ALICE'S SUPPER.
愛麗絲的晚餐
Far down in the valley the wheat grows deep,
山谷深處，小麥成熟了。
And the reapers are making the cradles sweep;
農民們正在收割糧食。
And this is the song that I hear them sing,
當愉快而響亮的聲音想起時，
While cheery and loud their voices ring:
我聽到他們唱著這首歌曲：
"'Tis the finest wheat that ever did grow!
這是我們種過的最優質的小麥！
And it is for Alice's supper--ho! ho!"
我們用它作為愛麗絲的晚餐！嘿嘿！”
far down by the river the old mill stands,
遙遠的河邊，有一座磨坊，
And the miller is rubbing his dusty hands;
磨坊主正轉動布滿塵土的齒輪。
And these are the words of the miller's lay,
當他看到磨石轉動的時候，
As he watches the millstones grinding away:
磨坊主說出了這樣的話：
This the finest flour that money can buy,
“這是用錢可以買到的最優質的面粉，
And it is for Alice's supper--hi! hi!"
我們用它作為愛麗絲的晚餐！嘿嘿！”
Downstairs in the kitchen the fire doth glow,
樓下的廚房，生起了火，
And cook is a-kneading the soft, white dough;
廚師正把面粉揉成雪白柔軟的面團。
And this is the song she is singing to-day,
當她快樂而忙碌地工作時，
As merry and busy she's working away:
今天她唱出了這樣的歌：
"'Tis the finest dough, whether near or afar,
“這是世界上最好吃的布丁，
And it is for Alice's supper--ha! ha!"
我們用它作為愛麗絲的晚餐！嘿嘿！”
To the nursery now comes mother, at last,
現在媽媽來到了幼兒園，
And what in her hand is she bringing so fast?
她手上端著的是什么？
'Tis a plateful of something, all yellow and white,
這盤東西白黃相間，
And she sings as she comes, with her smile so bright:
進來時，她滿臉微笑地唱道：
"'Tis the best bread and butter I ever did see,
“這是我見過的最棒的面包，
And it is for Alice's supper--he! he!"
用作愛麗絲的晚餐！嘿嘿！”
