Why is a bee called a bee ? Why isn't it called a cee ?
You can' t be a bee，but you could see a cee , so why don' t we call it a cee ?
Why is a bee called a bee ? Why isn' t it called a dee ?
Then we'd have bumble dees and honey dees .
How confusing to call a bee dee ！
Why is a bee called a bee ？Why isnt it called an eee ?
If a bee goes B-uzz , would an eee go E-uzz ?
Is that why it's not called an eee ?
Why is a bee called a bee? Why isn't it called a pea ?
If bees were called peas , would peas be called bees ?
Then Mother would say, "Eat your bees ."
Why is a bee called a bee ? Why isnt it called a zee ?
Would the honey we eat just put us to sleep if it came from honey bee zzzs ?
So why is a bee called a bee ?
Would you rather it be cee , dee ,or eee ?
If you really don't mind, I think you will find that it's better to let the bee be!

為什麽蜜蜂要叫蜜蜂（bee） ？
? ---作者吉爾伯特·貝爾斯
為什麽蜜蜂要叫蜜蜂bee？為什麽不叫它cee？
妳不能是蜜蜂bee，但妳可以看到cee，
那我們為什麽不叫它cee？
為什麽蜜蜂要叫蜜蜂bee？為什麽不叫它dee？
這樣我們就有了大黃蜂dees和蜂蜜dees.
稱蜜蜂bee為dee太令人困惑了!
為什麽蜜蜂要叫蜜蜂bee? 為什麽不叫eee？
如果壹只蜜蜂飛起來會B-uzz響，
那麽壹只eee飛起來會E-uzz響嗎？
這也是為什麽它不能叫eee嗎？
為什麽蜜蜂要叫蜜蜂bee？為什麽不叫豌豆pea？
如果蜜蜂被稱叫做豌豆peas，
那豌豆peas就會叫做蜜蜂bees嗎？
然後媽媽會說，“吃妳的蜜蜂bees。”
為什麽蜜蜂要叫蜜蜂bee？為什麽不叫zee？
如果我們吃的蜂蜜來自蜜蜂的zzzs，它會讓我們昏昏欲睡嗎？
所以為什麽蜜蜂要叫蜜蜂bee？
妳寧願叫它cee、dee還是eee嗎？
如果妳真的不介意，
我想妳會發現, 最好還是叫它蜜蜂bee吧！
