Lyrics:
There are partridges swimming in the mountains in March, and the river water is flowing everywhere in April.
The tea picking girls go to the tea mountain, and the tea songs are flying up to the head of the white clouds.
The hare in the grass scurries across the slope, the painted eyebrow in the tree leaves its nest,
The carp in the center of the river jumps out of the water, wanting to listen to the sisters' tea-picking song.
The tea-picking sisters went up to the tea mountain, a layer of white clouds and a layer of sky,
The tea trees were planted by their own hands, and their hard work was rewarded with a garden full of tea.
Spring tea picking and tea buds, take advantage of the time to pinch fine tea.
The wind is blowing the fragrance of the tea trees for thousands of miles, overshadowing the jasmine flowers in the garden.
The tea-picking girls are always busy, picking tea in the morning and planting seedlings in the evening.
The tea-picking girls pick tea in the morning and plant seedlings in the evening with the moon.
Picking tea until the tea blossoms bloom, the mountains are covered in white,
The bees forget to go back to their nests, and the fairies listen to their songs and come down to the earth.
