AIR MAIL
航空郵件

Every night when the clock strikes eight
每天晚上時(shí)鐘敲過(guò)8點(diǎn)
And the stars are out and it’s very late,
滿天星辰,天色已晚,
And the moon is dim in the western sky
西邊的月亮模糊黯淡
I watch to see the mail go by.
我看著從此經(jīng)過(guò)的郵航。
You can hear it whirring over the hill
太陽(yáng)落山、風(fēng)兒不聲不響
When the sun has set and the wind is still,
你可以聽(tīng)到它飛過(guò)山崗,
And if you are looking straight overhead
如果你直接抬頭看
You see its lights all green and red.
還可以看到它的紅綠燈亮閃閃。
And its motor plays a little tune
馬達(dá)把凱歌高唱
As a shadow swoops across the moon
一道暗影沖過(guò)月亮,
Just beneath the stars and across the sky,
就在星空下方
I watch the mail go roaring by.
轟隆隆飛過(guò)的就是郵航。
