The Boy who cried Wolf 2

He tried talking to the sheep.
And how are you today?
   Baa-aa(メーメー)
But they didn't have much to say.

"Nobody ever comes up here,” moaned Sam.
"Nothing ever happens.”
One day, he had an idea.
 I could make something happen.

ever:これまで
moan:不平、愚痴を言う。
Everyone ran up the hill with him.
 Harry!
 My sheep!

Puffing and panting, they reached the meadow.
Of course, there was no wolf.
 All that way, for nothing.
The sheep were quietly eating the grass.

Puffing and panting:息を切らし、喘ぎながら
Of course:もちろん
▸ come all this way for nothing
     はるばるやってきて徒労に終わる
▸ Your efforts won't be for nothing.
     君の努力はむだにはならないよ
The villagers were angry, but sam just laughed.
 That was funny.
 No it wasn’t. 

A few days later, Sam was bored again.
He ran down the hill to the village.
 Help Help!
 what's the matter now?
 come quickly!
"A wolf!" he shouted,
"A wolf has come out of the forest!”

        matter:事件、問題
