Abstract: Lawrence K. Wang 王抗曝, Ping-Chang Su 蘇平章, and Hung-ping Tsao 曹恆平 (2025). "Green Green Campus Trees"《青青校樹》", In: "Evolutionary Progress in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics", Lawrence K. Wang 王抗曝 and Hung-ping Tsao 曹恆平 (editors). Vol. 7, No. 5D, May 31, 2025, 19 pages; Lenox Institute Press, MA, USA; [email protected] ABSTRACT: This article introduces the lyrics of Qing Qing Xiao Shu (Green Green Campus Trees) and provides translations in Traditional Chinese and English. The song Qing Qing Xiao Shu (Green Green Campus Trees) is associated with the Japanese graduation song Aogeba Tōtoshi (仰げば尊し). Many Taiwanese graduation songs originate from Japanese melodies. For example, Auld Lang Syne has multiple Chinese adaptations. Likewise, the lyrics of Qing Qing Xiao Shu (the Chinese version of Aogeba Tōtoshi) have several variations, as different schools or universities may use different lyrics. The authors have made every effort to ensure that the translations are not only grammatically accurate but also poetically expressive, aiming to provide a meaningful reading experience. Additionally, the article briefly explains the background of the song, including its historical significance as a graduation tradition. The authors hope readers will enjoy the classic Taiwanese graduation song Qing Qing Xiao Shu, adapted from the Japanese song Aogeba Tōtoshi, with translations in Traditional Chinese and English, while incorporating some modifications made by the authors. This publication is part of an academic project by the classmates of Experimental Class 5 at the Affiliated Senior High School of National Taiwan Normal University (HSNU). These classmates studied together at HSNU from 1952 to 1958, and some have since passed away. To honor their past and present friendships, they are publishing their untold stories and poems, sharing the brotherhood that began in childhood (青梅竹馬) with the world. In this publication, the authors: (a) enjoy singing the old Taiwanese graduation song "Qing Qing Xiao Shu" (Green Green Campus Trees) together, (b) reminisce about their graduation from HSNU sixty-seven years ago, (c) discuss minor modifications to enhance the song, and (d) create an AI-assisted oil painting depicting the warm and joyful moments of their graduation day. 本文章介紹《青青校樹》這首歌的歌詞,並提供繁體中文及英文翻譯。《青青校樹》與日本畢業歌曲《仰げば尊し》有關,台灣許多畢業歌曲源自日本旋律。例如,《友誼地久天長》有多種中文版本。而《青青校樹》(《仰げば尊し》的中文版本)歌詞亦有不同變體,因為不同學校可能會使用不同的填詞。作者致力於確保翻譯不僅語法正確,更具詩意與美感,希望讀者能獲得富有意義的閱讀體驗。此外,文章簡要解釋這首歌的歷史背景與作為畢業傳統的意義。作者希望讀者能夠欣賞這首台灣經典畢業歌《青青校樹》,它改編自日本歌曲《仰げば尊し》,並附上繁體中文與英文翻譯,同時作者進行了修改。此出版作品為台灣師範大學附屬中學(HSNU) 實驗五班同學的學術計畫之一。這些同窗曾於1952至1958年在HSNU共同學習,如今部分人已離世。為了紀念他們的昔日與當前友誼,他們正在出版未曾述說的故事與詩作,並將自童年時代便開始的深厚情誼(青梅竹馬)分享給全世界。
