客语:
扬尾仔,飞过岗
姆妈介心,有芋六七行
崁脚下,水自流
芋荷撑凉,竹鸡仔畏羞

七月半,禾打扮
新芋刷签,姆妈恁善办
蓬莱米,磨出浆
料齐肉靓,虾米菣葱香

七月半,禾打扮
姆妈庆手,大灶蒸芋粄
厅下里,敬先祖
芋香桊鼻,好兄弟渡孤

扬尾仔,飞过岗
姆妈介心,望子归来尝
芋仔粄,贲年年
像石碛船,行稳又行远

华语:
蜻蜓,飞过岗
阿母的心,有芋六七行
崁脚下,水自流
芋荷撑凉,竹鸡害羞

七月半,禾打扮
阿母善办,新芋刷成签
蓬莱米,磨出浆
料齐肉靓,虾米爆葱香

七月半,禾打扮
阿母麻利,大灶蒸芋粄
祖厅里,敬先祖
芋香勾鼻,好兄弟渡孤

蜻蜓,飞过岗
阿母的心,望子归来尝
芋仔粄,厚年年
像石压船,行稳又行远

English:
Fireflies flying across the ridges
In the furrows of a mother's heart, there's six or seven rows of taro
Under the dikes the water flows
The taros enjoy the cool, and their leaves hide the partridges

In the middle of July the rice sprouts dress themselves up
Mother knows well how to shave the new taros into spears
The Penglai rice, milled and kneaded to a paste
Together with pork, shrimp, and onions fried for their fragrant taste

In the middle of July the rice sprouts put on their fancy clothes
Mother's steps are quick, taro dumplings are steaming on the earthen stove In the yard, pay respects to the ones who came before us
The taro's sweet smell links us, carrying back those who have crossed into the beyond

Fireflies flying to across the ridges
A mother's heart frets about whether her son will return to taste this
Sticky taro dumplings as thick as the years that pass
Heavy as a stone ballast, steadying the ship as it moves into the distance
