Song for the Goose
（唐） 骆 宾 王
(Tang Dynasty) Luò Bīnwáng
鹅é，鹅é，鹅é，
曲qū项xiàng向xiàng天tiān歌gē。
白bái毛máo浮fú绿lǜ水shuǐ，
红hóng掌zhǎng拨bō清qīng波bō。
Goose, goose, goose,
She is singing towards the sky, with her beautiful neck bending in such lovely curve.
Her pure white feather coat floats on the Jade green water
Her red feet stir crystal wave on the lake surface.
“Look at that lovely white goose. She is singing towards the sky, with her long neck bending in such a beautiful curve. Floating on the jade green water, her pure white feather coat fascinates me. Her red feet stir crystal wave on the lake surface.”
As a mandarin Chinese beginner, please please please pay more attention to the tone of each word 👍😉, which sometimes can make a huge difference in the meaning or ideas you try to convey. I will talk about the SO VERY IMPORTANT 4 tones in another serie of videos soon.
Please also make sure to try to memorize the different AND VERY IMPORTANT Chinese measure words. This is probably as important and hard as learning English verb conjugation. So let's master the basics, and you are one step closer to finish your Chinese 101.
Last but not least, in this serie of mandarin Chinese educational videos, you might not find word for word subtitles or captions, but this is exactly how kids learn their mother tougue language. They listen and guess, then try to speak what they think they know, then they might be right, or get corrected and learn. This is how we all learn in the very beginning, right?
