AtTheSeaside海邊byR.L.Stevenson(1)

WhenIwasdownbesidethesea

Awoodenspadetheygavetome

Todigthesandyshore.當(dāng)我到海邊時(shí)

他們給了我一把木鏟

好去挖掘沙灘。(2)

Theholeswereemptylikeacup

Ineveryholetheseacampup,

Tillitcouldcomenomore.挖成像杯狀般的空洞

讓每個(gè)洞中的海水涌現(xiàn)

直到它不能再涌現(xiàn)。WhatdoesLittleBirdieSay?byAlfredTennyson,1809-1892(1)

Whatdoeslittlebirdiesay,

Inhernestatpeepofday?

Letmefly,sayslittlebirdie,

Mother,letmeflyaway,

Birdie,restalittlelonger,

Tillthelittlewingsarestronger.

Sosherestsalittlelonger,

Thenshefliesaway.小鳥說些什么呢？

在這黎明初曉的小巢中？

小鳥說，讓我飛，

媽媽，讓我飛走吧。

寶貝，稍留久一會(huì)兒，

等到那對小翅膀再長硬些兒。

因此它又多留了一會(huì)兒，

然而它還是飛走了。(2)

Whatdoeslittlebabysay,

Inherbedatpeepofday?

Babysays,likelittlebirdie,

Letmeriseandflyaway.

Baby,sleepalittlelonger,

Tillthelittlelimbsarestronger.

Ifshesleepsalittlelonger,

Babytooshallflyaway.嬰兒說些什么，

在破曉時(shí)分的床上？

嬰兒像小鳥那樣說，

讓我起來飛走吧。

乖乖，稍微多睡一會(huì)兒，

等你的四肢再長硬點(diǎn)兒。

如果她再多睡一會(huì)兒，

嬰兒必然也會(huì)像鳥兒一樣地飛走。AHouseofCards紙牌堆成的房子byC.G.Rossetti(1)
