A special gift for 若曦
若曦
Falling asleep to rain on banana leaves
雨打芭蕉
Rain on the Banana Leaves
Lullaby
Slow and quiet, sung softly over a small arrangement - written to be played at bedtime.
Free to keep
OriginalTranslation
雨点落在芭蕉上Raindrops fall on the banana leaves一声一声都很轻Every one of them very light若曦你听那边响Ruoxi listen to that sound over there是夜里最好的声It is the best sound in the night风把叶子翻一面The wind turns a leaf over雨就换了个声音And the rain changes its voice屋里的灯早关了The lamp indoors went out long ago外面还下个不停Outside it is still falling睡吧睡吧小若曦Sleep sleep little Ruoxi雨会一直下到明The rain will fall until morning睡吧睡吧小若曦Sleep sleep little Ruoxi妈妈守着这盏灯Mama is keeping this lamp数一数第几声了Count and see which drop it is数着数着就不清Count on and you lose the number你的手慢慢松开Your hand loosens slowly雨还在外面轻轻And the rain is still soft outside睡吧睡吧小若曦Sleep sleep little Ruoxi雨会一直下到明The rain will fall until morning睡吧睡吧小若曦Sleep sleep little Ruoxi妈妈守着这盏灯Mama is keeping this lamp
Lullaby
Mandarin Chinese
The story behind this song
Rain taps steadily on the broad banana leaves outside, a sound gentle enough to carry her all the way to sleep.
Why this moment matters
Rain on broad leaves outside a window has a different, softer sound than rain on a roof, and it's exactly the kind of detail a lullaby is built to notice.
