lyrics
There is a girl who loves to raise red-crowned cranes since she was a child.
After graduating from college, she returned to the place where cranes were raised.
But one day, in order to save an injured red-crowned crane,
Slipped into the swamp and never came up again.
Have you ever heard of crossing that river?
A girl has been here before.
Have you ever heard of walking through this reed slope?
A girl left a song.
Why do white clouds cry quietly?
Why do gusts whisper?
Uh-oh, and a group of red-crowned cranes.
Fly gently across the river.
Have you ever heard of a girl?
She has been here before and walked across this reed slope.
Have you ever heard of a girl?
She never came again, only Baiyun shed tears for her.
Only the wind sings for her, uh-oh.
There are also a group of red-crowned cranes flying gently.
Only Baiyun shed tears for her.
Only the wind whispers.
Uh-oh, and a group of red-crowned cranes.
Fly gently, ah ah ah?

Creation background
"A True Story" is a song tailored by musician Xie Wei. This song tells the story of Xu Xiujuan who gave his life to protect the red-crowned crane.
1986, Xu Xiujuan was invited by Yancheng Nature Reserve in Jiangsu Province to go to a wild population of red-crowned cranes without migration. Xu Xiujuan brought the eggs of three red-crowned cranes and hatched three little red-crowned cranes with her body temperature. 1June, 987, Xu Xiujuan brought two red-crowned cranes from Zhalong Nature Reserve to Yancheng.
At that time, the two red-crowned cranes didn't return to their nests on time, so Xu Xiujuan went out to look for them and died in the swamp. In memory of her, Xie composed her story into this song. Zhu Zheqin likes this song very much. She cried many times while recording and singing.
