绿头鸭落下来

The mallard ducks are down

过夜。它们睡着后

for the night. They chuckle

笑得咯咯响，梦到了墨西哥

in their sleep and dream of Mexico

和洪都拉斯。水田芥

and Honduras. Watercress

在灌溉渠里点头，

nods in the irrigation ditch

灯芯草往前倾着，因为

and the tules slump forward, heavy

乌鸫落到上面而沉甸甸的。

with blackbirds

稻田在月光下浮动。

Rice fields float under the moon.

就连湿漉漉的枫树叶也来贴着

Even the maple leaves cling

我的挡风玻璃。我跟你说玛丽安，

to my windshield. I tell you Maryann,

我心情愉快。

I am happy.
