Long, long ago there were two brothers.
The big brother was Sun.
The little brother was Moon.
They loved to run across the sky
很久很久以前,有两兄弟。
哥哥是太阳。
弟弟是月亮。
他们喜欢在天空中奔跑。
When Sun ran across the sky,
The Earth was warm.
When Moon ran across the sky,
The Earth was cool.
The people were very happy.
当太阳横跨天空时,地球变得温暖。
当月亮横跨天空时,地球变得凉爽。
地球上的人们生活得很幸福。
But Sun grew bigger and bigger
After a while, he was so big that he filled the sky.
“Make room for me!”said Moon to sun.
“No.” said Sun.“Why should I make room for you?”The people love me.”
但是,太阳越长越大了。
没过多久,他就几乎填满了整个天空。
月亮对太阳说:“给我留点空间!”
太阳说:“不,我为什么要给你留空间?人们爱我。”
Sun shone and shone.
The land got hotter and hotter.
Soon the people were hot and tired.
“We miss the cool moon.” they said.
太阳持续发光发热。大地变得越来越热。
很快,地球上的人们又热又累。
他们说:“我们想念凉爽的月亮。”
Moon was small but he was clever.
“Big Brother,” Moon called.
“The people do not like you anymore.”
“Nonsense!”said Sun.”The people love me! They come out to see me all the time.”
“Then where are they?”said Moon.
月亮很小,可是他很聪明。
月亮叫道:“大哥,仁恩不再喜欢你了!”
太阳说:“一派胡言!人们爱我!他们愿意永远看到我!”
月亮问:“那么人们现在在哪儿呢?”
Sun looked down at the dry, hot Earth. He saw no one.
“You see, no one loves you.” said Moon.
“Go away!” said Sun.
“Make me!”said Moon.
Then, with an angry roar, Sun chased Moon across the sky.
太阳低头看着干旱炙热的地球。
他没看到一个人。
月亮说:“看,没有人爱你了。”
太阳恼怒了:“走开”
月亮说:“你试一试!”
然后,太阳一边怒吼着,一边在天空中追赶月亮。
As Sun went down, Moon came up. The people came out of their houses.
“At last, the cool night is here!” they said.
当太阳落下去后,月亮就升起来了。
人们从他们的房子里出来了。
人们说:“太好了!终于又迎来凉爽的夜晚了。”
Sun and Moon are still chasing each other across the sky. When Sun goes down moon comes up.
Sun brings day and Moon brings night.
太阳和月亮还在天空中追逐着。
太阳落下去,月亮就升起来。
太阳带来白昼,月亮带来夜晚。
