リトルミスビジーは忙しく働いていることが何よりも大好きでした。
Little Miss Busy loved working busily more than anything else.彼女は毎朝三時に起きて、 それから愛読書を読みます。
She wakes up every morning at three o'clock, and then reads her favorite book.本のタイトルは、 「 働くことは体にいい」。
The title of the book is "Working is Good for the Body".それから朝食です。
After that, breakfast.あらあら、 ご飯の時くらい落ち着けばいいのに。
Oh my, oh my! You should at least relax at meal time, you know!次はお掃除。
Next, cleaning.まずは部屋の埃を払い、 窓を拭いて、
First, sweep away the dust of the room, wipe the windows,床をピカピカに磨き上げたら、 今度はもう一度、 窓を拭きます。
polish up the floor until it shines, and then wipe the windows one more time.かなり念入りなのね。
She's quite thorough, huh?忙しく仕事をしていない限り、 彼女には満足感はありません。
If she doesn't keep busy with work, she doesn't have a feeling of satisfaction.ところが、 ある月曜日のこと、 リトルミスビジーはまだ起きていませんでした。
However, on a certain Monday, Little Miss Busy had not woken up yet!あら、 何だか具合が悪そうね。
Oh my, she seems to be a pretty poor state...リトルミスビジーはメイクユーウェル氏を呼んで、 診てもらいました。
Little Miss Busy called Mr. Make You Well, and had him examine her.「 大丈夫です。
"It's okay.安静にして、 ゆっくり休めば治りますよ」
Get some bed rest, and if you take it easy, you'll get better."「 ゆっくり休むですって! なんてことを! 」
"Take it easy, you said? What a thing to say!"火曜日、 ミスターストロングがたくさんの卵を持って訪ねて来ました。
On Tuesday, Mister Strong came visiting with a lot of eggs.「 卵ほど力の付くものはありませんよ」
"There is nothing better than eggs to give you strength!"卵を食べ終えたリトルミスビジー、 顔色が少し良くなったみたい。
When she finished eating the eggs, Little Miss Busy's complexion seemed to look a little bit better.「 さあ、 食事の後は少し横になった方がいいですよ」
"All right, after eating, you should lie down for a while!"「 横になるですって! なんてことを! 」
"Lay down, you say? What a thing to say!"木曜日、 ミスターナンセンスが訪ねて来ました。
On Thursday, Mr. Nonsense came to visit.「 あなたには安静は必要ありません。
"You don't need rest!"必要なのは楽しい休暇です」
"What you need is a fun day off!"「 まだ休むの! なんてことを! 」
"More resting? What a thing to do!「 はあ、 駄目。
What? No way...めまいがしてきたわ」
I'm starting to get dizzy!"次の日、 リトルミスビジーは休暇について考えました。
The following day, Little Miss Busy thought about a day off.まず計画を立てて、 それから荷造りをして、 言葉も話せないと駄目よね。
First, make a plan, and from there, pack a bag, and it would be bad if you can't speak the language.出かける場所の本もたくさん読まなくちゃ。
And she'd have to read a lot of books in where she's going out to!なんて忙しいのかしら。
How busy will she be, I wonder?翌週、 リトルミスビジーは体調も回復して休暇の準備は万端でした。
The following week, Little Miss Busy recovered, and was all prepared for her holiday!これからは、 働き過ぎないで休み上手になってね。
From now on, don't work too much, and become good at taking days off, okay?リトルミスビジーは忙しく働いていることが何よりも大好きでした。
