汉斯说:'我非常愿意;但是你对我这么好,我必须告诉你一件事——你拖着那些银子走路可是件苦差事。'

'With all my heart,' said Hans: 'but as you are so kind to me, I must tell you one thing--you will have a weary task to draw that silver about with you.'

然而,那骑马人下了马,取走了银子,扶汉斯上马,把缰绳交到他一只手上,把鞭子交到另一只手上,说道:'当你想跑得很快时,大声咂咂嘴,喊一声"驾!"'

However, the horseman got off, took the silver, helped Hans up, gave him the bridle into one hand and the whip into the other, and said, 'When you want to go very fast, smack your lips loudly together, and cry "Jip!"'

汉斯坐在马背上,心里乐开了花,挺直了身子,张开双肘,脚尖朝外,甩起鞭子,欢快地骑马而去,一会儿吹着欢快的曲子,一会儿唱起歌来:

Hans was delighted as he sat on the horse, drew himself up, squared his elbows, turned out his toes, cracked his whip, and rode merrily off, one minute whistling a merry tune, and another singing,

'无忧无虑,不愁明日!我们欢笑嬉闹,放声高歌!'

'No care and no sorrow, A fig for the morrow! We'll laugh and be merry, Sing neigh down derry!'

过了一会儿,他想跑快一点,于是咂了咂嘴,喊了声"驾!"那马立刻飞奔起来;还没等汉斯回过神来,他已经被甩了下去,仰面躺在路边。

After a time he thought he should like to go a little faster, so he smacked his lips and cried 'Jip!' Away went the horse full gallop; and before Hans knew what he was about, he was thrown off, and lay on his back by the road-side.

那匹马本来就要跑掉了,幸好一个赶着一头母牛路过的牧羊人拦住了它。

His horse would have ran off, if a shepherd who was coming by, driving a cow, had not stopped it.

汉斯很快清醒过来,重新站起身,又懊恼又沮丧,对牧羊人说:'这骑马可不是闹着玩的,要是一个人倒霉骑上这么一头畜生,它绊蹄子把人摔下来,好像要摔断脖子似的。'

Hans soon came to himself, and got upon his legs again, sadly vexed, and said to the shepherd, 'This riding is no joke, when a man has the luck to get upon a beast like this that stumbles and flings him off as if it would break his neck.
