原文與注釋(Text and Annotation)


All you happy creatures, I hear the cry of joy that you are making to each other. I see the sky above me is smiling in your joy and my heart celebrates yout feast and my head wears its crown of flowers. I feel your complete happiness. It would be a sad, evil day if I were unhappywhen nature itself is putting on so much joy this sweet morning and children everywhere are gathering fresh flowers. The sun is shining warmly and the little baby leaps in its mother's arms. I hear with joy. Nevertheless, when I look at a particular tree or a single field, i know that something is missing. The small flower at my feet says the same thing. What has happened to my first experience with nature? Where has it gone, this glory and dream?
