午後7時 池のほとりで 7 pm at the pond's edge


一羽のマガモが 羽のなかに
頭をうずめて寝ようとしていました.

突然 胸の下から
小さなキャラメルカラーのパフが出てきました
1つ..2つ..3つ..そして他にも  計8羽

子ガモたちはまだ遊びたりないようでした.

A mallard buried her head in her feathers
as if she were ready to sleep.

Suddenly out from under her bosom came
caramel colored little powder puffs
1.. 2.. 3.. and then several others. A total of 8.

The ducklings didn't seem ready for playtime to end.
