複製編輯我是一個小氣球  
喜歡交朋友  
我的個性很溫柔  
忍氣忍很久  
生氣的人來找我  
替他把氣受  
心事憂愁告訴我  
秘密我來守

English (singable version)

css複製編輯I am just a little balloon,  
Loving friends beneath the moon.  
Soft and gentle, calm I stay,  
Holding anger far away.  
Come to me when you’re upset,  
Tell me things you can’t forget.  
Whispers kept within my heart,  
Secrets safe in every part.

  • 故事 Story

中文

從前有一個小氣球,他很喜歡交朋友。
小氣球的個性很溫柔,如果有人生氣了去找他,把氣吹到他的肚子裡去,他就把肚子脹起來替人受氣。
如果有人要他保守秘密,他就會一直忍著、忍著,忍到人把他鬆開為止。

有一天,馬跑去找他,因為牛借了他的角都不還。
氣球說:「你有什麼心事告訴我。」
馬說:「牛小弟為了參加選美,向我借了角卻不還。」
氣球說:「那你一定很生氣吧!讓我替你把怒氣收起來好了。」
馬說:「謝謝你,但是我現在沒有角,如果人家知道了一定會笑我的。」
氣球說:「我不會告訴別人的。」

過了幾天,來了一隻哈巴狗。
哈巴狗說:「我在院子裡埋了幾根老骨頭,請你不要告訴別人。」

有一天,馬和哈巴狗想去看氣球,
他們發現氣球變得好大、好長。

原來忍氣可以使人長大,
替人保守秘密實在是偉大。


English

Once upon a time, there was a little balloon who loved making friends.
The balloon was gentle in nature. Whenever someone felt angry, they would blow their anger into the balloon’s belly, and the balloon would hold it inside, keeping the person calm.
If someone needed the balloon to keep a secret, it would quietly hold it, patiently waiting until the person was ready to let it go.

One day, a horse came to the balloon, upset because a cow had borrowed his horns and never returned them.
The balloon asked, “Do you have something on your mind? Tell me.”
The horse said, “Little Cow borrowed my horns to join a beauty contest and hasn’t given them back.”
The balloon replied, “You must be really angry! Let me hold your anger for you.”
“Thank you,” said the horse, “but now I have no horns. If others find out, they’ll laugh at me.”
“Don’t worry,” said the balloon, “I won’t tell anyone.”

A few days later, a pug came by and whispered,
“I buried some old bones in the yard. Please don’t tell anyone.”

Later, the horse and the pug came to visit the balloon and were surprised:
The balloon had grown so big and tall!

They realized—holding in anger helps one grow;
keeping secrets for others is truly noble.
