The Poet and His Favourite Poems

He recently wrote ten poems all at once.
He asked me, 'Which one do you like?'
I like his third poem.
He asked her, 'Which one do you like?'
She likes his eighth poem.
He said his own favorite is the sixth one.

他最近一口氣寫了十首詩。
他問我,喜歡他那一首詩?
我喜歡他的第三首詩。
他問她,喜歡他那一首詩?
我喜歡他的第八首詩。
他說他自己最喜歡的是第六首。

Barclay James Harvest:- The Poet


Here I sit watching the day out
No one beside me who may doubt
All of the words that I could chose to say
So listen, believe, or be gone from this day

I need a friend to walk with me
And sit in the shade of an old tree
To think nothing much, 
just agree with my thoughts
To say nothing much, 
never tell what I ought

Watching the people pass by now
They just don't know why 
or know how
They don't seem to care about all 
that I've seen
They just walk on by never 
knowing I've been
Sitting up here where 
I'm wind blown
Only to ask and to be shown
Things that would make you believe 
what I say
I'll tell you myself and 
I'll show you some day
