Come, my children, come away!

来啊孩子们，出来玩！

For the sun shines bright today.

今天的阳光无比灿烂。

Little children come with me,

小朋友们，快跟我来，

Birds, and brooks, and posies see;

鸟儿小溪鲜花多可爱；

Get your hats and come away,

快拿好帽子，出来玩，

For it is a pleasant day.

今天是美好的一天！

Every thing is laughing, singing.

四处都是欢歌和笑语，

All the pretty flowers are springing.

花儿开放，桃红柳绿。

See the kitten full of fun

快来看那可爱的小猫，

Sporting in the pleasant sun!

在阳光下面尽情玩耍。

Children too may sport and play,

孩子们啊，快出来玩！

For it is a pleasant day.

今天是美好的一天！

Bring the hoop and bring the ball,

拿出皮球，拿出铁环，

Come with happy faces all.

小朋友们都喜眉笑眼。

Let us make a merry ring,

兴高采烈站成一个圈，

Talk and laugh, and dance and sing,

跳舞唱歌，欢笑交谈，

Quickly, quickly, come away!

快啊，快啊，出来玩！

For it is a pleasant day.

今天是美好的一天！
