Sylvis L. Davies(Mother): You should have been in bed half an hour ago, Yound Men. I am afraid ive grown hopelessly too lax in my own discipline. (孩子们，你们半小时之前就应该上床休息了。我怕我平时太纵容他们了。) J.M. Barrie: Nonesense, young boys should never be sent to bed. They always wake up a day older. And then before you know it, they are grown. (不要这样说，孩子们不该被强迫去睡觉。当他们醒来的时候又老了一天。 忽然之间，你就发现他们已经长大了。) Peter D.: What did you bring me over here for? it is absurb. it is JUST a dog. (带我来这里干什么?荒谬，这只是一只狗) J.M. Barrie: Just a dog? JUST? Porthos, dont listen to him. (walk near Peter) Porthos dreams of being a bear. And you want to dash those dreams by saying hes just a dog? What a horrible candle-snuffing word! Thats like saying He cant climb that moutain, hes just a man Or Thats not a diamond, its just a rock. Just? (只是一只狗?只是?porthos，不要听他说。Porthos一直想成为一只熊。然后你却无情地说 他只是一只狗，把他的梦想打得支离破碎。这是多么伤心、扼腕的话语啊。那就像是说， 他不能翻越那座山，他只是一个人或者那不是钻石，只是一颗石头。 只是?) Peter D.: Fine then, Turn him into a bear, if you can. (好啊，你能的话，就把它变成熊啊!) Peter D.: What did you and Mother decide to tell us this time? Its only a chest cold? (这一次有你和妈妈有打算要告诉我们什么?只是着凉了吗?) J.M. Barrie: We havnt decided anything. (我们还没有决定。) Peter D.: Stop lying to me. I am sick of grown-ups lying to me. (不要再说谎了。我讨厌大人对我说谎。) J.M. Barrie: i am not lying to you. I dont know whats wrong. (我没有骗你。我也不知道哪里不对。) Peter D.: Father might take us fishing thats what she said, in just a few weeks. And he died the next morning. (她告诉我，爸爸可能几个星期后就带我们去钓鱼。然后他第二天就死了。) J.M. Barrie: It wasnt a lie, Peter. That was your mothers hope. (这并不是一个谎言，peter，这也是你妈妈的心愿啊。) Peter D: He barely moved for a week... but i started planning our fishing trip. (他一个星期都没有动静了。而我却开始计划我们的钓鱼之旅。) J.M. Barrie: I will never lie to you. i promise you that. (我保证我不会骗你。) Peter D.: NO. All youll do is teaching me is to make up stupid stories and pretending that things arent happenning until... i am not blind. i wont be made a fool. (不!你只会叫我编造一些无聊的故事，然后假想一切都安好，直到 我不是瞎子，我也不要被当作傻瓜了。) Mrs Snow: i am afraid its all the work of the ticking crocodile, isnt it? Time is chasing after all of us, isnt that right? (我想是那鳄鱼的功劳，不是吗?时间一直在追赶着我们，不是吗?) J.M Barrie: Sit down, Peter. (坐下吧。) Peter D.: Mother pasted it back together after i ruined it. and then i saw the play. i just started writing and i havent been able to stop. (我把本子毁了后，妈妈都把它粘好了。我看过那场戏了。 我又开始写了，我会继续写下去，不会半途而废。 J.M. Barrie: She would be very pleased to know that. Listen, ive just spoken to your grandmother and i am staying for good. (她知道你这么做，一定很高兴。我刚刚跟你祖母说了，我会永远和你们在一起。) Peter D.: I am sorry i was so horrible. (抱歉我刚刚态度那么差。) J.M. Barrie: Dont worry. (别放在心上。) Peter D.: its just... i thought shed always be here. (我只是以为，她会永远陪伴着我们。) J.M. Barrie: So did I. But in fact, She is because shes on every page of your imagination. |
