小小核桃樹

□孫建秋 孫建和

Little Nut Tree

I had a little nut tree,

Nothing would it bear,

But a silver nutmeg

And a golden pear.

The king of Spain’s daughter

Came to visit me,

And all for the sake

Of my little nut tree.

我有棵小小核桃樹，

可它從來不結果。

只結了一粒銀色豆蔻

和金色梨子一個。

西班牙國王的女兒，

遠道前來拜訪我，

她只是為了來看看

這小小核桃樹一棵。
