7 The Cow

The Cow Please listen while I tell you now About a most fantastic cow. Miss Milky Daisy was her name, And when, aged seven months, she came To live with us, she did her best To look the same as all the rest. But Daisy, as we all could see Had some kind of deformity, A funny sort of bumpy lump On either side, above the rump. Now, not so very long ago, These bumpy lumps began to grow, And three or maybe four months later, (I stood there, an enthralled spectator) These bumpy lumps burst wide apart And out there came (I cross my heart)

请听我现在给你们讲一头最神奇的牛。 她的名字叫乳白色的雏菊小姐，当她七个月大的时候，她来到我们家和我们一起生活，她尽力让自己看起来和其他的孩子一样。 但是黛西，正如我们所看到的，有某种畸形，在臀部上方，两边都有一个奇怪的凹凸不平的肿块。 现在，就在不久之前，这些凹凸不平的肿块开始生长，三四个月后，（我站在那里，一个着迷的观众）这些凹凸不平的肿块裂开了（我发誓）

Of all the wondrous marvellous things, A pair of gold and silver wings! A cow with wings! A flying cow! I'd never seen one up to now.

在所有奇妙的事物中，一对金色和银色的翅膀！一头长着翅膀的牛！会飞的牛！到现在为止我还没见过。

"Oh Daisy dear, can this be true?" She flapped her wings and up she flew! Most gracefully she climbed up high, She fairly whizzed across the sky. You should have seen her dive and swoop! She even did a loop the loop! Of course, almost immediately Her picture was on live T.V., And millions came each day to stare At Milky Daisy in the air. The shouted "Jeepers Creepers! Wow! "It really is a flying cow!" They laughed and clapped and cheered and waved, And all of them were well-behaved

“噢，亲爱的黛西，这是真的吗？”她扇动翅膀，飞起来了！她优雅地爬到高处，嗖嗖地划过天空。 你真该看看她的俯冲！她甚至还跳了一圈！当然，她的照片几乎立刻就上了电视直播，每天都有数百万人来观看空中的乳白色雏菊。 他们喊道：“该死的爬虫！”哇!“它真的是一只会飞的牛！”他们笑着，鼓掌，欢呼，挥手，所有的人都表现得很好

Except for one quite horrid man Who'd travelled from Afghanistan. This fellow, standing in the crowd,

除了一个从阿富汗来的可怕的人。 这个人，站在人群中，

Raised up his voice and yelled aloud, "That silly cow! Hey, listen Daisy! "I think you're absolutely crazy!" Unfortunately Daisy heard Quite clearly every single word. "By gosh," she cried, "what awful cheek! "Who is this silly foreign freak?" She dived, and using all her power She got to sixty miles an hour. "Bombs gone!" she cried. "Take that!" she said, And dropped a cowpat on his head.

他提高嗓门大声喊道：“那头蠢母牛！嘿，听着，黛西！“我觉得你绝对是疯了！”不幸的是，黛西每个字都听得很清楚。 “天哪，”她叫道，“多么可怕的脸皮！“这个愚蠢的外国怪胎是谁？”她潜入水中，用尽全力，她的速度达到了每小时六十英里。 “炸弹不见了！”她喊道。“拿去吧！”她说着，把一只牛拍落在他的头上。
