If you get lost in the wild,
Don't panic,
Nature has many natural compasses,
Will help you find your way.
The sun is a faithful guide,
It gives you directions in the sky:
In the south at noon,
The shadow on the ground points to the north.
Polaris is a street lamp,
It always hangs high in the north.
If you can recognize it,
You won't break in in the dark.
If it rains,
Dashu will also come to help.
The thick side of the leaves is the south,
The side with sparse branches and leaves is the north.
Snow is particularly afraid of the sun.
Snow in the ditch will show you the way.
See which side of the snow melts fast and which side melts slowly.
You can tell the difference between north and south.
If you get lost in the wild,
Don't panic,
Nature has many natural compasses,
As long as you observe carefully and think more.
