墙缝里的花呀，

Flower in the crannied wall,

我将你摘下：——

I pluck you out of the crannies,

连根带叶，握在我的手中，

I hold you here, root and all, in my hand,

小花呀——但假如我能弄懂

Little flower — but if I could understand

你的一切，连根带叶，

What you are, root and all, and all in all,

我就该懂得上帝和人。

I should know what God and man is.
