This song could be described as a love song, but not for a person. The song is an ode to the city of Hong Kong and was released in the 90s when the city was getting ready to be handed over by the British to China. The lyrics with some of the difficult words translated are below and the link to the song is here: http://www.xiami.com/song/381683
