The Baby Stork | 鹳宝宝

English Original

Two storks are sitting in their nest — a father stork and his baby. The baby stork is crying, so the father tries to calm him.

"Don't worry, son. Your mother will come back. She's just delivering babies to people and making them happy."

The next night, it's the father's turn. Mother and son are in the nest, and the baby stork is crying again. The mother says,

"Son, your father will be back soon. Right now, he's bringing joy to new parents."

A few days later, the parents are desperate because their son has been out all night! Just before dawn, he returns. They ask where he's been.

The baby stork replies, "Nowhere. Just scaring the hell out of college students!"


中文翻译

两只坐在巢里——鹳爸爸和鹳宝宝。鹳宝宝在哭,鹳爸爸试图安抚他。

“别担心,儿子。你妈妈会回来的。她只是去给人们送宝宝,让他们开心。”

第二天晚上,轮到爸爸去工作了。妈妈和儿子在巢里,鹳宝宝又哭了。妈妈说:

“儿子,你爸爸会尽快回来的。他现在正给新爸爸新妈妈们送去欢乐呢。”

几天后,鹳父母急坏了,因为他们的儿子整晚都没回巢!天快亮时,他回来了。父母问他整晚去了哪里。

鹳宝宝回答说:“没去哪儿。就是去吓唬大学生了!”
