第9课

阳春三月

在大雪和寒风里，

在严酷的雨丝里，

在我们的脚下，

小小的花儿开始成长。

春天的脚步越来越近，

她满怀喜悦地说：

“亲爱的，你们在这儿吗？”

他们回答：

“我们就要做好准备了，亲爱的。”

“飘雪的冬天又在哪儿呢？

告诉我们，春天。”他们说。

她回答说：“他要走了，

他就要上路了。”

“可怜的老冬天不爱你，

但他横行的日子已成为过去；

很快我的鸟会在你上面歌唱，

让你最终获得自由。”

（玛丽·M·道奇）

经典原文

MARCH

In the snowing and the blowing,

In the cruel sleet,

Little flowers begin their growing

Far beneath our feet.

Softly taps the Spring, and cheerly, —

“ Darlings, are you here?”

Till they answer, “We are nearly,

Nearly ready, dear.”

“ Where is Winter, with his snowing?

Tell us, Spring.”they say.

Then she answers, “He is going,

Going on his way.

“ Poor old Winter does not love you;

But his time is past;

Soon my birds shall sing above you; —

Set you free at last.”
