"What a pretty jasmine flower! What a pretty jasmine flower! Nice to see and nice to smell! Praiseworthy scent, and white as well!"
Have you ever heard of this famous song, Molihua (Jasmine Flower)? Molihua is a Chinese folk song from Jiangsu Province. The song was so well-known that the jasmine flower became the Province Flower of Jiangsu in 2007. It was one of the first Chinese folk songs to be liked by people outside China. The song describes a custom of giving jasmine flowers, popular in the south of Yangtze River Delta region.
As time goes by, Molihua is popular both in China and abroad. The song made its first appearance in the 18th century. It was created during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. In 1896, the song was used as a national anthem by the Qing Chinese officials in Europe. In 1982, the song found a place on a UNESCO list of recommended songs and was put into the musical textbooks in Asia. When Hong Kong and Macau came back to China in 1997 and 1999, this music was played in the ceremonies (典礼). In 2008, an adaptation(改编) by Tan Dun and Wang Hesheng was played during the medal ceremonies at the Beijing Olympic Games. In 2018, with Second Farewell to Cambridge by the famous Chinese poet Xu Zhimo, Molihua was sung in Chinese by the Choir(合唱团) of King's College in Cambridge University. In its 500-year history, no other Chinese songs have ever been recorded. On the evening of February 15, 2022, Wang Yaping played part of the popular music Molihua on Shenzhou-13 to celebrate the Lantern Festival.
The song expresses sincere and simple feelings of Chinese people. People describe the music as heart-touching. It is such a beautiful song that it almost stands for China abroad. This melody is a cultural gift from the Chinese people to the world. With music, friendship is our message around the world.
