园丁播种呕心培，
Gardeners spare no effort to sow seeds
甘为华夏育栋材。
Willing to cultivate pillars of society for Cathay
粉笔描绘宏伟梦，
Depicting the magnificent dream in chalk
春蚕丝尽蜡成灰。
Silkworms spit out all silk and candles burn to ashes
2·
秉烛秋冬岁月催，
By candlelight they work hard year after year
春风化雨育新材。
Spring breezes blow rain to nourish new seedlings
爱生勤教蓝图绘，
Teachers diligently instruct pupils to draw a blueprint
一片丹心李桃栽。
Planting peaches and plums with a heart of pure loyalty
3·
不图功名利国华，
Not caring for fame and fortune but for the country’s talents
精心护幼育新芽。
Teachers protect kids carefully like cultivating new buds
霜添两鬓终无悔，
They’re not regretful even if their hair is greying at the sides
落叶成泥更护花。
More beneficial to flowers when fallen leaves turn into mud
