小朋友 ( xiǎopéngyǒu )   ( ) 是否 ( shìfǒu ) ( yǒu ) 很多 ( hěnduō ) 問號 ( wènhào ) ?
Little child, do you have many question marks?
為什麼 ( wéishénmó ) 別人 ( biérén ) ( zài ) ( ) ( kàn ) 漫畫 ( mànhuà ) ?
Why are others over there reading comics?
( ) ( què ) ( zài ) ( xué ) 畫畫 ( huàhuà )   對著 ( duìzhù ) 鋼琴 ( gāngqín ) 說話 ( shuōhuà ) ?
While I am learning to draw and talking to the piano?
別人 ( biérén ) ( zài ) ( wán ) 遊戲 ( yóuxì )   ( ) ( què ) ( kào ) ( zài ) 牆壁 ( qiángbì ) ( bèi ) ( ) ( de )   A ( A ) B ( B ) C ( C )
Others are playing games while I lean against the wall reciting my ABCs
( ) ( shuō )   ( ) ( yào ) 一台 ( yìtái ) 大大 ( dàdà ) ( de ) 飛機 ( fēijī )
I said "I want a big airplane"
( dàn ) ( què ) 得到 ( dédào ) 一台 ( yìtái ) 舊舊 ( jiùjiù ) 錄音機 ( lùyīnjī )
But I got an old tape recorder instead
為什麼 ( wéishénmó ) ( yào ) ( tīng ) 媽媽 ( māmā ) ( de ) ( huà ) ?
"Why should I listen to mother's words?"
長大 ( chángdà ) ( hòu )   ( ) ( jiù ) ( huì ) 開始 ( kāishǐ ) ( dǒng ) ( le ) ( zhè ) ( duàn ) ( huà )
When you grow up, you will start to understand these words
長大 ( chángdà ) ( hòu )   ( ) 開始 ( kāishǐ ) 明白 ( míngbái )
After growing up, I began to understand
為什麼 ( wéishénmó ) ( ) ( pǎo ) ( ) ( ) 別人 ( biérén ) ( kuài )   ( fēi ) ( ) ( ) 別人 ( biérén ) ( gāo )
Why I run faster and fly higher than others
將來 ( jiānglái ) 大家 ( dàjiā ) ( kàn ) ( de ) 都是 ( dōushì ) ( ) ( huà ) ( de ) 漫畫 ( mànhuà )
In the future, everyone will be reading the comics I drew
大家 ( dàjiā ) ( chàng ) ( de ) 都是 ( dōushì ) ( ) ( xiě ) ( de ) ( )
Everyone will be singing the songs I wrote
媽媽 ( māmā ) ( de ) 辛苦 ( xīnkǔ )   ( ) ( ràng ) ( ) 看見 ( kànjiàn )
Mother's hardships are kept out of your sight
溫暖 ( wēnnuǎn ) ( de ) 食譜 ( shípǔ ) ( zài ) ( ) 心裡面 ( xīnlǐmiàn )
Warm recipes are kept inside her heart
有空 ( yǒukōng ) ( jiù ) 多多 ( duōduō ) 握握 ( wòwò ) ( ) ( de ) ( shǒu )
When you have time, hold her hand more often
( ) ( shǒu ) 牽著 ( qiānzhù ) 一起 ( yīqǐ ) 夢遊 ( mèngyóu )
Holding hands, let's wander through dreams together
( tīng ) 媽媽 ( māmā ) ( de ) ( huà )   ( bié ) ( ràng ) ( ) 受傷 ( shòushāng )
Listen to mother's words, don't let her get hurt
( xiǎng ) 快快 ( kuàikuài ) 長大 ( chángdà )   才能 ( cáinéng ) 保護 ( bǎohù ) ( )
Wanting to grow up quickly so I can protect her
美麗 ( měilí ) ( de ) 白髮 ( báifà )   幸福 ( xìngfú ) ( zhōng ) 發芽 ( fāyá )
Beautiful white hair budding amidst happiness
天使 ( tiānshǐ ) ( de ) 魔法 ( mófǎ )   溫暖 ( wēnnuǎn ) ( zhōng ) 慈祥 ( cíxiáng )
Angel's magic, kind and gentle amidst warmth
( zài ) ( ) ( de ) 未來 ( wèilái )   音樂 ( yīnlè ) ( shì ) ( ) ( de ) 王牌 ( wángpái )
In your future, music will be your trump card
( ) 王牌 ( wángpái ) ( tán ) ( ) 戀愛 ( liànài )   ( ài ) !  ( ) 不想 ( bùxiǎng ) ( ) ( ) 教壞 ( jiàohuài )
Use that trump card to fall in love, sigh, I don't want to teach you bad habits
還是 ( huánshì ) ( tīng ) 媽媽 ( māmā ) ( de ) ( huà ) ( ba )   晚點 ( wǎndiǎn ) ( zài ) 戀愛 ( liànài ) ( ba )
Just listen to your mother and fall in love later
( ) 知道 ( zhīdào ) ( ) 未來 ( wèilái ) ( de ) ( )   ( dàn ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( gèng ) 清楚 ( qīngchǔ )
I know your future path, but Mom knows it even better

" 用功 ( yònggōng ) 讀書 ( dúshū ) "  怎麼 ( zěnmó ) ( huì ) ( cóng ) ( ) 嘴巴 ( zuǐba ) 說出 ( shuōchū ) ?
"Study hard" — how did those words come out of my mouth?
