新年的钟声 ，
                           余音未尽，
                           又吹响了，
                           打工的号角。
                           
                           惊扰了团圆的酒兴，
                           驱散了欢聚的快乐，
                           新春热闹的气氛，
                           早如云散飞过。
                          
                           老人们听了，
                           期盼的泪水，
                           沉满了衰老的皱纹；
                           惦记的情愫，
                           装进四季难眠的心窝。

                           孩子们听了，
                           纤细的小手，
                           紧抱父母不放，
                           沙哑的哭声，
                           稚嫩的咽喉已被震破。
                           
                           打工者们听了，
                           忧心忡忡，
                           留下，
                           养老育子资金重担压肩；
                           外出，
                           尽孝抚养又无着落。
 
                           打工的人们啊！
                           留也忧忧，
                           去也忧忧，
                           两全其美的路，
                           真是难以开拓。
