HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR

[timroy]

We will be back in Timbaktoo soon...and for most part of next week. So here's wishing everyone in advance:

A HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS CHINESE NEW YEAR.

Dear Tim has written a popular and commonly heard Chinese New Year Song for you in hanyu pinyin, which he has learnt to sing since he was in Kindergarten. That is, if you can once again decipher what he has written:

Ma tiao dar ziye xiao xiang
Ma ce rend di zui ni
Zian mian zh u ju wa
Zio si gog xi gog xi
Gog xi Gog xi Gog xi ni ya
Gog xi Gog xi Gog xi ni
