美國的音樂電影「真善美」裡，有一首教孩子唱歌的歌曲叫「Do Re Mi」。雖然有一點英文歌詞，但是不唱這段歌詞只唱後面的音符也很不錯。最近開始訓練兄弟倆的聽力及教他們如何視唱，我就先跳過英文歌詞的部份，和孩子們邊彈邊唱「Do Re Mi」。只要是會唱do re mi fa so la si do的家長，都可以輕鬆和寶貝們一起學唱這首「Do Re Mi」喔!
主旋律的英文歌詞)
Doe， a deer，a female dear，
Ray， a drop of golden sun，
Me，a name，I call myself，
Far，a long long way to run，
Sew，a needle pulling thread，
La，a note to follow sew，
Tea，a drink with jam and bread，
That will bring us back to Do (oh-oh)。
音符歌詞甲)
do mi mi，mi so so，
re fa fa，la si si，
音符歌詞乙)
so，do，la，fa，mi，do，re
so，do，la，si，do，re，do!
主旋律的音符歌詞丙)
do，re mi，do mi do mi
re，mi fa fa mi re fa，
mi，fa so，mi so mi so，
fa，so la la so fa la，
so，do re mi fa so la，
la，re mi fa so la si，
si，mi fa so la si do，
do si la fa si so do so do。
教學註解:
丙段的音符就是英文歌詞的音符，然後甲段和乙段不一定要照這個順序唱。可以甲段唱完唱丙段，或乙段唱完唱丙段。總之只有丙段最好是整段照順序唱完，這樣才能幫小朋友建立正確的視唱概念及訓練聽力。
全部的英文歌詞: Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with A-B-C
When you sing you begin with do-re-mi
Do-re-mi, do-re-mi
The first three notes just happen to be
Do-re-mi, do-re-mi
[Maria:]
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti
[spoken]
Let's see if I can make it easy
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do (oh-oh-oh)
[Maria and Children:]
[Repeat above verse twice]
[Maria:]
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do
So-do!
[Maria: (spoken)]
Now children, do-re-mi-fa-so and so on
are only the tools we use to build a song.
Once you have these notes in your heads,
you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up.
Like this.
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
[spoken]
Can you do that?
[Children:]
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
[Maria:]
So Do La Ti Do Re Do
[Children:]
So Do La Ti Do Re Do
[Maria:]
[spoken]
Now, put it all together.
[Maria and Children:]
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re, So Do La Ti Do Re Do
[Maria:]
[spoken]
Good!
[Brigitta:]
[spoken]
But it doesn't mean anything.
[Maria:]
[spoken]
So we put in words. One word for every note. Like this.
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
[spoken]
Together!
[Maria and Children:]
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do
Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do
Do Ti La So Fa Mi Re
[Children:]
Do Mi Mi
Mi So So
Re Fa Fa
La Ti Ti
[Repeat above verse 4x as Maria sings]
[Maria:]
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
[Maria and Children:]
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to
