Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDFAGBAHIJKG| Ah these jasmines these white jasmines | A |
| I seem to remember the first day when I filled my hands with | B |
| these jasmines these white jasmines | A |
| I have loved the sunlight the sky and the green earth | C |
| I have heard the liquid murmur of the river thorough the | D |
| darkness of midnight | E |
| Autumn sunsets have come to me at the bend of a road in the | D |
| lonely waste like a bride raising her veil to accept her lover | F |
| Yet my memory is still sweet with the first white jasmines | A |
| that I held in my hands when I was a child | G |
| Many a glad day has come in my life and I have laughed with | B |
| merrymakers on festival nights | A |
| On grey mornings of rain I have crooned many an idle song | H |
| I have worn round my neck the evening wreath of bakulas woven | I |
| by the hand of love | J |
| Yet my heart is sweet with the memory of the first fresh | K |
| jasmines that filled my hands when I was a child | G |
