Every evening, Owl climbs the old oak with a small lantern. She hangs it on a branch.
每天傍晚,猫头鹰都带着一盏小灯爬上老橡树。她把灯挂在一根树枝上。
The light helps the mice find the path home. Owl watches them go, one by one.
灯光帮助老鼠们找到回家的路。猫头鹰看着它们一只一只地走过。
One night the wind blows hard. The lantern swings, tips, and goes dark.
一天晚上,风刮得很猛。灯摇来摇去,歪了一下,然后灭了。
Below, the mice stop on the path. Owl hears their small feet turn in circles.
下面的老鼠在小路上停了下来。猫头鹰听见它们的小脚在原地打转。
Owl calls the fireflies, and they gather in her glass jar. Their green light is softer than fire.
猫头鹰呼唤萤火虫,它们聚在她的玻璃罐里。它们的绿光比火更柔和。
She lifts the jar high, and the mice find their way. Some lights only need helping hands.
她把罐子举得高高的,老鼠们找到了路。有些光只需要一双帮忙的手。
