五颗豌豆

Five Peas

五颗豌豆

Once upon a time, there lived five little peas in a pea pod.  They were all different, but still living together, as the pea pot was still closed. They were too small to bear with the sun. They used to sleep all day. But at night, they used to talk to each other and listen to the music around them. 

很久很久以前，一个豌豆荚里住着五颗豌豆。它们各不相同，但仍然生活在一起，因为豌豆罐仍然是闭着的。他们太小了，经不起太阳的照射。他们过去常常整天睡觉。但在晚上，他们会互相交谈。

Especially, the music of the moon. The moon, when crescent, used to tie some silver strings to its ends. It used to play the harp and sing some beautiful songs for the peas. At the times of full moon, it used to played drums. The peas would wake up, listening to the loud drums played by the moon, but every pea has its own reaction to the moon's music. 

尤其是月亮的音乐。新月的时候，常常在它的末端系上一些银绳。它以前会弹竖琴，给豌豆唱一些美妙的歌曲。月圆的时候，它会打鼓。听着月亮响的鼓声，豌豆都醒了，但每一颗豌豆都对月亮的音乐有自己的反应。

I love this sound of drums, boom, boom, boom! I love this music. I love its castanets. It's soothing. I like the way it plays to the harp, it's a very beautiful, so melodious. Oh, why can't there be some quiet time? Forget the music. I love to sleep as much as I can. Just go with the flow of life. The fourth pea was very lazy, it loved to sleep all the time. The fifth and the youngest pea was very different from the other four. I love all kinds of music. The castanets, the drums, and the harp, too. Each one of them is special, and makes me happy when I listen to them. 

我喜欢鼓声，砰，砰，砰！我喜欢这种音乐。我喜欢它的响板。它能抚慰人心。我喜欢它弹竖琴的方式，它很美，很悦耳。为什么就不能安静点呢？不要再说音乐了。我喜欢尽可能多地睡觉。顺其自然吧。第四粒豌豆很懒，它总是喜欢睡觉。第五粒也是最年轻的一粒豌豆和其他四粒很不一样。我喜欢各种各样的音乐。响板，鼓，还有竖琴。他们每一个都是特别的，当我听他们的时候我很开心。

The peas were growing day by day. They didn't realize it until they were fully grown. Now they felt that their pod had become congested. Please move aside. I have no space to move. Even I don't have any. It's in stuffy here. The pod has become too cramped to stay. Yes, I'm not able to sleep here anymore. Please make some space for me. I'm the smallest, but still finding it difficult to move. All of them were complaining, and asking each other to move aside. Suddenly the pea pod cracked open, and a harsh light came in.

豌豆一天天在生长。他们直到完全长大后才意识到这一点。现在他们觉得豆荚已经变得拥挤了。请移到一边。我没有地方移动。连我自己都没有。这里太闷了。荚果舱变得太狭窄，无法停留。是的，我在这里再也睡不着了。请给我腾点地方。我是最小的，但仍然觉得很难移动。所有的人都在抱怨，要求彼此让开。突然，豌豆荚裂开了，一道刺眼的光线射了进来。
