Peter Pan — Page 8
他低声对她说："我难道不是个奇才，哦，我真是个奇才！"虽然她也这么认为，但她真心庆幸，为了他的名誉，除了她自己，没有人听到他说这话。
"Am I not a wonder, oh, I am a wonder!" he whispered to her, and though she thought so also, she was really glad for the sake of his reputation that no one heard him except herself.
他示意她仔细听。
He signed to her to listen.
两个海盗非常好奇，想知道是什么事把他们的船长带到他们这里来，但他把头枕在钩子上坐着，神情深沉忧郁。
The two pirates were very curious to know what had brought their captain to them, but he sat with his head on his hook in a position of profound melancholy.
"船长，一切都好吗？"他们胆怯地问道，但他只是发出一声空洞的呻吟作为回答。
"Captain, is all well?" they asked timidly, but he answered with a hollow moan.
"他在叹气，"斯米说。
"He sighs," said Smee.
"他又叹气了，"斯塔基说。
"He sighs again," said Starkey.
"他又叹了第三口气，"斯米说。
"And yet a third time he sighs," said Smee.
终于，他激动地开口说话了。
Then at last he spoke passionately.
"游戏结束了，"他喊道，"那些孩子找到了一个母亲。"
"The game's up," he cried, "those boys have found a mother."
温迪虽然心中恐惧，却不禁因自豪而挺起了胸膛。
Affrighted though she was, Wendy swelled with pride.
"哦，多么倒霉的一天！"斯塔基喊道。
"O evil day!" cried Starkey.
"母亲是什么？"无知的斯米问道。
"What's a mother?" asked the ignorant Smee.
温迪震惊得叫出声来："他竟然不知道！"从此以后，她总觉得，如果可以养一个海盗当宠物，斯米一定是她的不二之选。
Wendy was so shocked that she exclaimed. "He doesn't know!" and always after this she felt that if you could have a pet pirate Smee would be her one.
彼得把她拉到水下，因为虎克猛地站了起来，喊道："那是什么声音？"
Peter pulled her beneath the water, for Hook had started up, crying, "What was that?"
"我什么也没听见，"斯塔基说，他举起灯笼照向水面，海盗们望去，看见了一幅奇异的景象。那正是我之前告诉过你们的那个巢，漂浮在泻湖上，那只永无鸟就坐在上面。
"I heard nothing," said Starkey, raising the lantern over the waters, and as the pirates looked they saw a strange sight. It was the nest I have told you of, floating on the lagoon, and the Never bird was sitting on it.
"你看，"虎克回答斯米的问题说，"那就是母亲。多么好的一堂课！"
"See," said Hook in answer to Smee's question, "that is a mother. What a lesson!
