农夫称赞鸟能干
可把糟蹋庄稼的昆虫吃完
好极了！它当然能提高量产
一年丰光无限

鸟听了，并不以为然
说了几句平淡乏味话
我们不是喜欢吃昆虫
“随心所欲”只是我们一个习惯

只要你们用杀虫剂把虫杀完
我们不会有任何意见
记住！事实是鸟总是吃喝玩乐
当没有昆虫能捕获
我们，鸟儿，肯定吃你的庄稼

Talks between a farmer and a bird 

A farmer praises a bird for its capability
Of eating up all the insects upon the crops
Fantastic! It certainly contributes to high yields
Of crops enough for everyone a good year 

The bird listened but didn't think appropriate 
Yielding a few words plain and insipid
Eating up insects is not something we favor
"Eat as you like" is just us a habit 

Provided you guys wipe out worms by insecticides
We would not make any bits of advice
As a fact, everyone remembers,

 birds drink, eat and have fun 
When no insects could capture 
We, the birds, eat your crops for sure
