23, 天佮地---臺英雙語童詩

[李秀]

天佮地
一片清氣藍白分明的天
嘛是一幅有夠精彩的圖

阿媽的白頭毛
阿公的薰嘴仔
阿姐芭蕾舞的嫷衫
小弟噗噗跳的木馬
攏總懸懸掛佇天頂遐

天色漸漸暗落來啦
阿媽的白頭毛套散落來矣
阿公的薰嘴仔騰出團團的圓圈仔
阿姐躡直跤尾舞來舞去攏舞袂煞
小弟木馬騎著一直若噗噗跳
有夠鬧熱的天頂面

日頭落山! 月娘出來!
阿媽的包仔頭捋好矣
阿公共薰嘴仔收起來
阿姐共嫷舞衫脫落來
小弟的木馬四肢無力

阿母捧出豐沛的暗頓
逐家拍開溫柔的暝燈
厝內的人佮厝外的天
交接一片四是的天地

The Sky and the Earth
A land filled clean with blue and white skies
This is a fantastic picture

Grandmother’s white hair
Grandfather’s tobacco pipe
Sister’s ballet costume
Brother’s wooden horse
Are hanging in the sky

The sky is gradually fading away
Grandmother lets her white hair down
Grandfather lights his pipe to blow out a series of white curls
Sister stands on her toes to dance continuously
Brother jumps on his wooden horse to ride away
What a cheerful sky

The sun is setting and the moon is rising
Grandmother pulls her hair into a lovely bun
Grandfather picks up his pipe
Sister takes off her beautiful dancing costume
Brother is tired of riding his wooden horse

Mother made a rich dinner
We turn on the night lamp
Out of the window and inside of the family
What a wonderful sky and earth
