There is a vine in front of the door,
阿门阿前一棵葡萄树,
ā  mén  ā  qián  yī  kē  pú  táo  shù,

The tree sprouted green shoots,
阿嫩阿嫩绿地刚发芽,                                                                                                                                                         
ā  nèn  ā  nèn  lǜ  de  gāng  fā  yá ,

The snail carries the heavy shell,
蜗牛背着那重重的壳呀,
wō  niú  bēi  zhe  nà  chóng  chóng  de  ke  ya, 
 
Step by step, climb the ladder,
一步一步地往上爬,
yī  bù  yī  bù  de  wǎng  shàng  pá,  

Two orioles on a tree,
阿树阿上两只黄鹂鸟,
ā  shù  ā  shàng  liǎng  zhǐ  huáng  lí  niǎo,
   
They were laughing at it,
阿嘻阿嘻哈哈在笑它,
ā  xī  ā  xī  hā  hā  zài  xiào  tā,
 
The grapes are still very early in ripening,
葡萄成熟还早得很呐，
pú  táo  chéng  shú  hái  zǎo  de  hěn  na，

What are you doing up here now?
现在上来干什么?
xiàn  zài  shàng  lái  gàn  shen  me?

Don't laugh，
阿黄阿黄鹂鸟不要笑，
ā  huáng  ā  huáng  lí  niǎo  bù  yào  xiào，  

It'll be ripe when I climb on it.
等我爬上它就成熟了。
děng  wǒ  pá  shàng  tā  jiù  chéng  shú  le。
