Two little kids went out to play
In their backyard one summer day.
They gazed at cotton candy sky,
And argued as the clouds sailed by.
"There goes a fluffy sheep!" Tim cried,
As Kimmy scrutinized the sky.
"I do not see a sheep," she said.
"I see a flock of birds, instead."
"How lovely are the birds!" said he.
"Look there's a swarm of bumble bees,
And there goes a train, a foot long!"
"Oh no brother, you are so wrong."
"Pesky Kimmy, don't be a pain,
'Cos you are driving me insane.
Go away and leave me alone
To just imagine on my own!"
"Okay then, I'll leave you alone,
But when you see a shape unknown,
Do not go screaming out to me,
'Cos I won't tell you what I see."
"Leave me alone and let me be,
I don't need you to play with me!"
Feeling lonely, she blurted out,
"If you need me just give a shout!"
中文翻译：
夏日的一天，两个小孩儿在他们的后院里玩耍。
他们盯着棉花糖一般的天空，
因为流云争吵着。
“绵羊过来了！”提姆喊道，
吉米仔细观察着天空。
“我没看见绵羊，”她说。
“但是，我看见了一群鸟。”
“多可爱的鸟啊！”他说。
“看，那有一群蜜蜂，
那还有一列火车，有一英尺长！”
“不，哥哥，你错了。”
“讨厌的吉米，你都快让我疯掉了。
走开，让我一个人呆着。
我要发挥我自己的想象！”
“那好吧，我会让你一个人呆着的。
但是当你看到你不认识的形状时，
别来冲我喊叫，
因为我不会告诉你我看到了什么。”
“走开，让我一个人呆会儿，
我不需要你和我玩！”
感到寂寞，她不假思索喊道，
“如果你需要我，就喊一声。”
