Cotton white as snow! 像雪花一般洁白!
Spin the cotton into thread; 把棉絮纺成丝线,

Wear it now, thou little child, 小朋友,把它穿上吧,
In thy happy home. 在你快乐的家里
Thou hast worn it well and long; 整天在身上的衣服
Are its uses past? 就是棉花最后的用途?
No; this well-worn cotton thing Is a book at last. 错了,这穿破了的东西还能让我们阅读,,
Sort and grind to
pulp2 the rags; 挑出破布,捣成纸浆,
Weave the paper fair; 再凝成白纸一张张,
Now it only waits for words 如今只等着文字,
To be printed there. 印上去散发着墨香
Words from God to man sent down 天地给人的启示,
May those pages show; 就在这书两上存在,
Sing well fare the cotton-tree! 一起来祝愿棉花树
Bravely may it grow! 长大吧,发出勇气的光彩
