寓言故事双语:在沙漠中的小花

2017-03-14

This happened many many summers ago.

There was a young flower in the desert where all was dry and sad looking...It was growing by itself...enjoying every day...

and saying to the sun "When shall I be grown up"? And the sun would say "Be patient"---Each time I touch you, you grow a little"...

And she was so pleased. Because she would have a chance to bring beauty to this corner of sand...

And this is all she wanted to do---bring a little bit of beauty to this world.

这个故事发生在很多很多个夏天以前。

在一个周围充满着干燥与衰落景象的沙漠中,有一朵小花正绽放着……她孤单地生长着……快乐地过着每一天……

太阳回答说:“不要着急——我的光芒每接触你一次,你就会长大一点儿……”她对太阳说:“我什么时候才能长大呀?”

小花听了非常高兴。因为她有机会为这片沙漠增添一处绚丽的景色了……

这就是她梦寐以求的——为这个世界带来一点儿美丽。

One day the hunter came by---and stepped on her.---

She was going to die---and she felt so sad. Not because she was dying ---but because she would not have a chance to bring a little bit of beauty to this corner of the desert.

The great spirit saw her, and was listening.---Indeed, he said ...She should be living...And he reached down and touched her---and gave her life.

And she grew up to be a beautiful flower...and this corner of the desert became so beautiful because of her.

一天,一个猎人经过这里——并从她身上踏了过去。——

她即将死了——她感到十分悲伤。她悲伤的原因,并不是因为她将要死去,而是因为她再也没有机会为这片沙漠增添一处绚丽的景色了。

一个伟大的精灵看到了她,并听到了她的哭诉。——事实上,他说……她应该活下去……于是,他来到沙漠上抚摸着她,并赋予了她生命。

后来,她终于长大成了一朵美丽的花儿……这片沙漠也因她的存在而变得格外美丽。
