兰花草
（歌词根据胡适的诗歌《希望》改编）
Orchid Grass
（The lyrics are adapted from Hu Shi's poem Hope）
我从山中来 带着兰花草
种在小园中 希望花开早
I returned from the mountain
Bringing with me some orchids
I planted them in my small garden
Hoping they would very soon bloom
一日看三回 看得花时过
兰花却依然 苞也无一个
Three times a day I visited the grass
Till the flowering period was over
Yet there was no flower open
Not a single bud sprouted up
转眼秋天到 移兰入暖房
朝朝频顾惜 夜夜不相忘
Autumn came very soon
I moved the orchids into the hothouse
I looked after them a lot by day
Never forgetful of them at night
期待春花开 能将宿愿偿
满庭花簇簇 添得许多香
I expected the spring flowers to open
So as to fulfill my long-cherished wish
Flowers clustering all over the yard
A lot of fragrance would be added
