Chinese New Year comes with lots of greetings
In Cantonese, we say sun nin fai lok
For sayings, it’s got the simplest meaning
That’s just happy new year, like baby talk
For red pockets and work, it’s all money
So to that we might say nin nin yau yue
Because cash rules everything around me
Abundant wealth each year, this much is true
But money means nothing if you’re not well
So offer a hearty sun tai geen hong
For what that means, let me share the intel
It is simply wishing health good and strong
And finally you’ve got gung hei fat choy
As the kids follow with lai see dou loi
