住房剛剛粉刷。我們買了桌子、椅子。
偶有鄰居駐足說，“你們的住所很漂亮。”
母親生前非常喜歡的植物開花了。

If you aren't mean to people,they'll be good to you.
The apartment's freshly painted.We bought a table,chairs.
A neighbor stops by sometimes,and says,‘Your place looks nice.’
The plant that mother liked so much is in bloom.
I wanted to bring flowers but was afraid they'd wilt.
The air, trees, stone and earth all listen as we talk
And only the one ...
