What does little birdie say, 小些什呢？

In her nest at peep of day? 在黎明初的小巢中？

Let me fly, says little birdie, 小，我，

Mother, let me fly away, ，我走吧。

Birdie, rest a little longer, ，稍留久一，

Till the little wings are stronger. 等到那小翅膀再硬些。

So she rests a little longer, 因此又多留了一，

Then she flies away. 然而是走了。

What does little baby say, 些什，

In her bed at peep of day? 在破分的床上？

Baby says, like little birdie, 像小那，

Let me rise and fly away. 我起走吧。

Baby, sleep a little longer, 乖乖，稍微多睡一，

Till the little limbs are stronger. 等你的四肢再硬。

If she sleeps a little longer, 如果她再多睡一，

Baby too shall fly away. 必然也像一地走。
