LESSON 11 WHAT A BIRD TAUGHT 小鸟说什么

1.Why do you come to my apple tree,

Little bird so gray?

Twit-twit, twit-twit, twit-twit-twee!

That was all he would say.

2.Why do you lock your rosy feet

So closely round the spray?

Twit-twit, twit-twit, twit-tweet!

That was all he would say.

3.Why on the topmost bough do you get,

Little bird so gray?

Twit-twit-twee! twit-twit-twit!

That was all he would say.

4.Where is your mate? come, answer me,

Little bird so gray.

Twit-twit-twit! twit-twit-twee!

That was all he would say.

(Alice Cary)
