I also attached here the Video and English Translation of the poem I used.

1. Mandarin Chinese Version:

 

【原诗】	【英文版】
再别康桥	Saying Good-bye to Cambridge Again
作者：徐志摩	By Xu Zhimo
轻轻的我走了，	Very quietly I take my leave
正如我轻轻的来；	As quietly as I came here;
我轻轻的招手，	Quietly I wave good-bye
作别西天的云彩。	To the rosy clouds in the western sky.
那河畔的金柳，	The golden willows by the riverside
是夕阳中的新娘；	Are young brides in the setting sun;
波光里的艳影，	Their reflections on the shimmering waves
在我的心头荡漾。	Always linger in the depth of my heart.
软泥上的青荇，	The floating heart growing in the sludge
油油的在水底招摇；	Sways leisurely under the water;
在康河的柔波里，	In the gentle waves of Cambridge
我甘心做一条水草！	I would be a water plant!
那榆荫下的一潭，	That pool under the shade of elm trees
不是清泉，是天上虹；	Holds not water but the rainbow from the sky;
揉碎在浮藻间，	Shattered to pieces among the duckweeds
沉淀着彩虹似的梦。	Is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream.
寻梦？撑一支长蒿，	To seek a dream? Just to pole a boat upstream
向青草更青处漫溯；	To where the green grass is more verdant;
满载一船星辉，	Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight
在星辉斑斓里放歌。	And sing aloud in the splendor of starlight.
但我不能放歌，	But I cannot sing aloud
悄悄是别离的笙箫；	Quietness is my farewell music;
夏虫也为我沉默，	Even summer insects heap silence for me
沉默是今晚的康桥！	Silent is Cambridge tonight!
悄悄的我走了，	Very quietly I take my leave
正如我悄悄的来；	As quietly as I came here;
我挥一挥衣袖，	Gently I flick my sleeves
不带走一片云彩。	Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away
