One day in my house,
A mouse came to play,
Causing quite a stir,
In a mischievous way.

 

My sister Patricia,
Shared the news with a smile,
I caught a glimpse of its tail,
Oh, what a stylish style!

 

One day in my house,
A mouse caused a fuss,
My sister Patricia,
Shared the news with us.

 

Dad shouted from his chair,
“I’ll give a reward,
To the one who catches,
This intruder, adored!”

 

Oh, poor little mouse,
Where did you hide?
In this house unwelcome,
Seeking shelter inside.

 

Mom cried out in distress,
“Who will come to my aid?
This sneaky little creature,
Who must be dismayed!”

 

Oh, poor little mouse,
Where did you hide?
In this house unwelcome,
You cannot abide.

I don’t want to, Mom! –
Brush your teeth
I don’t want to, Mom! –
Brush your teeth
I don’t want to, Mom! –
If you don’t brush them, they’ll hurt.
Eat an apple
I’ll eat it tomorrow! –
Chew a carrot
Let Gloria chew it for me! –
Drink your milk
I’ll give it to Meche! –
Use your toothpaste
I don’t want to, enough!


Yum, yum, yum,
these teeth are delicious
Yum, yum, yum,
dirty and smelly
Yum, yum, yum,
here I will stay,
eat and rest.

 

Give me the toothbrush
I must clean
From top to bottom
the teeth without cease
Give me the toothbrush
I must clean
From top to bottom
the teeth without cease
I won’t forget to brush the molars
To exterminate these caries.


Yum, yum, yum,
these teeth are a hassle
Yum, yum, yum,
white and shiny
Yum, yum, yum,
I’ll go from here,
I’ll look for another child.

A yellow caterpillar
Lived beneath a mushroom
There in the middle of a branch
It had its hidden bed

 

It ate pieces of leaves
Basked in the sunlight on the treetops
It liked to climb up and watch
The little bugs that could fly


“Why can’t I be like them?”
It asked, looking up at the skies
“Why do I have to crawl?”
When all I want is to fly!

 

One day something strange happened
It felt its body swollen
It didn’t feel like going out
It just wanted to sleep

 

It wore a silk shirt
Hid inside a big fig tree
Slept throughout the winter
And woke up with wings

 

Now I can fly
Like that beautiful thrush
I am a butterfly
With my little wings, I’m off

Little Margarita is cheerful and playful,
Her polka dot dress starched with water.

 

She climbs up to my knee,
Tickling me so gleefully,
She climbs up to my knee,
Tickling me so gleefully,
Mischievous little Margarilla,

Mischievous little Margarilla.

 

Little Margarita is cheerful and playful,
Her polka dot dress starched with water.
She climbs up to my nose,
And I start to sneeze, oh, woes!
She climbs up to my nose,
And I start to sneeze, oh, woes!


Mischievous little Margariz,
Mischievous little Margariz.

Little Margarita is cheerful and playful,
Her polka dot dress starched with water.
She climbs up to my head,
I pretend not to see, instead,
She climbs up to my head,
I pretend not to see, instead,
Mischievous little Margareza,
Mischievous little Margareza.

 

Little Margarita is cheerful and playful,
Her polka dot dress starched with water.
She climbs up to my forehead,
And suddenly, she’s off ahead,
Mischievous little Margarente,
Mischievous little Margarente

Chinese traditional music instruments

Documents and archaeological artifacts from early Chinese civilization show a well-developed musical culture as early as the Zhou dynasty (1122 BC – 256 BC) that set the tone for the continual development of Chinese musicology in following dynasties.[1] These developed into a wide variety of forms through succeeding dynasties, producing the heritage that is part of the Chinese cultural landscape today. Traditional forms continued to evolve in the modern times, and over the course of the last centuries forms appropriated from the West have become widespread. Today’s Chinese music is both rooted in history and part of a global culture.
People of the Han ethnic group make up about 92% of the population of China. Han people’s music consists of heterophonic music, in which the musicians play versions of a single melodic line. Percussion accompanies most music, dance, talks, and opera. Han Folk Music had many aspects to it regarding its meaning, feelings, and tonality. This genre of music, in a sense, is similar to the Chinese language. This relationship is made by tones, sliding from higher tones to lower tones, or lower to higher tones, or a combination of both. These similarities mean that the instrument is a very important part in mastering technique with both left and right hands (left hand is used to create tonality on the string, right hand is for plucking or strumming the string), particularly for the classical (literati) tradition
