Mo Li Hua (Melody/Lyrics/Voice)



This is the melody and lyrics in Chinese and Hanyu Pinyi.  


Singer of the song is telling a jasmine flower how beautiful it is and asks if it can be plucked so its beauty can be shared. The song estimated to be 300 or so years old. The voice is usually in a soprano range. As for the melody in its self is arioso, an air like melody. This is because the folksong is a “cradle song” or a lullaby.
