我們嬉鬧撞到鍋盤(pán)，

Slid fromthe kitchen shelf;

并且從櫥架上滑落；

媽媽緊繃著臉，

Could notunfrown itself.

面容難以舒緩。

The handthat held my wrist

那雙握我手腕的手，

Wasbattered on one knuckle;

有一根指節(jié)被撞傷；

At everystep you missed

你每踏錯(cuò)一個(gè)舞步，

My rightear scraped a buckle.

我右耳就刮到扣環(huán)。

You beattime on my head

你敲我腦袋打節(jié)拍，

With apalm caked hard by dirt,

手掌的泥土已結(jié)塊，
