What is this life if, full of care
这还叫什么生活,光是忙忙碌碌
We have no time to stand and stare
没有停一停,看一看的时间
No time to stand beneath the boughs
没有时间站在树荫下
And stare as long as sheep and cows
像牛羊那样尽情瞻望
No time to see, when woods we pass
没有时间看到,在走过树林时
Where squirrels hides their nuts in grass
松鼠把壳果往草丛里收藏
No time to see, in broad daylight
没有时间看到,在大好的阳光下
Streams full of stars like skies at night
溪流像夜空群星点点闪闪
No time to turn at Beauty's glance
没有时间注意到少女的流昐
And watch her feet, how they can dance
观赏她双足起舞蹁跹
No time to wait till her mouth can enrich that smile her eyes began
没有时间等待她眉间的柔情展开成唇的微笑
A poor to life this if, full of care
这生活就一定贫乏,倘若光是忙碌
We have no time to stand and stare
没有停一停,看一看的时间
