Sometimes he pitches from the summit of a tree,begins his song as soon as he gets upon the wing, 食米鸟常常落在树梢，一旦梳理好翅膀，便开始亮开歌喉，
and flutters tremulously down to the earth, as if overcome with ecstasy 1 at his own music. 它不时朝地面猛力拍打双翼，仿佛在自己歌声里陶醉忘形；
Sometimes he is in pursuit of his mate; always in full song, 它自然喜欢追求配偶，开口吟唱那些高亢曲调，
as if he would win her by his melody; and always with the same appearance of intoxication 2 and delight. 好像唯有音欤相求，才能获取配偶芳心，当然，它那一副陶醉自得的快乐神情让人忍俊不禁。

It seemed as if the little varlet mocked at me as he flew by in full song, and sought to taunt 8 me with his happier lot. Oh, how I envied him! 这个看起来像恶棍的家伙，放开歌喉从我身边飞过，它唱得那么开心，似乎伺机嘲笑我。哦，我嫉妒死它了！
No lessons, no task, no school; nothing but holiday, frolic, green fields, and fine weather. 没有功课，没有作业，没有学校，除了假期、嬉戏、绿色田野及美妙气候，
Had I been then more versed 9 in poetry, I might have addressed him in the words of Logan to the cuckoo: 它真是一无所有。假如我具有更多的诗歌才华，原本可将诗人洛根送给杜鹃鸟的赞誉送给它。
Sweet bird, thy bower 10 is ever green, Thy sky is ever clear; 甜蜜的鸟儿，你的巢穴四季常青，天空那么清澈湛蓝，
Thou hast no sorrow in thy song, No winter in thy year. 你的岁月没有漫长冬季，你的歌声没有丝毫悲伤，
