Miao flying songs, called "HXakYangt" in Miao language, are a type of Miao songs, popular in Taijiang, Jianhe, Kaili and other areas of Guizhou. The tones of flying songs are high and loud, bold and lively, and the sound resounds through the valleys when they are sung, which is highly appealing. Flying songs are often used in public occasions such as celebrations and welcoming farewells. They are improvised and sung on the spot. The lyrics are mainly about praise, thanks and encouragement. Flying songs are usually sung during festivals and celebrations such as the Miao New Year and dragon boat racing. The lyrics of flying songs are generally about 30 sentences each. In a song, there are often three-character sentences, five-character sentences, seven-character sentences, eight-character sentences, etc., but most of them are five-character sentences. The melody has a roughly fixed score, and the length and speed of the beats have a roughly fixed format, but sometimes it can be developed on the original basis. In a song, the beginning is slow. The first sentence is fast at first and then slow, and the lingering sound gradually becomes higher and longer. The second sentence is fast at first and then slow, but the lingering sound gradually becomes lower and longer. From the third or fourth sentence, it starts to be sung at a medium speed, gradually speeding up, and when it comes to the main part, it is sung at a fast speed. After the climax is finished, a small part is sung with a gradually slow and lingering sound, which means it is approaching the end. When singing the last one or two sentences, the lingering sound gradually becomes lower and longer. The first one or two sentences of the flying song, the few sentences before the climax in the middle, and the last one or two sentences generally have lingering sounds. The singer can sing as much as he wants, and the length of the lingering sound depends on the length of the singer's breath. There are three types of flying song tunes: Guading, Kaitang, and Wanshui.
