〈Five Busy Honey Bees〉是廣為流傳的童謠(nursery rhymes),原始創作者難確認,但簡單字句鮮活描述蜜蜂的忙碌,讓孩子容易學習。
Here is the beehive. Where are the bees?
Hidden away where nobody sees.
Soon they will come, creeping out from the hive;
One, two , three, four, five.
Five busy honey bees were resting in the sun.
The first one said, “Let us have some fun.”
The second one said, “Where shall it be?”
The third one said, “In the honey tree.”
The fourth one said, “Let’s make some honey sweet.”
The fifth one said, “With pollen on our feet.”
The five little busy bees sang their buzzing tune,
As they worked in the beehive all that afternoon.
Bzzzzzz! ......Bzzzzzz! ......Bzzzzzz!
五隻蜜蜂很忙
蜂箱這裡。蜜蜂哪裡去啦?
藏在沒有人看到的地方
很快牠們就會出現,從蜂箱裡爬出來
一二三四五
五隻忙碌的蜜蜂,在陽光下休息
第一隻說:「讓我們找些樂趣。」
第二隻說:「在哪裡?」
第三隻說:「在蜜樹裡。」
第四隻說:「讓我們把蜂蜜弄甜。」
第五隻說:「在我們腳上傳授花粉。」
五隻小蜜蜂唱著牠們的嗡嗡旋律,
因為牠們在那天下午,在蜂箱裡工作
嗡嗡嗡……嗡嗡嗡……嗡嗡嗡
