When the autumn winds send a chill up your spine, and the migratory birds are southbound again, and the air is filled with the white flowers of the mang grass, adult fireflies which have mated and produced eggs flicker, and expire one after another, while the next generation waits in the eggs or the cocoon for their turns to be born.
當秋風送爽，候鳥南飛，空氣中飄滿五節芒白色的花海，交配、產卵後的成螢先後「凋零」，新一代就在卵或蛹中，等待再一次的新生。
