生雙峰駝來說是很幸運的。敦煌有沙漠中的綠洲,有湖泊,有樹木還有綠色植被。
