Volunteer: ” Why your loquat trees are so short, and mine is 30 feet high? ”
義工: “為何你的枇杷樹都這麼矮, 而我的樹有30呎高?”
Nung-fu: ” Instead of cutting all the lower branches, you top the loquat tree to keep as low as it can be.”
農夫: “保留低枝, 剪去頂端高枝, 盡量使樹長矮.”

Volunteer: ” Your variety is better than mine.”
義工: ” 你的品種一定比我的好.”
Nung-fu: ” How do you know that?”
農夫: ” 你怎麼知道的?”
” Your loquat is sweeter than mine.”
” 你的枇杷比較甜.”
” Variety does not make so much deference.  It may be the squirrel, not until loquat fully ripen, you intend to have the fruit before squirrel come.  Only when it is ripe, it is sweet”
” 品種並沒多大關係.  可能是松鼠, 你不等枇杷完全熟, 在松鼠來之前就吃它.  枇杷熟了才會甜.”

Volunteer: “Loquat is tasty.  I’ll plant a loquat tree from seed.  Do I have to open the shell  to help the seed germinating?”
義工: ” 枇杷太好吃了.  我要用種子種一棵枇杷樹.  把殼敲碎, 會讓種子快發芽嗎?”
Nung-fu: ” On the contrary, you’ll kill it.”
農夫: ” 正好相反, 你會毀了它.”

On the way to the veggie area,
Volunteer:” There is nothing to weed.”
Nung-fu:” You have not seen anything yet.”

去菜田的路上,
義工:” 這裡沒什麼草要除的.”
農夫:” 您什麼都還沒看到呢!”
-

Weeds and fava bean plants mingled well in the fava bean field,
Volunteer:” Is this the place?”
Nung-fu:” Yes, clear the weeds up but the plants.”

蠶豆田裡, 野草與蠶豆苗混長,
義工:” 就是這塊田嗎?”
農夫:” 是的, 清野草, 留豆苗.”

While weeding in the bearded iris field, we heard a nearby peacock yarping.  It was real and amiable.
Volunteer:” I would like to have a peacock in my backyard to enjoy the beauty of his resplendent appearance and piping melodies.”
Nung-fuh:” Neighbors will complain about the damage to their plants and the noisiness he makes.  Besides, the police will give you a ticket.”
在鳶尾蘭田除草時, 我們聽到近處一隻孔雀叫.  那麼真切.
義工:” 好想在後院養一隻孔雀, 可以欣賞牠的炫麗與高歌.”
農婦:” 鄰居會抱怨牠毀了人家的植物和牠擾人. 此外, 警察會給您開罰單.”

Nice work!
除得太好了.

All goats stayed far away,
Left Celebrity alone with the visitors.
One visitor patted him and asked Nung-fu,
“He likes me!  Is he something wrong?”
“My baby goat. He thinks himself as human being.”

所有羊都跑得老遠,
只有小明星和訪客在一起.
一位訪客拍著小明星, 問農夫,
“牠喜歡我呢! 牠有毛病嗎?”
” 牠是我的羊兒子. 自以為是人.”

Many thanks for your hard work.
Highly appreciate your friendship.
