Cowboys ride on the backs of oxen, and the sound of singing echoes in the forest.

Suddenly want to catch the song of the tree, immediately stop singing and stand beside the tree without saying a word.

Translation:

The shepherd boy rode on the back of the cow, and the loud song echoed in the forest.

Suddenly, I wanted to catch the cicada in singing in the trees, so I stopped singing and stood silently under the tree.
