If I Were Nocturnal
假如我是夜行者
Art by Monika Filipina
傅梦怡 译
If I were nocturnal, I would wake up when the world grows dark and the moon comes out.
I would walk to the park and call to my friends, “Hello, Beaver! Hello, Skunk! Hello, Raccoon! Come out and play with me!”
Beaver would teach me to build a dam of sticks and mud. Then Raccoon and Skunk would help me hunt insects and find berries for a midnight picnic in the grass.
After our snack, we would play hide-and-seek in the shadows and watch spiders spin webs.
When the sun started to rise, I would say, “Good night!” and walk home.
Then, as the birds began to sing, I would put on my pajamas and get into my bed.
If I were nocturnal, I would sleep all day and then wake up with the rising moon.
假如我是夜行者，我会在天色变暗、月亮出来的时候起床。
我会走到公园里，向朋友们打招呼：“你好，海狸！你好，臭鼬！你好，浣熊！出来和我一起玩吧！”
海狸教我用树枝和泥巴筑坝。浣熊和臭鼬帮我捕获昆虫，寻找浆果，为午夜的草地野餐做准备。
吃过点心后，我们在树荫下捉迷藏，看蜘蛛结网。
当太阳开始升起时，我会说：“晚安！”然后步行回家。
接着，当鸟儿开始唱歌时，我穿上睡衣，上床睡觉。
假如我是夜行者，我会睡一整天，然后随着升起的月亮醒来。
