| The Colors of My Life |
| By Lisa Lee |
 |
 |
| Red, The passion of my life, Fiery and hot as fire. Golden, The glory of my life, Happy to share my prize. Green, The health of my life, Be evergreen, I try. White, Pink, blue and black, Red, golden and green, Weave the rainbow of my life, So splendid and so surprising. |
| White, The childhood of my life, Innocent and bright. Pink, The romance of my life, Dreamy and shy. Blue, The sorrow of my life, Sadness makes my cry. Black, The bad luck of my life, To beat it, I must fight. |

| A running stream, Happy and pure, Running, singing, Through the valleys, Through the rocks, Through the villages. Through the meadows, Forward, forward, Bravery, its spirit, Restlessnee, its maximum. |
| The Running Stream By Lisa Lee Contens |
 |
|
 |
 |
 |
| A running stream, Humble and common. Running, singing, Willing to dedicate itself entirely. Animals come to take a drink, Fishes are bubbling in the fresh water. Peasants pour the water into their fields, Shepherd boys jump into it. Swimming, laughing, Flushing up the joyful sprays. The running stream, Sharing the happiness with others. |
| A running stream, Full of vitality. Running, singing, Carrying its big dream. Running forward, Joining with its famous Brother-Yellow River. Rushing to the large family-ocean, To be one drop of the immense ocean, To learn new things in the enormous world. |
