山茶花
你说他的家
开满山茶花
每当那春天三月
乡野如图画
村里姑娘
上山采茶
歌声荡漾山坡下
年十七 年纪十八
偷偷在说悄悄话
羞答答 羞答答
梦里总是梦见他
一朵花
他说你美丽
就像一朵花
他希望总有一天
把你摘回家
村里姑娘也会羡慕
羡慕你像一朵花
年十七 年纪十八
偷偷在说悄悄话
羞答答 羞答答
梦里总是梦见他
一朵花
但愿你美丽
能像一朵花
更希望有那一天
跟他转回家
村里姑娘出来欢迎
欢迎你这一朵花
年十七 年纪十八
偷偷在说悄悄话
羞答答 羞答答
梦里总是梦见他

Camellia
You said his house
was full of blooming camellia
Each Spring, in March
The countryside is like a painting
The village girls
Go up the mountain to pick tea
The sound of singing ripples down the hillside
Eighteen years of age in the year seventeen
Secretly whispering
Shyly, shyly
that you always see him in your dreams
A flower
He says you are beautiful
just like a flower
He hopes one day
he will take you home
The village girls will envy you
Envy you, beautiful like a flower
Eighteen years of age in the year seventeen
Secretly whispering
Shyly, shyly
that you always see him in your dreams
A flower
Wishing you were beautiful
just like a flower
Hoping one day
you will go home with him
The village girls will come out to welcome you
Welcome you, this beautiful flower
Eighteen years of age in the year seventeen
Secretly whispering
Shyly, shyly
that you always see him in your dreams
