Molihua

Composer: Traditional
Description: "Mo Li Hua" (Chinese: 茉莉花; pinyin: Mòlìhuā or Mòlihuā[1]; lit. 'Jasmine Flower',[a] also called Sinfa[8]) is a Chinese folk song of the "xiǎodiào" ("short tune") genre, from the Jiangnan region (south of the lower Yangtze river, around Suzhou, Shanghai and Hangzhou).[9][7][independent source needed] The song is usually dated to the 18th century reign of the Qianlong Emperor (Qing dynasty), though some argue it is Ming era (pre-1644).[10] Over time, many regional variations gained popularity in China and abroad.
