THE merry mice stay in their holes,
And hide themselves by day;
But when the house is still at night,
The rogues come out to play.
They climb upon the pantry shelf,
And taste of all they please;
They drink the milk that's set for cream,
And nibble bread and cheese.
But if they chance to hear the cat,
Their feast will soon be done;
They scamper off to hide themselves
As fast as they can run.
快乐的老鼠们躲在洞里，
大白天深居简出；
可到了夜深人静的时候，
就出来玩遍整座房屋。
它们爬上厨房的架子，
想吃啥就吃啥；
咬过了面包奶酪，连做黄油的牛奶，
也想来品尝一下。
可要是碰巧听见了猫儿，
盛宴就匆匆收场；
一只只忙不迭逃跑，
想要把小命隐藏。
