Peter Pan — Page 1

达林夫妇离开家后，三个孩子床边的夜灯继续明亮地燃烧着，片刻之间没有熄灭。

For a moment after Mr. and Mrs. Darling left the house the night-lights by the beds of the three children continued to burn clearly.

这些夜灯真是可爱极了，人们忍不住希望它们能够保持清醒，亲眼看见彼得的到来；

They were awfully nice little night-lights, and one cannot help wishing that they could have kept awake to see Peter;

但温迪的灯眨了眨，打了个大大的哈欠，另外两盏灯也跟着打起哈欠来，还没等它们把嘴闭上，三盏灯全都熄灭了。

but Wendy's light blinked and gave such a yawn that the other two yawned also, and before they could close their mouths all the three went out.

房间里现在出现了另一道光，比那些夜灯亮上千倍，就在我们说这话的工夫，它已经翻遍了育儿室里所有的抽屉，四处寻找彼得的影子，还把衣柜搜了个遍，将每一个口袋都翻了个底朝天。

There was another light in the room now, a thousand times brighter than the night-lights, and in the time we have taken to say this, it had been in all the drawers in the nursery, looking for Peter's shadow, rummaged the wardrobe and turned every pocket inside out.

它其实并不是一道光；它发出这样的光，是因为它飞快地闪动着，但当它停下来的那一瞬间，你就能看出那是一个仙子，个头不比你的手掌大，却还在不断地长大。

It was not really a light; it made this light by flashing about so quickly, but when it came to rest for a second you saw it was a fairy, no longer than your hand, but still growing.

她是一个名叫叮叮铃的女孩，身穿一件用镂空叶子精心裁制的低胸方领衣裙，她的身姿在衣裙的衬托下显得格外美丽动人。

It was a girl called Tinker Bell exquisitely gowned in a skeleton leaf, cut low and square, through which her figure could be seen to the best advantage.

她略微有些丰满。

She was slightly inclined to embonpoint.

仙子刚刚进来没多久，窗户便被小星星们的呼吸吹开了，彼得跳了进来。

A moment after the fairy's entrance the window was blown open by the breathing of the little stars, and Peter dropped in.

他一路上抱着叮叮铃飞了一段路，手上还沾满了仙尘。

He had carried Tinker Bell part of the way, and his hand was still messy with the fairy dust.
