你喜欢观赏叶子，还是喜欢观赏花朵？就任由你选吧！兰花，就有那么好的能耐，任人喜欢观赏叶子还是花朵，它们都能任人精挑细选，各取所需，它们都能尽出浑身解数，大显其身手，大展其才华。

是孤芳自赏也罢！是大家共赏也罢！

多少种叶子，
多少种花朵，
纷呈着。

多少种姿态，
多少种颜色，
纷呈着。

在山中，在田野，在森林，它们自由自在地生长，繁荣，开花：有些被人们迁移了，迁移到了花园里，迁移到了人家的大客厅中，它们照样自由自在地生长，繁荣，开花，丝毫不受影响。所以，有多少人唱着：

我从山中来，
带来兰花草……

你喜欢观赏叶子，还是喜欢观赏花朵？那都是绒质的，绸质的，多么柔和，多么美好！

而且，也喜欢嗅闻它们的芳香吧！

The Orchid  Hsu ChiCheng

Do you like to appreciate the leaf or the flower? It up to you as you pleased. The orchid has the talent to let people to appreciate. They all promised to let people to handpick, take what they want, they all promised to let people to do what they can, gotta show what they’re all about, to show their talent.

May be self-appreciate own beauty and fragrance! May be appreciated by all!

As many as the leaves,
As many as the flowers,
Come thick and fast.

As many as the postures,
As many as the colours,
Come thick and fast.

In the mountain, in the country field, in the forest, they grow leisurely and carefree, flourishing, bloom: some moved by people to plant in the garden, to the parlour, they still grow and bloom leisurely and carefree, not have any influence on them. So, as many as the people to sing:

I come fro the mountain,
Carry the orchid…

Are you like to appreciate the leaf or the flower? They all are flannel-like, silk-like, how soft and how fine they are!

And, you may love to smell the sweet-scented!@*
