茉莉花 /江苏

　　Jasmine /folk song of Jiangsu

好一朵茉莉花

好一朵茉莉花

满园花草

香也香不过它

我有心采一朵戴

又怕看花的人儿要将我骂

好一朵茉莉花

好一朵茉莉花

茉莉花开

雪也白不过它

我有心采一朵戴

又怕旁人笑话

好一朵茉莉花

好一朵茉莉花

满园花开

比也比不过它

我有心采一朵戴

What a jasmine!

What a jasmine!

All other Grasses and flowers in the garden

Are less fragrant than it

I want to pick one to wear

But fear the watcher will scold me

What a jasmine!

What a jasmine!

When it is in blossom

The snow can not be whiter than it

I want to pick one to wear

But fear others sneering

What a jasmine!

What a jasmine!

All other flowers in the garden

can't compare with it

I want to pick one to wear
