old mother goose 単語の意味

Old Mother Goose, when
She wanted to wander, 放浪する
Would ride through the air
On a very fine gander. オスのガチョウ

Mother Goose had a house,
‘T was built in a wood,
Where an owl at the door
For sentinel stood.見張り番

She had a son Jack,
A plain-looking lad;地味な 若者、少年
He was not very good,
Nor yet very bad.

She sent him to market,
A live goose he bought: メスのガチョウ
“Here! mother,” says he,
“It will not go for nought.” そのうちいいこともあるでしょよ

Jack’s goose and her gander
Grew very fond; 好きになった
They’d both eat together,
Or swim in one pond.

Jack found one morning,
As I have been told, 本に話によく聞いた
His goose had laid him
An egg of pure gold.

Jack rode to his mother,
The news for to tell.
She called him a good boy,
And said it was well.
