24. 小雨點 Little Raindrops (bilingual children's poem)
3. 小雨點
天頂雄雄變色
恁一个一个相招離開厝
做夥激做水晶柱仔
四界溜溜走假若欲去佗位開同樂會
有的佇厝頂耍飛刀
刮甲水晶珠仔輾過來閣輾過去
有的跳落河底泅水
泅甲分袂出你我伊
有的淋佇塗跤佮花蕊姐仔談天說地
講甲心花逐蕊開甲紅紅紅
恁耍甲無暝無日
耍甲半小死了後想欲轉去厝
無半點元氣閣毋知厝佇佗位
按呢是欲按怎有才調轉去厝歇睏咧
Little Raindrops
That day
The weather suddenly changes
The little raindrops are leaving home one by one
After that they change their bodies into many crystal pillars
Going everywhere and dancing happily in the air
Some raindrops play a warrior’s game on the roof
Whipping each other with their crystal bead bodies
Some jump into the river swimming
They all swim together unable to know who is who
Some sit on the ground to chat with sister flowers
They talk with other joyfully
They play as much as possible
Until they feel tired and want to go home
But they have lost their energy
And how do they go home after they have lost their way?
