这里的歌曲集合主要有挤奶歌，用来预算未来的解梦歌曲以及预示吉祥的吉祥歌。这里的歌曲集合只是四月无村歌曲中的极小一部分，其它还有赞扬歌，情歌，宗教歌曲，历史歌曲，儿歌，幸运歌，藏族锅庄歌曲以及民谣等。儿歌是这其中最几近流失的歌曲之一。

挤奶歌是由母传女或姐妹间互相传授来传承下来的。此处的歌者是在七岁时从外婆那里学唱的这首歌曲。解梦歌曲和吉祥歌无任何禁忌，并且在亲属间代代相传。

吉祥歌通常会在宴会及婚礼庆典上吟唱，而解梦歌曲则在放牧或宴会时吟唱。

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 宋体;">民谣是适宜任何人歌唱的曲目，并且在农牧区都广为流传。它的曲调以及歌词在康巴和安多地区也是不尽相同的。在四川康巴地区，这种歌曲通常会在送别客人（如歌曲</span><span lang="EN-US">1</span><span style="font-family: 宋体;">）和赞扬家乡时吟唱（如歌曲</span><span lang="EN-US">2</span><span style="font-family: 宋体;">）。</span></p>

The songs in this collection represent only a small part of the song repertoire in Shibao Village. This repertoire includes: fables, praise songs, milking songs, dreaming songs (songs about dreams, which Tibetans regard as prophetic signs), history songs (songs about describing famous historical moments), auspicious songs (songs about describing propitious times), wedding songs, love songs, lullabies, propitious songs, religious songs, folk songs, and circle dance songs. Of all these genres, the most endangered are the propitious songs, lullabies, and praising songs, and it is these that we present here.<span> </span>Lullabies are mostly sung by women while taking care of the baby and it is a technique that Tibetan ancestors invented to sooth the baby into deep sleep. Praise songs are sung by both men and women to praise charming landscapes, livestock, and high status people. Propitious songs are also sung by both men and women to bless listeners with good fortunes. Such songs contain lyrics such as these: &#8220;The bottle is full of medicine, showing good fortune. The pot is full of milk, showing good fortune.&#8221;</span></p>

<p>一直以来，受到在藏区起着主导力量的佛教文化的影响，宗教歌曲的相应出现也不足为奇。这样的歌曲大多由男子吟唱，但是妇女也可以。普遍在仪式场合的开始和结束时唱来祈祷参与者未来的幸福和事业的成功。不过，在有些地方唱来祭祀山神。<br />
由于重男轻女的一些佛教概念，这些歌曲大多由男子吟唱；以为妇女的月经使她们不洁，并处于较低的社会地位。</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US">Walton recorded these songs in his hometown in Qinghai&#8217;s Hualong County in the winter of 2008. He said, “Recording these songs was a very difficult but interesting experience for me. The greatest difficulty I faced was getting the singers to sing in front of the recorder, because they had never seen a recorder before. I was only able to record them with much persuading.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US">In this collection he selected two of his favorite songs. The first song is a festival song, sung by Pad ma don ‘grub who was born in February 1975, and learnt it from his grandfather, and expressed that “it was very difficult to learn it because I am illiterate and the lyrics are very long.” Another reason that Walton chose this song was the fact that it is sung at a locally famous archery competition; it describes the process of making an arrow, the arrow&#8217;s origin, and wishes that the arrow will succeed in the future.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US">The second song is also a festival song, sung by the same man, but very different and very special because: 1) apart from the singer, only his grandfather can sing it in the whole township, 2) it describes the process of making barley wine that all families in Tibetan agricultural places traditionally made and enjoyed drinking at celebratory gatherings. At such parties, it is only after this song is finished that people can start to drink <a>wine</a></span><span class="MsoCommentReference"><span style="font-size: 9pt;" lang="EN-US"><!-- [if !supportAnnotations]--></span></span>.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US">Ring</span><span lang="EN-US"> sned Village is in Nyag rong County, Dkar mdzes Prefecture, Sichuan Province. The villagers speak a unique language, called Minyak, spoken by only 10,000 people in Dkar mdzes Prefecture. Nyag rong is an agricultural area where people grow wheat, potatoes, barley, green beans, and rape. People live among the steep, rocky mountains in in adobe and stone houses that are three to five stories tall. Forests abound on the mountain slopes. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US">The songs in this collection represent only a small part of the repertoire in Ring sned Village; interestingly, all songs are sung in the local Tibetan dialect rather than in the Minyak language. The song repertoire includes: praising songs, love songs, sending songs, gathering songs, weddings songs, working songs, lullabies, and dancing songs. Among these genres, the most endangered in this area are seeing off songs, praising songs, and love songs, and it is these that we present here. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"> </p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;" lang="EN-US">The sending song is sung at celebratory gatherings when guests are leaving, and the singer learnt it by listening to other singers at gatherings when he was young. This song expreses good wishes for the departed guests. The love song is sung by Orgyal chos grags, who learnt it from his father when he was approximately twelve years old. It says “Our fate is determined by actions in our last life”. The praising song was sung by A dkar who learnt it from his father while they were herding together.</span></p>

Such songs are a way for them to express emotions to each other; as open displays of affection are usually taboo in Tibetan villages. It is forbidden to sing such songs inside the house or in the presences of the singer&#8217;s relatives. Not surprisingly, many young people meet their future husband or wife this way. Love songs can be found throughout all Tibetan areas.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US">Love songs are generally taught between people of the same sex: father to son, mother to daughter, brother to brother, sister to sister, and between same-sex friends. When singing, the singer usually puts his/ her right hand on his/ her right cheek. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;" lang="EN-US">Love songs often rely heavily on metaphor, and make ample use of many other techniques of traditional Tibetan poetry.
