好一朵美麗的茉莉花！
好一朵美麗的茉莉花！
芬芳美麗滿枝椏，
又白又香人人誇！

是誰？是誰唱的？多好聽的歌！
別以為茉莉花，花朵小小的，僻處一隅，沒什麼可取的，其實不然，她

天生麗質，
冰清玉潔，
香氣撲鼻，
潔白異常，
純美異常！

絕不渺小，一朵朵是一個個紮實的自我，一個個大千世界，一顆顆珍奇寶物！
絕不卑下，誰都不能看輕她！
光風霽月。
胸懷坦蕩。
她可以睥睨群花，雖然她不願意。
雖然她不願意，她可以和獅子的腳爪比銳利，可以和老虎的利牙較高低，可以和凱撒 大帝爭勝負，可以和西施賽美麗……。
啊，茉莉花呀茉莉花！

The Jasmine   Hsu ChiCheng

What a beautiful jasmine flower
What a beautiful jasmine flower
Sweet-smelling, beautiful, stems full of buds
Fragrant and white, everyone praises

Who? Who sings? What a fine song pleasant to hear!
Don’t deem the jasmine so small, remotes in a corner, it’s nothing matters to take a look at, in fact, it’s not the case, she is

A born beauty
Pure like jade and clear like ice
Sweet smell assails the nostrils
Pure white extremely
Pure beauty extremely

Not insignificant absolutely, one after one is one and one of sturdy self, one after one of Buddhist cosmology, one after one of precious treasure!
Not despicable absolutely, no one can despise her!
It’s light breeze and clear moon.
It’s pen and candid.
She can despise all the flowers though she may not desire.
Though she may not desire, she can compare to the sharp of lion’s paw, and compare to the sharp teeth of tiger, contend for Caesar, contest the beauty to Hsi Shih…
Oh, jasmine, oh, jasmine! @
