Fairy Shoes
by Annette Wynne
The little shoes that fairies wear
Are very small indeed;
No larger that a violet bud,
As tiny as a seed.
The little shoes that fairies wear
Are very trim and neat;
They leave no tracks behind for those
Who search along the street.
The little shoes that fairies wear
So light and soft and small
That though a million passed you by
You would not hear at all.
精灵穿的小鞋儿
真是非常小;
大不过紫罗兰花苞,
小如种子一粒.
精灵穿的小鞋儿
整洁又灵巧;
不留一点儿踪迹
让人们沿街寻找.
精灵穿的小鞋儿
轻盈、柔软又小巧
纵有千万擦身过
你也未曾知晓。
