How to understand the word "refrain" here?

In a refrain now common in Beijing corridors of power, he praises the former Tennessee senator:"He is starightforward and sincere. And he knows Clinton very well."

How to understand the word "refrain" in this sentence? Can you please use English to explain it, or even better, use Chinese?

(as I'm trying to translate this sentence into Chinese)

Your help is much appreciated!
