BED IN SUMMERIn winter I get up at nightAnd dress by yellow candlelight.In summer, quite the other way,I have to go to bed by day.I have to go to bed and seeThe birds still hopping on the tree,Or hear the grown-up people′s feetStill going past me in the street.And does it not 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?夏天在床上冬天天没亮我就要起床，在昏黄的烛光下穿衣裳。如今夏天变了样，天没黑我就得上床。我不得不上床，眼睁睁看鸟儿还在枝头雀跃，听着大人们的脚步声，依然在街道上回响。这真令人难过，外面的天空这么晴朗，明亮，我真想再玩一会儿，可天没黑我却要上床？A THOUGHTIt is very nice to thinkThe world is full of meat and drinkWith little children saying graceIn every Christian kind of place.奇想这种想法有多美妙，世界上到处是肉饼和琼浆，在每个有基督徒的地方，孩子们饭前都这样祈祷。
