Wind On The Hill

    -By A. A. Milne

No one can tell me,

Nobody knows,

Where the wind comes from,

Where the wind goes.

It's flying from somewhere

As fast as it can,

I couldn't keep up with it,

Not if I ran.

But if I stopped holding

The string of my kite,

It would blow with the wind

For a day and a night.

And then when I found it,

Wherever it blew,

I should know that the wind

Had been going there too.

So then I could tell them

Where the wind goes…

But where the wind comes from

Nobody knows.

山上的风

    ——作者：A.A. Milne 

没人能告诉我

无从得知

风来自哪里

又奔向何处

风来自远方

尽情地飞翔

他无法追赶

即使我狂奔

如果我放开

风筝的丝线

它依然被风拍打

夜以继日

当我终于发现

风吹向何处

我也知道

风已找到归宿

那时我可以告诉他们

风去了哪里

但是风来自何方

仍无从得知
