We should stay strong, cheer up each other and face difficulties with smiles no matter how great they are. Though we cannot see smiles behind masks each other at the very moment, we can see firmness in eyes each other.
The winter will pass,
The spring will come,
We will win the battle if we work together with one mind
Let’s stick together and wait for the spring to come!
