Bed in Summer

　　--Robert Louis Stevenson

　　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,

　　Or 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?

　　夏之眠 　

　　冬日里我夜里起床，

　　借着昏黄的烛光穿衣裳。

　　夏日里可不一样，

　　我不得不白日里就睡觉上床。

　　小鸟儿仍在树上蹦蹦跳跳，

　　大人们的脚步声

　　还在大街上回响，

　　我却得早早睡觉上床。

　　天空还是那么蔚蓝，明亮，

　　我多么想嬉戏，玩耍，

　　你是否觉得

　　这时候就睡觉难入梦乡？
