Big nuts looking down at me  

From way up the coconut tree 

But in my hand two dragon’s eyes  

Come on whack it to blue skies

2nd time 

Big nuts looking down at she 

From way up the yē zī (coconut) tree 

But in my hand two lóng yǎn (longan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longan)

Sucking on liú lián (dorian http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian)

Study in sānyà University

landscaped by tropical fruit trees  

But something more important here   

Just listen on my lovely deer    

V2

lìzhī (lychee) here, lóng yǎn stares

Follow deer she’ll lead us there

The mountain is draped in mángguǒ (mango) trees   

Early morning we’ll go see

Through mùguā (papaya) and xiāng jiāo (banana) leaves

to the cave’s back door we will creep

n watch ancient Chinese study

Zhōng guó huà 中国画 (Chinese painting), liàn xí 练习 (study)

Bridge  

A tiny apple smacked Newton’s head 

Thus gravity was invented

If a big nut green cracks my bean

I may reach Confucian dreams
