Over the eras, people have picked lo tus, filling the mountains with song. From "How green the lotus leaves are, the fish play amongst the lotus leaves," to the Republican era's "the evening sun settles low in the sky, the evening breeze blows, let us sing the song of lotus picking," the lotus has been a powerful part of everyday life.
歷朝來人們採蓮採桑採茶，遍地民歌山歌，從詩經的「蓮葉何田田，魚戲蓮葉間」到民國的「夕陽斜，晚風飄，大家來唱採蓮謠。」荷花壯盛在實實在在的生活中。
