Crafted by composer Li Shaosheng, the esteemed music director of the Wuxi Symphony Orchestra, the stirring melody is brought to life by vocalists Liu Naiqi and Liu Tong, accompanied by the harmonious orchestration of the China National Symphony Orchestra and the Macao Youth Symphony Orchestra.

The white lotus, symbolizing purity and grace, holds a significant cultural importance as the emblematic flower of the Macao Special Administrative Region, further enhancing the emotional depth and resonance of this musical tribute to Macao's historical milestone.
