Bed in Summer
——Robert Louis Stevenson

63'

In winter I get up at night
And dress by yellow candle-light
In summer, quite the other way,
I have to go to bed by day.
I have to go to bed and see
The birds still hopping on the tree,
To hear the grown-up people's feet
Still going past me in the street.
And does it seem hard to you,
When all the sky is clear and blue,
And I should like so much to play,
To have to go to bed by day?

冬日里我在夜里起床
借着昏黄的烛光穿衣服
夏日里大不一样
我不得不在白日里上床
我不得不上床 睡觉
看着小鸟们仍在树上活蹦乱跳
聆听大人的脚步声 依然在大街上来往穿梭 这时候你能进入梦乡？
天空是那么蔚蓝明亮
我多么想玩耍
大白天的怎么进入梦乡
