A guy is 84 years old and loves to fish.
一個84歲的老先生喜歡釣魚。

He was sitting in his boat the other day

when he heard a voice say, ' Pick me up. '
一天，他坐在船上釣魚的當下聽到

一個聲音說：「把我拿起來。」 !

He looked around and couldn ' t see anyone.
他四處張望，卻四下無人。

He thought he was dreaming

when he heard the voice say again, ' Pick me up. '
當他又聽到「把我拿起來」時，

他以為是他的幻覺。 

He looked in the water and there,

floating on the top, was a frog.
他往水中定神一看，

那裡正有一隻青蛙浮在水面上。

The man said, ' Are you talking to me? '
老先生問道：「你在跟我說話嗎？」

The frog said, ' Yes, I ' m talking to you.
青蛙回道：「對，就是我啊！」 
 
Pick me up then, kiss me and

I ' ll turn into the most beautiful woman you have ever seen.

將我拿起來，吻我，

我就會變為你今生所見最漂亮的女人。

I ' ll make sure that all your friends are envious

and jealous because I will be your bride! '
我確定你的朋友是既羨慕又嫉妒，

因為我即將成為你的新娘。
The man looked at the frog for a short time,

reached over, picked it up carefully,

and placed it in his front pocket.
老先生凝視青蛙片刻後，伸出手，

很小心地托起青蛙放入他前面的口袋裡。

The frog said, ' What, are you nuts?

Didn ' t you hear what I said?

I said kiss me and I will be your beautiful bride. '
青蛙說：「怎麼，你瘋啦？你沒聽我說嗎？

我說，吻我，然後我就會成為你美麗的新娘。」 

He opened his pocket, looked at the frog and said,
'Nah, at my age I ' d rather have a talking frog. '

他撥開他的口袋，看著青蛙說：

「算了，以我這樣的年紀，

  我寧願有一隻會說話的青蛙。」

人到達一個年齡，清楚甚麼是該要的，甚麼是不該要的，這是一種「智慧」。
