蝸牛與黃鸝鳥

阿门阿前一棵葡萄树
阿嫩阿嫩绿的刚发芽
蜗牛背着那重重的壳呀
一步一步地往上爬

阿树阿上两只黄鹂鸟
阿嘻阿嘻哈哈在笑它
葡萄成熟还早的很哪
现在上来干什么

阿黄阿黄鹂儿不要笑
等我爬上它就成熟了

The Snail and the Oriole

Ah, in front of the gate, a vine, a vine,
Its lush green tendrils newly sprung.
A snail, its shell a weighty load,
Crawls slowly upward, rung by rung.

Ah, in the tree above, two orioles,
They mock the snail with laughter bold,
The grapes are far from ripe, they say,
Why climb now, pray tell me, pray.

Ah, little orioles, do not mock,
When I reach the top, the grapes will ripen.
