Out-of-Doors
户外
Sometimes, when in the house I stay,
有时候,当我待在房子里的时候,
Another house comes in my mind.
另一所房子在我的脑海中浮现。
Its walls are hills far, far away;
它的墙是很远、很远以外的群山;
The high-up roof with sky is lined;
高高的房顶与天空相连;
The grass is carpet on the floors,
青草是地毯,
Of this big house of out-of-doors.
铺在户外这所大房子的地上。
For curtains there are leafy trees;
茂密的树木做窗帘;
For lights there are the moon and sun;
月亮和太阳是灯盏;
One cannot ever lose the keys,
钥匙从来都不会丢失,
For it is home to everyone.
因为它是每个人的家园。
The front door's always open wide,
对于户外的一切而言,
To this big house of all-outside.
这所大房子的前门永远不关。
