In the shadows, in the bushes, in the space between the leaves 在阴影里，草丛中，叶子之间的空间

A spider in a thicket crawled up on my knee 在灌木丛蜘蛛爬在我的膝盖

I put my gloves on, put my hat on, and I ran from the trees 我把我的手套上，把我的帽子，我从树上跑

But that little black spider came a crawling after me 但是，这一点黑蜘蛛来爬行追我

From the shadows in the bushes, in the space between the leaves 从阴影在灌木丛中，在叶片之间的空间

A little black spider came a crawling home with me 一个黑色的小蜘蛛来爬行带回家

   

It crawled across my window as I lay me down to sleep 它爬在我的窗口，我躺下睡觉

In the morning on my pillow it waited patiently 在我的枕头早晨，耐心地等待着

And then came the ants, the frogs and the snakes 随后而来的是蚂蚁，青蛙和蛇

Slithering and sliding through my clean white sheets 滑行并通过我的干净的白色床单滑

Rustling from the bushes, creeping from the leaves 从草丛沙沙作响，从树叶匍匐

Every awful creature came a crawling over me 每一个可怕的怪物来爬行着我

   

I crushed them and killed them, but they came all the more í粉碎他们，杀了他们，但他们来了更

So I ran in my nightshirt out onto the lawn 于是我就在我的睡衣走出草地上

But I tripped up on a tree root and they swarmed from the weeds 但我绊倒在一个树根，他们就从杂草一拥而上

A million little teeth tore me to pieces 数以百万计的小牙齿撕我个

In the shadows of the thicket rain poured through the leaves 在丛中雨的影子穿过树叶倒

And I was scattered in the mud beneath the dripping trees 我是散落在滴水树下的泥土

   

But from here and from there, from every direction 但是从这里，从那里，从各个方向

Little voices sang under twigs and mosses 小声音在树枝和苔藓唱

And I swarmed and I gathered under logs and leaves 我一拥而上，我在日志和叶集

I crawled and I slithered under rotting trees 我爬到我在腐烂的树木滑行

In the tangle of the bushes, underneath the wet leaves 在灌木丛中的纠结，下方的湿树叶

I am many and nothing and I crawl up on your knee 我很多并没有什么，我爬在你的膝盖上了
