"Releasing wild geese" is an important part of the sacrifice, Zhuang language should be translated as "releasing yan", in this stage, 魓 gong (male Tianqin artist) needs to call the birds to carry the message, heaven to invite God. Later, some artists adapted the tunes sung in the sacrificial session into songs played and sung on weekdays. As Tianqin gradually became known to the world, "Wild Geese" became one of the most famous pieces in Tianqin performances.

Soft and tender singing, and song and chant, accompanied by the crisp and graceful Tianqin, beautiful and moving, leisurely tells a love story of Hongyan. The kapok outside the window opens, it is another spring, the mountain blocks the meeting with the beloved, every day is bored waiting and expecting. The wild goose in the sky, don't fly so fast, you wait, take your heart to brother. Brother, you can still remember the acquaintance in the song, your song has long lived in my heart; Brother, you can still remember the love under the kapok tree, you said you want to be a tall and straight kapok tree, so that the beloved people rely on. Wild goose, please take away this endless yearning, bring back the news of brother.
