The Chinese version 

The original version
                                           Which version do u prefer???                                         
             Obviously, it is an adaption of the original version. However, the message of the song is quite similar( love , peaceful and patriotic) and the music is the same. 

                                       
      Maybe it's time to sing a song!              
 Let's start at the very beginning 讓我們從頭開始
A very good place to start 選一個很棒的起點
When you read you begin with A-B-C 唸書的時候你從ABC開始學
When you sing you begin with do-re-mi 唱歌的時候從「哆-雷-咪」開始教

Do-re-mi, do-re-mi 「哆-雷-咪」 「哆-雷-咪」
The first three notes just happen to be 恰恰好剛開始的三個音符是
Do-re-mi, do-re-mi 「哆-雷-咪」 「哆-雷-咪」

Maria:
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti
Oh, let's see if I can make it easier 讓我看看是否可以把它弄簡單一點

Doe, a deer, a female deer 「Doe」是「鹿」，一隻小母鹿
Ray, a drop of golden sun　「Ray」是一束金色陽光
Me, a name I call myself　　「Me」是「我」的自稱
Far, a long, long way to run　「Far」是很遠很遠的長路
Sew, a needle pulling thread　「Sew」是針穿過細線縫衣服
La, a note to follow Sew　　　「La」是「Sew」的下一個音
Tea, a drink with jam and bread　「Tea」是果醬麵包配茶喝
That will bring us back to Do －oh-oh-oh　這樣我們又回到「Doe」－哦哦哦

I can't find the Chinese version . One of the reason is that it is difficult to have adaption.I also believe that the features of this songs are easy to sing and many rhymes, such as sun and run, thread and bread. These features are difficult to create in any other version.IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DISPLACE CLASSICS.
