Happiness is found in fast-food places. I wish I could go more often, but in most cases It's a special treat worth the wait: Meals at McDonald's are a part of fate.

快樂是在快餐店裡。
我真希望能多去幾次，可是通常呢
它是值得等待的特別樂事：
吃麥當勞是命運的一部分吧。
"innocence" 天真無邪；無罪。"ode" 頌歌；賦。"treat" 難得的樂事；特別款待。小孩子沒有經濟能力去麥當勞，只能盼望(等待)父母帶他去(有人請客)。"fate" 命運；結局。
Happiness is found in crispy french fries. Hot and salty, they always catch my eye; It's hard to savor the taste when I eat Them so quickly, but they can't be beat.

Them so quickly, but they can't be beat.
快樂是在酥脆的炸薯條裡。
又燙又鹹，它們總是惹我注意；
實在不容易嚐出味道來，當我吃得
太快時，可是它們真是美味無窮。
"crispy" 酥脆的。"savor" 品嚐；欣賞。"beat" 打敗；勝過。
I'd like to put in a good word too For crunchy chicken nuggets that are as true As cool, sugary milkshakes in causing happiness. Fast food places: there's nothing amiss.

我也想說些好話
為吃起來嘎吱嘎吱的雞塊
它們跟又涼又甜的奶昔一樣讓人快樂。
快餐店哪：十全十美耶。
"crunchy" 發嘎吱嘎吱聲的。"nugget" 小硬塊(如金塊或礦塊)。"amiss" 不恰當的；有缺陷的。
有人說快餐店賣的是垃圾食物，可是它們帶給作者這麼多快樂，所以作者一點也不覺得有什麼不妥。
