Yōu Yáo Lán
(Rocking the Cradle)
Traditional Chinese Nursery Rhyme
Music by Xu Hong Shuai

This Chinese Nursery Rhyme is set to a so-mi melody which is excellent for isolating the quarter rest

Yōu wa, yōu wa,
yōu dào nǎ lǐ lā?

Yōu wa, yōu wa,
yōu dào tiān shàng lā!

Rocking, rocking, where are you rocking to?
Rocking, rocking, rocking up to the sky?

悠搖籃
悠哇，悠哇，
悠到哪裡啦? 悠哇，
悠哇，悠到天上啦。
