Chiu, Yen-Nan
I wrote lyrics of Seven Pieces of Psychological Aid Songs for COVID-19 Pandemic with the intention to do my part in mental health promotion for combating COVID-19. Hope these seven pieces may bring positive mind energy to overcome COVID-19, with relaxing and animating tempo, and good intention; to reduce distress from pandemic impact; to facilitate cohesiveness in combating COVID-19 globally.
Introduction the meaning and the lyrics of seven pieces of psychological aid songs for COVID-19 Pandemic
First piece: Queer Coronavirus
To present the feature of coronavirus as different from creatures which we see in daily life, in a funny way.
Coronavirus, coronavirus, ran so fast, ran so fast!
One got no tail, one got no ears, super queer, super queer!
Coronavirus, coronavirus, ran so fast, ran so fast!
One got no eyes, one got no mouth, super queer, super queer!
(Note: May change the name of coronavirus in good intention)
Second Piece: Coronavirus Ran Fast
Coronavirus cannot be seen by eyes or perceived by touch. They would sneak in our countries and our bodies. It is very important to take them out through quarantine!
Coronavirus run so fast, take a ride over all the world!
No visa, sneak through ports, is it okay or not okay?
Not okay, not okay, Sneaking in the body, so cunning, so cunning;
Take them out by quarantine!
Coronavirus run so fast, take a ride over all the world!
No visa, sneak through ports, is it okay or not okay?
(Note: May change the name of corona in good intention)
Third Piece: I Had a Top Q Face Mask
To remind:
The top quality face mask is useless if one does not use it appropriately. We need to learn how to do nice self-protection and to establish a sound habit.
I had a top Q face mask, but I had never worn it out.
One day I put on it for a fancy party call.
We kept on drinking n sang along, higher n higher I got.
Don’t know why…, bla-bla-bla…, I caught a corona.
(Note: Q: Quality; May change the name of corona in good intention)
Forth Piece: I Have a Grateful Mind
Feel honored from the family members who participate in combating COVID-19 for us all. Warm regards are very important during quarantine period! To take part in psychological aid for COVID-19 may bring you knowledge of self-care and empower your peaceful mind.
Pa n Mom are brave n kind, honor to my home.
Fight for corona, for you and for me.
Go on, go on, father n mother;
I’ll take care of the family.
I have a grateful mind; I have a grateful mind!
Fifth Piece: Keep Calm for Corona Hit
To do self-protection and warm mutual care together, to enhance the power of volunteers and to feel grateful for protection teams, may bring you a peaceful mind.
Keep calm for corona hit; kind-minds linking together.
Warm needs sent to my house; full heart with the support teams!
Hi-Yo Yi-Yo-Yi-Yo Hun-Hi-Yo,
Hi-Yo Yi-Yo-Yi-Yo Hun-Hi-Yo,
Hi-Yo Yi-Yo-Yi-Yo Hun-Hi-Yo,
Hi-Yo Yi-Yo-Yi-Yo Hun-Hi-Yo!
(Note: May change the name of corona in good intention)
Sixth Piece: Happy to Fight Corona Hit Together (Original song: Ten little Indians; lyrics by Yen-Nan Chiu; 2020)
To imagine the happy outcome of fighting COVID-19 together and globally; through individual and group adaptive collaborative effort to turn things good.
One man fights how lonely it is.
One man fights how lonely it is.
Fighting together true happy; fighting together true happy.
Spin n jump up, feeling free;
Spin n squat down feeling safer.
Relax spin n smiling sweetly;
See how happy we are!
Seventh Piece: Formosa Unforgettable Love (Original song: Washington Square; lyrics by Yen-Nan Chiu; 2020)
Show gratefulness and unforgettable love to Formosa team-up members for combating COVID-19. To cherish the democratic system we built, the freedom and human right we own, the benevolence of our fellow people, the precious socio-cultural heritage, the beautiful and enriched lands we live on, and the modern technology we developed.
Warm hearts from Formosa, my dearest motherland.
Central Mountains guard us all, Mount-Yu highest all.
Night market people love, freedom rainbows shine.
Suppliers fight for me, unforgettable love; unforgettable love.
Kind minds from Formosa, my dearest motherland.
Facing pandemic corona, count on mindful care.
Protection done, you n me, everyone keeps well.
Medical teams fight for me, unforgettable love; unforgettable love.
