玩具 Playthings

Perhaps you glance at me and think, "What a stupid game to spoil your morning with!" 也許你在看我，想道：這種好沒(méi)趣的游戲，竟把你的一早晨的好時(shí)間浪費(fèi)掉了!

I seek out costly playthings, and gather lumps of gold and silver. 我尋求貴重的玩具，收集金塊與銀塊。
With whatever you find you create your glad games, I spend both my time and my strength over things I never can obtain. 你呢，無(wú)論找到什么便去做你的快樂(lè)的游戲，我呢，卻把我的.時(shí)間與力氣都浪費(fèi)在那些我永不能得到的東西上。
In my frail canoe I struggle to cross the sea of desire, and forget that I too am playing a game. 我在我的脆薄的獨(dú)木船里掙扎著要航過(guò)欲望之海，意忘了我也是在那里做游戲了。
