The Land Of Counterpane
Robert Louis Stevenson
When I was sick and lay a-bed,
I had two pillows at my head,
And all my toys beside me lay,
To keep me happy all the day.
僕は、病気でべッドゥに横になった時、
僕は、頭に二つ枕をした
そして、僕の傍の僕の玩具全部を並ベた
一日、僕を幸せな気持のままでいさせたくて
And sometimes for an hour or so
I watched my leaden soldiers go,
With different uniforms and drills,
Among the bed-clothes, through the hills;
そうして、時に、一時間か、そこいら
僕は、鉛の兵隊達が、色んな制服を身につけ、
寝具の間や丘を通って行進し、教練するのを見物した。
And sometimes sent my ships in fleets
All up and down among the sheets;
Or brought my trees and houses out,
And planted cities all about.
I was the giant great and still
That sits upon the pillow-hill,
And sees before him, dale and plain,
The pleasant land of counterpane.
