The Countryside in Summer
夏天的乡村
The days are long and the nights are short, for the sun gets up early and goes to bed late in sunny June. It is one of the best and brightest months in the year. Birds sing from sunrise till long after sunset.
白天长，夜晚短，因为阳光明媚的六月太阳起得早，睡得晚。这是一年中最好最亮的月份之一。鸟儿从日出一直歌唱到日落后很久。
Not only at night does the nightingale sing. On almost every warm day in early June, the little brown bird sings away in the roads and woods, but, as all the other birds are also singing at the same time, we do not notice his voice so much. It is at night, when he has the field all to himself, that we hear the nightingale at his best.
夜莺不仅在晚上歌唱。几乎在六月初的每一个温暖的日子里，这只棕色的小鸟都在路上和树林里歌唱，但是，由于其他所有的小鸟也在同时歌唱，我们没有注意到他的声音。正是在夜晚，当他独自拥有这片土地时，我们听到夜莺在他最好的时候。
