The first four sentences of the first half of the song focus on the "scenery of Wuding". "The ancient temple of Lion Rock is in the southwest, the waterfalls of the Shuicheng River are stunning, the secret realm of the Great Rift Valley is fascinating, and the heat wave of Jinsha Lake pushes the Yangtze River." These four famous mountains and rivers in Wuding and even the whole of Yunnan are like a picture scroll, slowly opening, showing with a thick and majestic momentum the majesty of the lion mountain, the first mountain in the southwest with a deep historical accumulation; the magnificent beauty of the Shuicheng River Waterfall, which is clear and sparkling; the steepness of the great rift valley of deep cliffs and broken axes, and the spirit of the Jinsha water of Jianghua Lake under the construction of the Wudongde Hydropower Station, the fourth largest hydropower project in China and the seventh largest hydropower project in the world. In particular, the sentence "The heat wave of Jinsha Lake pushes the Yangtze River" can be called the finishing touch of the first half of the song, which not only shows the beauty of the golden sands and waves, but also metaphorically refers to the gradual rise of Wuding, the land located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, in the new era journey and the great contribution of the Jinsha River to China and even the world. In the end, these dazzling landscapes of mountains and waters all return to the six popular lyrics: "This is a beautiful Wuding, picturesque place." This is a beautiful Wuding, desirable place. In this mysterious land, there are charming scenery shining everywhere. ”

The second half of the song focuses on "The Man of Wuding". "The girl's smiling face reflects the peony, the boy's wine song drunk the sun, the campfire that dances on the feet awakens the moon, and the hot pot of wild mushrooms is filled with aroma." There is a saying in Yunnan: "Luoyang Peony Jia Tianxia, Wuding Peony Sai Luoyang", Wuding Lion Mountain Peony planting history originates from the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Ming Jianwen in the "Battle of Jing" after the Escape of Lion Mountain as a monk personally planted a white peony, after more than 600 years of vicissitudes still blooming, and the flowers are as large as a plate, the more colorful the variety of peonies planted in Lion Mountain, creating a peony event held in Wuding as scheduled. In the song, the pun "the girl's smiling face reflects the red peony" not only shows the warm and cheerful character of the Wuding people, but also highlights the beauty of the Wuding peony, which is red and green, Wei Ziyao yellow. Wuding Yi wine song, this ancient and rough art form has a history of more than 700 years, oral transmission has been passed down to this day and has endured for a long time. It carries the social life, labor production, customs and habits of the Yi people in Wuding, and the norms of dealing with the world. In the song, "The boy's wine song drunk the sun" shows the open-mindedness and heroism of the Wuding people in an anthropomorphic way, and at the same time expresses the unique charm of the Wuding wine song that is full of wine aroma and hot as fire. The foot-falling dance is an indispensable entertainment dance for occasions such as the Wuding people begging for marriage and festivals, and every festive occasion people will step on the crisp bamboo flute and stomp their feet around the bonfire until the day and the moon fall. Every year from June to August of the lunar calendar, Wuding's alpine dense forests also breed a variety of wild mushrooms, and the Wuding people, who are familiar with the true meaning of food, perfectly match wild mushrooms from the mountains with strong chickens to create a unique mountain wild hot pot, which will constantly tap people's taste buds. Therefore, as the last sentence of the lyrics says, "In this rich land, happiness shines everywhere." ”
All in all, the song "Love This Place" presents people to the audience with magnificent lyrics, beautiful melodies, popular singing methods, and pleasant and intoxicating songs, and presents the majestic and ancient lion mountain, the idyllic and beautiful Water City River, the ghostly Rift Valley, the vast scenery of Jinsha Lake and the brilliant national cultural feast in front of the audience, composing a triumphant song of the times for the revitalization of Wuding's countryside.
