本曲的创作灵感完全来自四川民歌《槐花几时开》，是四川民歌中的经典之作，它实际上是宜宾地区的一首传统山歌，形成年代久远。 清光绪年间刻本《四川山歌》中就载有它的歌词。《槐花几时开》歌词虽只有短短的四句，但寥寥数语就把一个坠入爱河、伶俐而羞涩的农村姑娘形象，活脱脱地托现在我们眼前。 This song is completely inspired by the Sichuan folk song "When Will the Sophora Flowers Bloom", which is a classic among Sichuan folk songs. It is actually a traditional folk song in the Yibin area and has been formed for a long time. Its lyrics are contained in the engraving of "Sichuan Folk Songs" during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Although there are only four short lines in the lyrics of "When Will the Sophora Flowers Bloom", the image of a smart but shy rural girl who falls in love is vividly presented to us in just a few words.
