Title: Said the Robin to the Sparrow
Content: The poem is about a conversation between a robin and a sparrow, who wonder about the worries of humans and conclude that this is because humans do not have a "heavenly father" who cares for them as he cares for the birds.
Author: The poem is attributed to Elizabeth Cheney.

“I should really like to know
Why these anxious human beings
Rush about and worry so!”
Said the Sparrow to the Robin,
“Friend, I think that it must be
That they have no heavenly Father
Such as cares for you and me!”

Übersetzung:
Sagte das Rotkehlchen zum Spatz:
„Ich möchte wirklich gerne wissen,
warum diese ängstlichen Menschen
so eilig herumlaufen und sich so viele Sorgen machen!“
Der Spatz sagte zum Rotkehlchen:
„Freund, ich glaube, es liegt daran,
dass sie keinen himmlischen Vater haben,
der sich um dich und mich kümmert!“
