S.H.E. 中國話 歌詞英譯

S.H.E. Chinese (Lyrics, English translation)

Shoulder pole wide, bench long

Shoulder pole wants to be tied to bench

Shoulder pole wide, bench long

Shoulder pole wants to be tied to bench

London Maryan bought a  cheongsam to her Mom

Moskow ovski becomes attached to Gnocchi

Various colors of skin, various colors of hair
mumbling, muttering and start to speak Chinese

Took us so many years to practice English pronouciation and grammar

Now it's their turn to twist their tongues for the four tunes

平平仄仄平平仄 (仄仄平平仄仄平)
How smart are the Chinese, how beautiful is Chinese

 

Shoulder pole wide, bench long

Shoulder pole wants to be tied to bench

Bench won't let shoulder pole to be tied to bench

Shoulder pole insists  to be tied to bench

Bench just won't let shoulder pole to be tied to bench

Shoulder pole wider, or bench longer

Big Bro Little Bro sit in front of the hill

Up the hill sits a goose

Downt the hill floats a river

Big Bro says wide wide river

Little Bro says white white goose

The goose wants to cross the river  and the river wants to ferry the goose across

Not sure it's the goose crossing river

or the river ferries the goose across

The whole world is learning Chinese

Confucius' words becomes internationalized

The whole world is speaking Chinese

What we are saying, now the whole world is seriously listening

New York Susana opened a Zen Lounge Bar

Berlin Wolfgan used Chinese instruments to accompany his electric guitar

Various colors of skin, various colors of hair
mumbling, muttering and start to speak Chinese

Took us so many years to practice English pronouciation and grammar

Now it's their turn to twist their tongues for the four tunes

平平仄仄平平仄 (仄仄平平仄仄平)
How smart are the Chinese, how beautiful is Chinese

 

There was a boy named Xiaodu

went buying vinegar and cloth

he bought cloth he got vinegar

turned around seeing a eagle snatched a rabbit

he put down cloth he put down vinegar

jumped for the eagle and the rabbit

Away flew the eagle and away fled the rabbit

Spilled the vinegar and wet the cloth

the mouth blamed the legs and the legs blamed the mouth

the mouth blamed the legs like to run away

the legs blamed the mouth to sell away
Blah the mouth and not move the legs

or move the legs but not blah the mouth

Why could one not grow the legs and the mouth

What is it? the mouth blamed the legs or the legs blamed the mouth

The whole world is learning Chinese

Confucius' words becomes internationalized

The whole world is speaking Chinese

What we are saying, now the whole world is seriously listening

The whole world is learning Chinese

Confucius' words becomes internationalized

The whole world is speaking Chinese

What we are saying, now the whole world is seriously listening

S.H.E. 中國話

扁擔寬 板凳長
扁擔想綁在板凳上
扁擔寬 板凳長
扁擔想綁在板凳上
倫敦瑪莉蓮 買了件旗袍送媽媽
莫斯科的夫司基 愛上牛肉麵疙瘩
各種顏色的皮膚 各種顏色的頭發
嘴裏念的說的開始流行中國話
多少年我們苦練英文發音和文法
這幾年換他們卷著舌頭學平上去入的變化
平平仄仄平平仄 (仄仄平平仄仄平)
好聰明的中國人 好優美的中國話
扁擔寬 板凳長
扁擔想綁在板凳上
板凳不讓扁擔綁在板凳上
扁擔偏要綁在板凳上
板凳偏偏不讓扁擔綁在那板凳上
到底扁擔寬還是板凳長
哥哥弟弟坡前坐
坡上臥著一隻鵝
坡下流著一條河
哥哥說 寬寬的河
弟弟說 白白的鵝
鵝要過河 河要渡鵝
不知是那鵝過河
還是河渡鵝
全世界都在學中國話
孔夫子的話 越來越國際化
全世界都在講中國話
我們說的話 讓世界都認真聽話
紐約蘇珊娜 開了間禪風Lounge Bar
柏林來的沃夫岡 拿胡琴配著電吉他
各種顏色的皮膚 各種顏色的頭發
嘴裏念的說的開始流行中國話
多少年我們苦練英文發音和文法
這幾年換他們卷著舌頭學平上去入的變化
平平仄仄平平仄 (仄仄平平仄仄平)
好聰明的中國人 好優美的中國話
有個小孩叫小杜
上街打醋又買布
買了布 打了醋
回頭看見鷹抓兔
放下布 擱下醋
上前去追鷹和兔
飛了鷹 跑了兔
灑了醋 濕了布
嘴說腿 腿說嘴
嘴說腿 愛跑腿
腿說嘴 愛賣嘴
光動嘴 不動腿
光動腿 不動嘴
不如不長腿和嘴
到底是那嘴說腿 還是腿說嘴
全世界都在學中國話
孔夫子的話 越來越國際化
全世界都在講中國話
我們說的話 讓世界都認真聽話
全世界都在學中國話
孔夫子的話 越來越國際化
全世界都在講中國話
我們說的話 讓世界都認真聽話
