袋鼠谷（2022）

玛拉历经九九八十一难 终于抵达了生命中一个重要里程碑
Mala has beaten the odds and reached an important milestone.
这是她离开育儿袋整整一周年的日子
Her first full year outside the pouch.
今年的新一代袋鼠宝宝走出了育儿袋
This season’s new crop of joeys have emerged,
蹒跚地尝试他们的第一次蹦跳
trying out their first awkward hops,
就像玛拉一年前的样子
just as Mala once did.
时间仿佛过去了好久好久
It seems like a lifetime ago.
有一天 玛拉也会把她学到的东西 教给她自己的宝宝
Someday, Mala will teach her own joeys the lessons she has learned.
那些千百万年来从未改变过的
The rituals and ways of kangaroos
袋鼠的生存方式与习俗
that have remained unchanged for eons
还将在这片 神奇美丽的秘密山谷中代代相传
in this secret valley of great wonder and magic.
