| MOTHER, the folk who live up in the clouds call out to me-- | 妈妈，住在云端的人对我唤道——“我们从醒的时候游戏到白日终止。 |
| "We play from the time we wake till the day ends. | “我们与黄金色的曙光游戏，我们与银白色的月亮游戏。” |
| We play with the golden dawn, we play with the silver moon. | 我问道：“但是，我怎么能够上你那里去呢？” |
| I ask, "But, how am I to get up to you?" They answer, "Come to the edge of the earth, lift up your hands to the sky, and you will be taken up into the clouds." | 他们答道：“你到地球的边上来，举手向天，就可以被接到云端里来了。” |
| "My mother is waiting for me at home," I say. "How can I leave her and come?" | “我妈妈在家里等我呢，”我说，“我怎么能离开她而来呢？” |
| Then they smile and float away. | 于是他们微笑着浮游而去。 |
| But I know a nicer game than that, mother. | 但是我知道一件比这个更好的游戏，妈妈。 |
| I shall be the cloud and you the moon. | 我做云，你做月亮。 |
| I shall cover you with both my hands, and our house-top will be the blue sky. | 我用两只手遮盖你，我们的屋顶就是青碧的天空。 |
| The folk who live in the waves call out to me-- | 住在波浪上的人对我唤道—— “我们从早晨唱歌到晚上；我们前进又前进地旅行，也不知我们所经过的是什么地方。” |
| "We sing from morning till night; on and on we travel and know not where we pass." | 我问道：“但是，我怎么能加入你们队伍里去呢？” |
| I ask, "But, how am I to join you?" They tell me, "Come to the edge of the shore and stand with your eyes tight shut, and you will be carried out upon the waves." | 他们告诉我说：“来到岸旁，站在那里，紧闭你的两眼，你就被带到波浪上来了。” |
| I say, "My mother always wants me at home in the evening--how can I leave her and go?" | 我说：“傍晚的时候，我妈妈常要我在家里——我怎么能离开她而去呢！” |
| Then they smile, dance and pass by. | 于是他们微笑着，跳舞着奔流过去。 |
| But I know a better game than that. | 但是我知道一件比这个更好的游戏。 |
| I will be the waves and you will be a strange shore. | 我是波浪，你是陌生的岸。 |
| I shall roll on and on and on, and break upon your lap with laughter. | 我奔流而进，进，进，笑哈哈地撞碎在你的膝上。 |
| And no one in the world will know where we both are. | 世界上就没有一个人会知道我们俩在什么地方。 |
