Tàiyáng dāng kōng zhào
太阳 当 空 照
The sun is shining in the sky.

Huāer duì wǒ xiào
花儿 对 我 笑
The flowers are smiling at me.

Xiǎo niǎo shuō zǎo zǎo zǎo
小 鸟 说 早 早 早
Birds are saying: “Morning! Morning! Morning!”

Nǐ wéi shí me bèi shàng xiǎo shūbāo
你 为 什 么 背 上 小 书包
Why are you carrying a little school bag?

Wǒ qù shàng xuéxiào
我 去 上 学校
I am going to school.

Tiān tiān bú chídào

And I’m not late for it every day.

Ài xuéxí ài láodòng
爱 学习 爱 劳动
I love studying and working hard.

Zhǎngdà yào wéi rénmín lì gōngláo
长大 要 为 人民 立 功劳
And I’m determined to make contributions to the people when I grow up.
