Pål kunna vel på høna fornemma, at reven va'ute med rompa so lang. Kluk, kluk, kluk, sa høna på haugjen. Pål'n sprang og rengde med augom, no tør eg ikkje koma heim åt å mor. Og ikkje åt å mor, og ikkje åt'n far, og ikkje åt å søster, og ikkje åt'n bror. no må eg nok reise fra heile den gard. 保羅的小雞放養在山丘上 小雞快速向山上跑去 保羅知道小雞在想什麼 狐狸夾著牠的長尾巴等在外面 山上的小雞咕咕叫著 保羅翻了翻眼睛，跑走了 「我現在不敢回家找媽媽了！」 我不敢去找媽媽、爸爸、姐姐或哥哥 現在，我不得不離開整個農場  less
