Across the city, a quiet fell

As citizens farewelled

The city of Shenzhen

They’ll return yet again

Every year they partake

In their hometown embrace

At SUSTech, the classrooms are dark

Our laboratories eerie, the difference is stark

In some cases, our scholars work through the break

Scientific breakthroughs, they want to make

Others will travel the world

Their dreams unfurled

To all of our faculty, staff, and students

Have a safe trip, be careful in your movements

Enjoy lots of food, share the love with your family

Make sure you show them SUSTech hospitality

Be happy, be joyful, show them good cheer

On this day, we wish you a Happy Lunar New Year!
