Peter Pan — Page 10
狡黠的孩子问道:"它飞翔的方式,和你小时候飞翔的方式一样吗?"
"Does it fly," asks the artful child, "the way you flew when you were a little girl?"
"我飞翔的方式?你知道吗,简,我有时候真想不起来自己是否真的飞过。"
"The way I flew? Do you know, Jane, I sometimes wonder whether I ever did really fly."
"飞过的,你飞过。"
"Yes, you did."
"那些亲爱的旧日时光,那时我还能飞!"
"The dear old days when I could fly!"
"妈妈,你现在为什么不能飞了?"
"Why can't you fly now, mother?"
"因为我长大了,亲爱的。人们长大后就忘记了飞翔的方法。"
"Because I am grown up, dearest. When people grow up they forget the way."
"为什么他们会忘记方法?"
"Why do they forget the way?"
"因为他们不再快乐、纯真、无忧无虑了。只有快乐、纯真、无忧无虑的人才能飞翔。"
"Because they are no longer gay and innocent and heartless. It is only the gay and innocent and heartless who can fly."
"什么是快乐、纯真、无忧无虑?我真希望自己也是快乐、纯真、无忧无虑的。"
"What is gay and innocent and heartless? I do wish I were gay and innocent and heartless."
或者也许温迪承认她确实看见了什么。
Or perhaps Wendy admits she does see something.
"我真的相信,"她说,"就是这间育儿室。"
"I do believe," she says, "that it is this nursery."
"我也这么认为,"简说,"继续讲吧。"
"I do believe it is," says Jane. "Go on."
她们现在开始讲述那个伟大的夜间冒险,那晚彼得飞进来寻找他的影子。
They are now embarked on the great adventure of the night when Peter flew in looking for his shadow.
"那个傻小子,"温迪说,"试图用肥皂把影子粘上去,当他粘不上的时候就哭了起来,哭声把我弄醒了,我替他把影子缝上去了。"
"The foolish fellow," says Wendy, "tried to stick it on with soap, and when he could not he cried, and that woke me, and I sewed it on for him."
"你漏掉了一段,"简打断道,她现在对这个故事比她妈妈还熟悉,"当你看到他坐在地板上哭泣时,你说了什么?"
"You have missed a bit," interrupts Jane, who now knows the story better than her mother. "When you saw him sitting on the floor crying, what did you say?"
"我在床上坐起来说,'孩子,你为什么哭泣?'
"I sat up in bed and I said, 'Boy, why are you crying?
