一只螳螂胆子大，
大车来了也不怕，
它高高举起两把钳，
对准车轮猛劈下。
车子高高轮巨大，
车轮滚滚朝前轧，
无奈螳臂太脆弱，
一下压成了烂泥巴。
大胆狂妄的小螳螂，
给世界留下个大笑话。
不自量力太愚蠢，
谁也不要仿效它。
A Mantis Trying to Obstruct a Chariot
A Mantis was very brave。A chariot was coming and it was not afraid。It raised its two clamps high and struck heavily against the wheel of the chariot。The chariot was high and the wheels were big，and they were rolling，rolling and heading along。Too weak，alas，were the mantis'arms，and the mantis was then crushed to dust。Rash and imprudent the mantis was though，it left the world a big laughing-stock。Being self-important was a silly thing to do。No one would be foolish enough to follow suit。
