Storie bilingue per bambini - www.freekidstories.org

1. The man who wants a garden fair,
Or small or very big,
With flowers growing here and there,
Must bend his back and dig.
Chi vuole un bel giardino,
che sia grande oppur piccino,
con bei fiori da guardare,
deve mettersi a scavare.

2. The things are mighty few on earth
That wishes can attain.
Whate'er we want of any worth
We've got to work to gain.
Ci son poche cose al mondo
per cui bastan desideri:
se si voglion cose degne,
al lavoro si va seri.

3. It matters not what goal you seek
Its secret here reposes:
You've got to dig from week to week
To get results or roses.
Non importa l’obiettivo
qui è il segreto delle cose:
dai di pala, ogni giorno,
se vuoi risultati o rose.
