"The Moon Represents My Hear" written by Weng Ching-hsi (music) and Sun-Yi (lyrics).

"The Moon Represents My Heart" (Chinese: 月亮代表我的心; pinyin: Yuèliang Dàibiǎo Wǒ de Xīn) is a song originally recorded by Taiwanese singer Chen Fen-lan for her album Dreamland, which was released through Li Ge Records in May 1973. It was then re-recorded by fellow Taiwanese recording artist Liu Guan-lin in November 1973. The song was eventually made famous throughout the Sinophone world by Taiwanese singer Teresa Teng in 1977.

Teng's recording of "The Moon Represents My Heart" was one of the first foreign songs to achieve widespread popularity in mainland China following the Cultural Revolution and the initiation of the Open Door Policy in 1978. It is often cited as one of the most famous and beloved Chinese songs of all time. During the 2010 Chinese Music Awards, it was ranked first amongst the greatest Chinese musical works of the past 30 years. The song has been covered by many artists around the world and has been featured in numerous films and television productions.

"The Moon Represents My Heart" was composed by Weng Ching-hsi (翁清溪) while its lyrics were written by Sun Yi [zh] (孫儀). During Weng's time at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, he would frequently find himself in the nearby parks, drawing creative inspiration from his surroundings. Whenever inspiration struck, he would record his thoughts and experiences. Upon his return to Taiwan, Weng chose one of his musical compositions and presented it to his friend, lyricist Sun Yi.
