How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so blue?
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do!
Up in the air and over the wall,
Till I can see so wide,
River and trees and cattle and all
Over the Countryside--
Till I look down on the garden green,
Down on the roof so brown--
Up in the air I go flying again,
Up in the air and down!
你喜欢荡一趟秋千,
置身于蓝蓝的晴空吗?
啊,我认为这是小孩所能做到的
最愉快的玩耍!
越过墙外高踞天空,
知道我能望见如此广大的世界,
河流、树木、牛群,
还有整个的乡村--
直到我俯瞰着翠绿的花园
以及棕色的屋顶--
我又飞上天去,
在天地间上下穿梭!
