夸父逐日

夸kuā父fù是shì个gè巨人jù rén，他tā想xiǎng追zhuī上shàng太阳tài yang，看kàn它tā落luò在zài什么shén me地方dì fang。

Kuafu the giant resolved to chase the sun to where it sets.

他tā迈mài开kāi大dà步bù追zhuī太阳tài yang，追zhuī得de又yòu热rè又yòu渴kě。

He ran great strides after it, growing burning thirsty.

他tā喝hē干gān了le黄huáng河hé，喝hē干gān了le渭wèi河hé，还是hái shi渴kě，想xiǎng去qù北方běi fāng喝hē大dà湖hú的de水shuǐ。

He drank the Yellow River dry, then the Wei, still thirsty, he headed for the great northern lake.

半路bàn lù上shàng夸kuā父fù渴kě死sǐ了le，扔rēng下xià的de手shǒu杖zhàng变成biàn chéng了le一yí片piàn桃táo林lín。虽然suī rán没有méi yǒu追zhuī到dào太阳tài yang，他tā的de勇气yǒng qì一直yì zhí流传liú chuán下来xià lai。

He died of thirst on the way; his fallen staff became a forest of peach trees. He never caught the sun, but his courage is remembered.
