The scarecrow stood with I'ts head held high
稻草人昂首伫立
Admiring the view from the hill
欣赏着山上的景色
The waterfall scattered I'ts glistening jewels
瀑布散落一地我的珠宝闪闪发光
As the heron stood gracefully still
苍鹭优雅地站在那里一动不动
It seemed I looked without seeing
似乎我视而不见
I failed to grasp what I saw
我无法理解眼中所见
For all of nature's beautiful gifts
I blissfully chose to ignore
我满心欢喜地选择无视
As sandy beaches and soft swelling tides
如沙滩和柔软的潮汐
Invite the inquisitive young
邀请充满好奇的年轻人
And caviar oysters and pate de fois
鱼子酱牡蛎还有美味的土豆
Invite the discerning tongue
邀请能说会道的人
So comes the desire to be lost awhile
渴望暂时迷失自我
In the depths of the forest glade
在森林深处的沼泽地里
Midst the cool deep greens where ancient oaks
在冰凉的深绿色中古老的橡树
Cast wondrous spells in their shade
在他们的阴影下施下奇妙的咒语
And if sometimes I feel in retrospect
如果有时回想起来我感觉
A regret for the waste of my youth
对浪费青春的遗憾
Then I pause to reflect that I still have time
我停下来思考我还有时间
Before growing long in the tooth
在长出牙齿之前
To achieve all the things that I should have achieved
实现我本该实现的目标
When idleness led me astray
无所事事让我误入歧途
And being aware of what I have missed
意识到我失去了什么
I'm extending my use of the day
我要延长白天的使用时间
