大地回春 [Dà dì huí chūn] [English translation]

Welcome spring back to earth.

The flowers on branches are like brocades.

The layers of grass at fields are like cushions.

Swallows are returned to find their old nests,

in pairs they twitter with passions.

Everything on earth is renewed.

Butterflies dance light and gracefully.

Buzzing bees collect pollens.

Lovers ramble in warm breeze.

The colors of spring excite our feelings.

Peach and plum trees compete their blooms,

red and white contrast each others.

Their delicate fragrance fills the dike at waterfront.

Spring is back to earth,

dark willows, bright flowers,

turquoise water, green mountains,

birds singing non-stop.

Everything on earth is new. Hey!

Welcome spring back to earth.

Butterflies dance light and gracefully.

Buzzing bees collect pollens.

Lovers ramble in warm breeze.

The colors of spring excite our feelings.

Peach and plum trees compete their blooms,

red and white contrast each others.

Their delicate fragrance fills the dike at waterfront.

Spring is back to earth,

dark willows, bright flowers,

turquoise water, green mountains,

birds singing non-stop.

Everything on earth is new. Hey!

Welcome spring back to earth.

Butterflies dance light and gracefully.

Buzzing bees collect pollens.

Lovers ramble in warm breeze.

The colors of spring excite our feelings.
