二、普洱茶茶舞
茶歌存在的形式不是单一的，通常可以结合茶舞和茶灯等形式产生和呈现。由于所处地区不同，茶舞也存在一些差异，茶舞表演中很多动作都以茶叶生产为基础，在茶歌基础上进行舞蹈创作。
采茶歌在民间灯彩及其他艺术形式的影响下，进一步发展成以茶事为内容，运用纸扇、纸扎茶篮等作道具，边唱边舞的采茶灯，又叫“茶灯”或“茶篮灯”。当时，在盛产普洱茶的云南地区，茶农为了接待各地茶客，常用采茶灯的形式即兴演出以茶为内容的歌舞。
At the beginning of the song, four lyrics point out the production way and aging characteristics of Pu’er tea.The colloquial expression makes the folk song acceptable to people.Percussion music and flute similar to chime makes the beginning lingering.The iconic phrases“Camellia”,“red soil”,“Lancang River”and“Yunnan”outline the colorful origin of Pu’er tea,and instantly seem to take us back to the ancient tea horse road featured with mighty caravans, rice wine and work songs.
(II)Song“Pu’er Tea Song”
Lyrics and notes in Pu’er tea song describe people’s recognition and understanding about Pu’er tea and diversified culture.The artistic connotation and features help people better recognize and understand national culture and regional culture in Pu’er area.The tea song reflects people’s desires for production, love and a happy life, just as those in“Pu’er Tea Song”by Wu Zhongyu:
There is amazing Pu’er tea in Yunnan.
The agreeable climate and ecology makes Pu’er tea more precious as the antique as time passes,
And Pu’er tea is the natural produce of the nature.
The tender shoot and green sprout makes amazing Pu’er tea.
The mellow taste and rich nutrients make the tea good for long keeping,
And it is a nice myth.
There is amazing Pu’er tea in Yunnan.
New and old Pu’er tea is well-known in the world,
And it is the honor of China.
By praising nature, the song praises the buds, leaves, soup color and taste of Pu’er tea, setting off the drinking culture of new and old tea.
