SPRING

Spring, the sweet Spring, is the year's pleasant king;

春，甘美之春，一年之中的尧舜，

Then blooms each thing, then maids dance in a ring,

处处都有花树，都有女儿环舞，

Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing,

微寒但觉清和，佳禽争着唱歌，

Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!

啁啁，啾啾，哥哥，割麦、插一禾！

Boats Sail On The Rivers

Boats sail on the rivers, 小舟在河上航行，

And ships sail on the seas; 大船在海中操轮，

Are prettier far than these. 比这些更为悦人。

I am only a baby

I am only a baby

   As you can see;

I can say- Ha! Ha! Ha!

I know so did you,

    When you were a baby too.
