当亨利·范·克里夫的灵魂越过了天人分界 As Hevry Van Cleve's soul passed over the Great Divide
他意识到 自己的下一站极不可能是天堂 He realized that it was extremely unlikely that his next stop could be Heaven
因此 他很哲学地 将自己奉献到无数人经常叫他去的地方 And so philosophically he presented himself where innumerable peaple had so often told him to go
你好吗 范·克里夫先生 下午好 阁下 How do you do Mr Van Cleve Good afternoon Your Excellency
真是麻烦你接待我了 小事一桩 Very kind of you to receive me Not at all

我相信人人都挺尽兴 I believe everybody had a good time
本来会是一场理想的葬礼… It would have been an ideal funeral
要不是库珀库珀夫人 一位家庭友人… if Mrs Cooper Cooper a friend of the family
自愿献唱一首《完美一天的结束》 hadn't volunteered to sing "The End of a Perfect Day "
你看 我一生都成功避开了库珀库珀夫人的花腔女高音 You see all my life I had succeeded in avoiding Mrs Cooper Cooper's coloratura
这一回无疑是她的复仇 and this undoubtedly was her revenge
范·克里夫先生 看得出你有一双敏感、有教养的耳朵 Mr Van Cleve I can see that you have a sensitive cultivated ear
哦 谢谢 Oh thank you
那我得警告你 Then let me warn you

我亲爱的范·克里夫先生 去地狱的护照可不是泛泛一说就能发的 My dear Mr Van Cleve a passport to hell is not issued on generalities

而我肯定它们依然美丽如昔 And I'm sure they're still as beautiful
哟 亨利 我就让你自己评判啦 Well Henry I'll let you be the judge of that
那些东西最好留给记忆 Those things are better left to memory
但我必须承认你开始让我有兴趣了 范·克里夫先生 But I must admit you're beginning to interest me Mr Van Cleve
我想我可以分出时间听你的故事 I think I can spare the time to listen to your story
谢谢 阁下 请坐下 Thank you Your Excellency Please sit down
也许跟你讲我一生故事的最好方式 Perhaps the best way to tell you the story of my life
就是跟你讲我生命中的女人们 is to tell you about the women in my life
嗯 我们从第一个女人说起 Well let's start with the first woman
我母亲 My mother
一位可爱的女士 但却有偏见 A lovely lady but prejudiced
她以为我很优秀 She thought I was wonderful
她是我欺骗的第一个女人 She was the first woman I ever fooled

但我们去公园的时候呢 But the minute we got to the park
你好 贝蒂莉亚 Hello Bedelia
哎哟 这不是帕特里克吗 Well if it isn't Patrick himself
喂 闭嘴 你这小淘气 Ah shut up you nasty little brat
难怪我成了愤世嫉俗派 No wonder I became a cynic
我的下一个教训来自小玛丽 My next lesson came from little Mary
你好 玛丽 别跟我说话 亨利·范·克里夫 Hello Mary Don't speak to me Henry Van Cleve
你是坏男孩 我妈妈说不应该跟坏男孩说话 You're a bad boy and my mother says I shouldn't talk to bad boys
我打赌你不知道我在这盒子里放了什么 I bet you don't know what I've got in this box
我没有兴趣 亨利·范·克里夫 And I'm not interested Henry Van Cleve
那我就不告诉你是一只甲虫 Then I won't tell you it's a beetle
一只甲虫 A beetle

你是说这只你也想要 You mean you want this one too
亨利·范·克里夫 Henry Van Cleve
你以为我是那种女孩 会拿走男孩最后一只甲虫吗 Do you think I'm the kind of girl that would take a boy's last beetle
噢 没关系的 你可以拿走 Aw that's all right You can have it
谢谢 亨利 Thank you Henry
现在 如果你愿意 可以跟我一起走到那个转角 Now if you want to you can walk with me to the corner
从那时起 我认清了一件事 From that moment on one thing was clear to me
如果你想赢得一个女孩 你得有很多甲虫 If you want to win a girl you have to have lots of beetles
我成长迅速 纽约也是如此 I was growing rapidly and so was New York
没错 纽约正在变成大都会 Yes New York was becoming cosmopolitan
没有哪一家会认为不雇法国女佣是件时髦事 and no household was considered fashionable without a French maid
所以 有一天 一辆第五大道的长途马车停在我们房前 So one day a Fifth Avenue coach stopped in front of our house

来吧 亲爱的法语 èoute mon chèri
在你爸爸的时代 爸爸吻了妈妈 然后就结婚 In your papa's time papa kiss mama and then marry
但现在是1887年 But this is 1887
自行车的时代 打字机已经到来 很快人人都会用电话说话 Time of bicycle The typewriter has arrivè Soon everybody speak over the telephone
而且大家对接吻的价值有了新看法 And people have new idea of value of kiss
那在昨天是坏事 今日却有了很多乐趣 What was bad yesterday is lot of fun today
在法国有一种了不起的说法 There is a wonderful saying in France
"Les baisers sont comme des bonbons
qu'on mange parce qu'ils sont bons "
意思是 亲吻就像糖果 This mean kiss is like candy
你吃糖果只是为了那个美味 You eat candy only for the beautiful taste and
要吃糖果 这个理由就够了 this is enough reason to eat candy
你是说 我能亲吻女孩一次 Y You mean I can kiss a girl once
10次 20次 而且不用负责 10 times 20 times And no obligation
听着 你是在跟我说实话 还是想保住自己的工作 Now listen are you telling me the truth or just trying to keep your job

如果在1887年事情是这个样子的 If that's the way things are in 1887
你认为1888年会发生什么 what do you think's gonna happen in 1888
啊哈 咱们就把它当作我们第一节法语课的主题吧 Aha We make that the subject of our first French lesson
再见 先生法语 Au revoir monsieur
母亲 怎么 我的宝贝 Mother Yes my baby
那女孩值外加6美元 That girl is worth the extra six dollars
范·克里夫全家的骄傲是我的堂兄阿尔伯特 The pride of all the Van Cleves was my cousin Albert
他就是父母梦想的完全满足 He was the fulfillment of a parent's dream
永远是班级头名 从未往窗户里扔过一块石头 Always the highest in his class Never had he thrown a stone into a window
也从未往他老师的裙撑里放过老鼠 Nor did he ever put a mouse in his teacher's bustle
他的耳朵永远干净 His ears were always clean
我想这能给你一个阿尔伯特的大概印象了 This I think will give you a rough idea of Albert
而我从未忘记我15岁生日的那天早上 And I'll never forget the morning of my 15th birthday
礼物在客厅里等着我 The presents were waiting for me in the living room

这孩子大概在说些什么 What does the boy seem to be saying
哦 但愿我知道就好了 兰道夫 Well if I only knew Randolph
他在说法语 只说法语 法语 He's talking French Nothing but French French
哦 兰道夫 我们的孩子 神志不清说外国话 Oh Randolph Our boy delirious in a foreign language
伯莎 伯莎 这是紧急情况 Now Bertha Bertha This is an emergency
什么事我们都得一步一步来 下一步是搞清楚这孩子在说什么 We must do everything step by step The next move is to find out what the boy is saying
噢 弗洛格德尔 Uh Uh Flogdell
是 先生 叫女教师立刻到亨利主人的房间来 Yes sir Tell Mademoiselle to come to Master Henry's room immediately
好的 先生 Very good sir
但愿爷爷允许我抹一点蒜在他胸口就好了 If only Grandpa would let me rub just a bit of garlic on his little chest

现在只有一件事可做 伯莎…咬紧牙关 Now now There's only one thing to do Bertha keep a stiff upper lip
可那对这可怜的中毒孩子没有帮助 But that won't help that poor poisoned boy
要是照我的办法 我知道该怎么做 If I had my way I know what I'd do
一大杯冷水泼孩子脸上 我看他就会开始说英语了 A big glass of cold water right in that boy's face and I think he'd start talking English

我想知道他看见什么了 I wonder what he sees
对 我想知道 Yes I wonder
我病得很厉害法语 Oh je suis si malade
我的胃疼得厉害法语 Mon estomac me fait si mal
他清醒吗 这些话有什么意义吗 Is he clear Does it make any sense

兰道夫 别这么严厉 Randolph Don't be harsh
抱歉我有些失态 但形势迫人 I'm sorry if I seem to have lost my temper but the occasion is a trying one
如果你能告诉我们这孩子在说什么 也许能帮我们了解情况 If you could tell us what the child is saying it might help us to meet the situation
一定是传染了 Must be contagious disease
儿子 跟我出来一下 Son step out with me a moment
早上好 早 阿尔伯特 Good morning Morning Albert

毕竟 我不是学医的 兰道夫 你多大了 After all I'm not a man of medicine Randolph how old are you
好奇怪的问题 父亲 我43岁 What an odd question Father I'm 43
那么 我想你绝对够年龄 该了解生活真相了 Well I think you are definitely old enough to be told the facts of life
你想说什么 父亲 儿子 别拿那双惊奇的大眼睛看我 What are you driving at Father Now Son don't look at me with those big wandering eyes
虽然会让我心碎 但我不得不打破你的童年幻想 It breaks my heart but I'll have to shatter your childhood illusions
兰道夫 我的儿子 世上没有圣诞老人 Randolph my son there is no Santy Claus
还有你的那个孩子… And that child of your…
听着 你真的不知道他是怎么回事吗 Listen don't you really know what's the matter with him
你给我出去 伯莎 怎么了 You get out of here Bertha what is it
兰道夫 马上叫警察 对 叫警察 Randolph call the police at once Yes Call the police
安静 安静 我们不需要警察 Quiet Quiet We don't need the police
伯莎 母亲 我希望有人抽空给我解释这是怎么回事 Bertha Mother I wish someone would take the time to explain to me what this is all about

再会 Au revoir
谁能告诉我这一出跟我们的小亨利有什么关系 我依然感激不尽 I still would appreciate it if someone would tell me what all this has to do with our little Henry
幸运的是 兰道夫叔叔 法语一直是我最喜欢的课程之一 Fortunately Uncle Randolph French always being one of my favorite subjects
我能听懂亨利和女教师之间不可思议的对话 I was able to understand the incredible conversation between Henry and Mademoiselle
我…不知道从哪开始 好了好了 I uh don't know how to begin All right all right
亨利喝了一杯葡萄酒 我们都知道的 Henry had a glass of wine We all know that
亨利 喝醉了 Henry Intoxicated
就我无意中听到的 是在昨晚大约十点 From what I overheard at or about 10:00 last night
亨利和这位…这位年轻的外国女人溜出房子 Henry and this…this foreign young woman slipped out of the house
在此之前 亨利不妥当地拿走了他父亲的衣服 Before doing this however Henry wrongfully took possession of his father's dress clothes
包括20美元 兰道夫叔叔粗心大意留在口袋里的 including $20 which Uncle Randolph was negligent enough to leave in his pocket
想象一下 他们去了德尔摩尼法国酒店 Imagine They went to Delmonico's
他们玩得高兴吗 他们喝了香槟 Did they have a good time They drank champagne
我们的小宝贝喝香槟 Our little baby drank champagne
谢谢 阿尔伯特 但这还不是全部 爷爷 Well thank you Albert But that's not all Grandfather
似乎 照我所了解的来看… It seems from what I could gather
阿斯特布克家的阿斯特布克太太… that Mrs Asterbrook of the Asterbrooks
正坐在邻桌 who was sitting at an adjoining table
她极为愤恨 因为亨利往她低胸衣里扔硬币… resented bitterly the idea of Henry dropping a nickel into her dèolletage
还跟经理抱怨 因为阿斯特布克太太身上没有掉出巧克力条来 and complaining to the management because no chocolate bar dropped out of Mrs Asterbrook
阿斯特布克太太 我还怎么能面对她 Mrs Asterbrook How can I ever face her
多么丢人啊 What a disgrace
我要去给那孩子一点教训 I'm going to teach that boy a lesson
对 那是他活该…那样子乱扔硬币 Yes that's what he deserves throwing nickels around like that
以我对阿斯特布克家的了解 我现在就能告诉你们 Knowing the Asterbrooks I can tell you right now
那枚硬币是再也见不着了 we'll never see that nickel again
我下决心了 那孩子要被打屁股 狠狠打 I have reached my decision That boy is going to be spanked and severely
兰道夫 不要伤他 请不要伤他 Oh Randolph don't hurt him Please don't hurt him
不不 兰道夫 求你了 他还是个小孩儿 No no Randolph Please please He's such a baby
我推测不会有生日庆祝会了 恐怕没有了 Well I assume there will be no further birthday celebration I'm afraid not
我相信我将非常有益地利用这段时间 那我就说再见了 I believe I can utilize this time very beneficially so I'll say good bye
再见 阿尔伯特 你真让家族沾光 Good bye Albert You're a real credit to the family
谢谢 爷爷 Thank you Grandfather
这是个周日早上 我26岁生日那天 It was a Sunday morning the day of my 26th birthday
唉 这孩子 Oh that boy

哦 兰道夫 兰道夫 他能去哪儿 Oh Randolph Randolph where can he be Where can he be
伯莎 我很愿意你一点安慰 Now now Bertha I'd like to give you some consolation
但我只能说：振作起来 but all I can say is chins up
哦 兰道夫 他这是从哪儿学来的 Oh Randolph where does he get it from
我放弃了 伯莎 我一辈子没有赌博过 I give up Bertha I never gambled in all my life
遇见你之前 我从没跟哪个女孩纠缠过 I never got entangled with any girl until I met you
兰道夫 你称之为纠缠 我是说你缠住了我的心 Randolph you call it entangled I mean you entangled my heart
当然了 兰道夫 我们缠住了彼此的心 Oh of course Randolph We entangled each other's heart
相信我 伯莎 我从不知道演音乐喜剧的女孩长什么样 Believe me Bertha I never knew what a musical comedy girl looked like
他与她们为伍能获得什么 What can he possibly derive from their company
对我来说 她们是别的星球来的生物 To me they were creatures from another planet
他这是从哪儿学来的 咱们家族没人搞音乐 Where does he get it from Nobody in our family was musical
到今天 我都不知道去哪儿找戏院的舞台入口 To this day I wouldn't know how to find the stage entrance to a theater
它总是在一条小巷的后头 It's always around in the back up an alleyway
门上有牌子 “舞台入口” 你不可能错过的 There's a sign over the door: "Stage Entrance " You can't miss it
可我没兴趣 父亲 从来没有 But I'm not interested Father I never was
这孩子是从哪学来的 他从哪儿学来的 Where does the boy get it from Where does he get it from
父亲白手起家建立了范·克里夫贸易公司 Father built up the Van Cleve Importing Company from nothing
他退了以后 我接着干 When he stopped I carried on
爸 你得承认 Dad you must admit
从我离开哈佛那天 我花的每一块钱都是我挣来的 from the day I left Harvard I earned every dollar I ever spent
那你为什么要给他钱 又不让他工作挣钱 Then why do you give him money without making him work for it
我得顾全家族的名声 I have to save the family name
你成百成百的给他又怎么说 What about you handing him hundreds of dollars
要是我来找你要钱 你会给我吗 不会 If I'd come to you for money would you have given it to me No
但你给他了 为什么 为什么 But you give it to him Why Why Why
因为我喜欢他 Because I like him
那是不是说 有那么一点可能 父亲 你不喜欢我 Does that mean by any chance Father that you don't like me
儿子 我爱你 现在闭嘴 让我独自待会儿 Son I love you Now shut up and leave me alone

出什么事了 他不在家 Anything wrong Isn't he home
呵呵 星期天早上11点 11:00 Sunday morning
要不是我了解亨利表弟 会以为他还在教堂呢 If I know my cousin Henry he's probably still in church
我开玩笑说的 I mean that humorously
阿尔伯特 我正成功地跟通风作斗争… Albert I'm struggling successfully against the gout
我正跟我的肝脏展开苦战 我还在坚持对抗哮喘… I'm waging a terrific battle with my liver and I'm holding my own against asthma
可我怀疑自己能不能从你的笑话中幸存 but I doubt if I have strength enough to survive your jokes
你是个成功的律师 就那样吧 You're a successful lawyer Let it go at that
我爱你 阿尔伯特 I love you Albert
你能过来真是太好了 阿尔伯特 Uh it was sweet of you to drop in Albert
我希望他今晚会来感谢你 I hope he'll be here tonight to thank you
我也希望如此 否则我的处境就极为尴尬了 I hope so too otherwise I'd be in the most embarrassing position
考虑到我未来的岳家 as far as my future in laws are concerned
我们热切希望跟你未婚妻见面 她喜欢纽约吗 We're so eager to meet your fiancée How does she like New York
对啊 她玩得高兴吗 Yes Is she enjoying herself
她刚来这里两天 自然有很大的新鲜感 Well she's only been here two days so naturally the impression is overwhelming
我带她去了海洋馆 我们在熨斗大厦纽约第一座摩天楼上上下下坐电梯 I took her to the aquarium We rode up and down the elevator in the Flatiron Building
很自然 我们最后去了格兰特墓 and naturally we ended up in Grant's Tomb
自然 Naturally

对 范·克里夫爸爸 你没意识到我们吃的每一块牛肉… Yes Father Van Cleve Don't you realize that every piece of beef we eat
都来自斯特里博先生众多工厂中的一间吗 comes from one of Mr Strable's many many plants
包括昨晚我大战10回合的那块牛排吗 Does that include the steak I fought 10 rounds with last night
爷爷 看来你对斯特里博先生的重要性一无所知 Grandfather you don't seem to have any idea of the importance of Mr Strable
他创造了美国广告中最出名的角色—母牛梅布尔 He created the most famous character in American advertising Mabel the cow
你见过的 父亲 在广告牌上 You've seen her Father on billboards
那头快乐大母牛 透过栅栏对你微笑 That big happy cow smiling at you over the fence
还用大写字母说话 嗯 什么来着 and saying in big letters um uh How does it go
“世人们 我的名字是梅布尔 每张标签都认可” "To the world my name is Mabel which you'll find on every label
“我是E F 斯特里博打包的 为你的餐桌添快乐” I am packed by E F Strable for the pleasure of your table "
没有哪头脑子正常的母牛会说那种话 No cow in its right mind could have said anything like that
听着更像是斯特里博先生说的 爷爷 拜托 我求你了 Sounds more like Mr Strable Grandfather please I beg of you
这个家能理解你的幽默 但这是典型的纽约式幽默 The family understands your humor but it's a typical kind of New York humor
换句话说 不适合乡巴佬 In other words it's not for yokels huh
请原谅 先生 亨利先生刚回家 他直接上楼了 I beg your pardon sir Mr Henryjust came home He went directly upstairs
伯莎婶婶 你见到亨利时 请告诉他 作为范·克里夫家族一员… Aunt Bertha when you see Henry will you tell him that as a Van Cleve
我有权利要求他 让丑闻的阴影远离咱们的姓氏 I have the right to demand that he keep the shadow of scandal off our name
你看 我未来的岳家 可以说是时代先驱… You see my future in laws are so to speak pioneer people and…
“E F 斯特里博打包的 "Packed by E F Strable
为我们的餐桌添快乐” for the pleasure of our table "
哎妈呀 Holy smoke

他要一百美元 但我告诉他 我告诉他只给他50 He asked for a hundred dollars but I told him I told him I'd let him have only 50
兰道夫 而且不是马上给 Randolph And not right away
27年的婚姻里 我第一次觉得要批评你 For the first time in 27 years of marriage I feel like criticizing you
你要我怎么做 扇26岁大的小伙子一巴掌 What do you want me to do Spank a 26 year old boy
不 但我希望至少口头上挞伐他 No but at least I expected a verbal lashing
你还好吗 我的孩子 很好 母亲 Are you all right my boy Yes Mother
祝你年年有今日 Many happy returns of the day Ohh
母亲 如果我惹你不高兴了 我很抱歉 Mother I'm sorry if I made you unhappy
哦 爷爷和父亲和我都担心死你了 Oh Grandfather and Father and I are worried to death about you
你一点都不考虑家人 You don't give your family a single thought
你满心只想着所谓的快乐时光 All you think about is having what you call a good time
母亲 我昨晚出去惹事去了 Mother I went out last night to raise Cain
儿子 你不能这么说话 别担心 我没有 Son you mustn't talk like that Don't worry I didn't
我不能 I couldn't
我不能把她逐出我的心里 I couldn't get her out of my mind
儿子 你让我担心了 你还好吗 Son you worry me Are you well
母亲 Mother
你第一次见到父亲时 有没有那种绝对错不了的感觉 when you saw Father for the first time did you feel that unmistakable something
你有没有感觉到一道电火花从头通到脚趾 Did you feel an electric spark from your head right down to your toes
如飓风卷起你 把你扔到地上 that swept over you like a hurricane and threw you to the ground
但你又弹地而起 飘到树梢上 but you bounced up again and floated right over the treetops
火花 飓风 Spark A hurricane
天理难容 我从未有过着这种感觉 Heaven forbid I never had such a feeling
亨利 你这是从哪儿学来的 Henry where do you get it from
不是从我这里 你父亲也肯定从没有什么火花 Not from me And certainly your father never had any spark
母亲 我想说的只不过是… Mother all I'm trying to say is
昨天我遇见一位姑娘 I met a girl yesterday
哦 我希望她家庭出身很好 Oh I hope she comes from a good family
我不知道 坦白讲 我也不在乎 I don't know And frankly I don't care
母亲 当一个人看见一朵可爱的玫瑰… Mother when one sees a lovely rose…
这人可以确认她来自一座良好的玫瑰花丛 One can be certain she comes from a fine rosebush
母亲 即便这姑娘的父亲是猫爪草什么的 我也不在乎 Mother even if this girl's father turned out to be something of a buttercup I wouldn't care
她叫什么名字 她住哪里 What's her name Where does she live
我倒想知道 I wish I knew
她不是那些音乐喜剧女孩吗 She isn't one of those musical comedy girls
哦不 母亲 这是完全不同的音乐 Oh no Mother It's an entirely different kind of music
不是肚皮舞 也不是康康舞 It's not the hootchy kootchy It's not the cancan
就像是斯特劳斯的华尔兹 It's like a waltz by Strauss
像是莫扎特的小步舞 Like a minuet by Mozart
亨利 你这是从哪儿学的 Henry where do you get it from
从你那儿 母亲 From you Mother
你必须公正看待 Now you must be just
但我还是小男孩时 你想要我相信童话故事 When I was a little boy you wanted me to believe in fairy tales
而现在有一个故事真的发生了 and now that one has really happened…
你记得那个年轻人的故事吗 You remember that story about the young man
我记得那是个森林里的牧羊人 I think he was a shepherd who was walking in the woods
哦 你是去了乡下 Oh you've been in the country
不不 母亲 就发生在百老汇 No no Mother It happened right on Broadway
突然 这年轻人看见一座大城堡 Suddenly the young man saw a big castle
靠在窗边的正是最美丽的公主 and leaning out of the window was the most beautiful princess
什么也不能阻止他 他爬上城堡的护墙 Nothing could stop him He climbed up the parapet of the castle…
亨利 你不会又闯进华尔道夫酒店了吧 Henry You haven't broken into the Waldorf again
亲爱的母亲 咱们忘掉童话故事吧 Mother darling let's forget the fairy tale
对 你也该长大了 Well it's about time you grew up
我是来斥责你的 我要开始了 I came here to scold you and I'm going to do it
看看你的堂兄阿尔伯特 Now look at your cousin Albert
并不比你大多少 已经是大公司的律师了 Not much older than you are and already a corporation lawyer
和一个知名家族的可爱姑娘订了婚 engaged to a lovely girl of a well known family
亨利 这话也许太苛刻 但你一定要振作起来 安定下来 Henry now this may sound severe but you've got to pull yourself together and settle down
母亲 我认为我永远找不到这女孩 Mother I don't think I'll ever find this girl
但如果我找到了 你的烦恼就全没了 but if I did then all your troubles would be over
要是她不想我赌博 我就再也不看一张牌 If she didn't want me to gamble I wouldn't look at another card
我会每晚待在家里 I'd stay home every night
母亲 我也许还会去工作 Mother I might even go to work
亨利 那可太好了 Henry that's wonderful
我不知道这女孩的事 I don't know about the girl
但你愿意安定生活 这想法令我高兴 but the fact that you have the desire to settle down makes me so happy
你第一次开始像你父亲那样说话 For the first time you're beginning to sound like your father
母亲 我不知道这女孩在哪里 所以别太激动了 Uh Mother I don't know where this girl is so don't expect too much
听你妈一句 别操心那女孩了 Oh now listen to your mother Don't worry about that girl
别的女孩会出现的 Another girl will come along
我亲自给你物色一个 怎么样 好 好 母亲 I'll look for one myself How's that Fine Fine Mother
等我给你找到一个姑娘 她就会是理想绝配 And when I find a girl for you she'll be Miss Right
你知道咱们应该去哪儿找吗 And do you know where we'll find her

哦 孩子 别担心 Oh child don't worry
可这很费钱的 Well it was very expensive
出租马车还等在门口… The cab is still waiting out in front

我曾有过的最为清白的秘密 The most innocent secret I ever had
它发生于周六早上 在华纳梅克百货 It happened Saturday morning in Wannamaker's Department Store
喂 母亲 我在美发店 Hello Mother I'm at the hairdresser's
他们还在给我做头发 They're still doing my hair
哦 对 Yes Oh yes
等一下 我告诉他们留多长 Just a moment and I'll ask them how long it'll be
这里有个女孩正在对母亲说谎 Here was a girl lying to her mother
自然 这女孩立刻引起我的兴趣 Naturally that girl interested me at once
他们说大概还要15分钟 They say it'll take about 15 more minutes
我最多半小时后回家 I'll be home at the most in half an hour
别担心 母亲 再见 Don't worry Mother Good bye
为什么这位天使要对母亲说谎 Why was this angel lying to her mother
我得找出原因 所以我跟踪了她 I had to find out so I followed her
不过即便她没跟母亲说谎 我反正也要跟着她 But even if she hadn't lied to her mother I would have followed her anyway
有何吩咐 小姐 May I help you miss
谢谢 Thank you
我想看看… I would like to see a…
这里没有女办事员吗 Are there no women clerks
不幸没有 不过也许能让你感觉容易些… Unfortunately not But it might make you feel a little easier
跟你说了吧 我是经理通常派来处理… if I tell you that I'm the one usually chosen by the management to handle
微妙事务的人选 the more delicate situations
事实上 他们称我为“书虫的小妈妈” As a matter of fact they call me "the bookworms' little mother "
哦 这个… Well it's uh
也许我还是另找时间来为好 拜托 小姐 Maybe I better come back some other time Please miss
我的雇主正盯着呢 My employer is watching
要是他看见我失去一名顾客 也许会赔上我的工作 and if he sees me losing a customer it might cost me my job
哦 太抱歉了 我当然不想剥夺你的生计 Oh I'm so sorry Naturally I wouldn't like to deprive you of your livelihood
哦 谢谢 谢谢 Oh thank you Thank you
再次再次感谢你 Thank you again and again
嗯 书名是… 什么 Well the title of the book is uh Yes

给你 There you are
我也许应该道歉 我想我应该称呼你为“夫人” I probably should apologize I imagine I should have called you madam
不 还是小姐 No it's still miss
但不会太久了 我想 很正确 But not for long I presume That's quite right
这本书多少钱 How much is the book
如果你能给我姓名和地址 我们非常乐意替你付帐 We'll be only too glad to charge it if you would be kind enough to give me your name and address
谢谢 不过我还是付钱好 多少 Thank you but I'd rather pay How much
哦 很贵 那没关系 Uh it's very expensive Oh that's all right
听着 此举违背了布伦塔诺先生的利益 Now this is against the interests of Mr Brentano
不过 既然我可以说是你的文学祭司 but since I am so to speak your literary confessor
我必须对你诚实 I must be honest with you
别买这本书 你不需要它 Don't buy this book You don't need it
我跟你说点更为适合你的吧 I'll tell you something much more appropriate for you
离开你的鸟巢 跟我一起远走高飞 Leave your nest and fly away with me
我也许还是买了这本书好 Well I might buy that book too

恐怕我没有多少时间 所以拜托你能否告诉我… I'm afraid I haven't much time So please will you tell me
《如何让你的丈夫幸福》这本书多少钱 How much is How to Make Your Husband Happy
看看她 布洛萨姆·弗兰肯博士 Look at her Dr Blossom Franklin
那样一个女人能去哪儿发现如何使丈夫幸福 Now where could a woman like that have found out how to make a husband happy
你当然不会想从她那里学东西 You certainly don't want to learn anything from her
你这么迷人 这么年轻这么漂亮 You're so charming so young and so beautiful
请原谅 你不该说这些话 I beg your pardon You shouldn't say such things
你看 小姐 卖文学书的人会变得诗意 You see miss when selling literature one gets poetic
你一定得原谅我时不时冒出诗句来 And you must forgive me if I take poetic license once in a while
我更愿意不再讨论此事 I'd rather not discuss it any further
另外…你不介意的话 我要买这本书 and if you don't mind I'd like to buy this book
我介意 I do mind
现在请想象一下我就是你要嫁的人 Now imagine I'm the man you're going to marry
这种事我想象不来 I couldn't imagine any such thing
我怎么了 你觉得我就那么可怕 Well what's the matter with me…You think I'm that terrible
拜托 我就是来买本书 如此而已 Please I just came in here to buy a book That's all
我知道 但为了讨论方便 比方说我们要结婚了 I understand But for the sake of discussion let's say we are getting married
相信我 我不想谁来告诉你如何令我高兴 Believe me I don't want anybody to tell you how to make me happy
你能给我带来的最好礼物 就是做你自己…可人儿 The greatest gift you could bring me is to be just as you are…adorable
我只是想要本书 顽固 All I want is a book Stubborn eh
什么 原谅我的诗句 What Pardon my poetic license
要是你不改变态度 我将不得不跟你的雇主投诉 If you don't change your attitude I shall have to complain to your employer
我没有受雇于这里 我不是卖书的 I'm not employed here I'm not a book salesman
我只看了你一眼 就跟你来到这书店 I took one look at you and followed you into the store
要是你走进一家餐馆 我就变成一个侍者 If you'd walked into a restaurant I would have become a waiter
要是你走进一栋着火的房子 我就变成一名消防员 If you'd walked into a burning building I would have become a fireman
要是你走进一部电梯 If you'd walked into an elevator
我就把它停在两层之间 咱们在那里共度余生 I would have stopped it between two floors and we'd have spent the rest of our lives there
请原谅我 但你不能就这样走出我的生活 Please forgive me but you can't walk out of my life like that
我觉得你行为粗俗 真是疯了 I think your behavior's outrageous It's mad
我坚决要你立刻离开 绝不 绝不 I must insist that you leave me at once Never Never
这人在骚扰你吗 小姐 Is this man annoying you miss
如果是 直说吧 我会注意他的 If he is just say so I'll take care of him
我在骚扰你吗 Am I annoying you
告诉这位警官 Tell the officer
没有 这位绅士只是在说再见 No The gentlemen was just saying good bye
哦 再见 再见 Well good bye Good bye
这就是我们可怕的秘密 This was our terrible secret
我非常抱歉 阿尔伯特 I'm terribly sorry Albert
亲爱的 你好像不知道是谁在演唱 Dearest you don't seem to realize who's singing
我知道 年轻的库珀库珀夫人 I know Young Mrs Cooper Cooper
如果只是个亲戚 连一半的尴尬都不会有了 If it were just a relative it wouldn't be half so embarrassing
可库珀库珀夫人是你们最重要的客户之一 我还没忘记 But Mr Cooper Cooper is one of your most important clients I haven't forgotten
可我能怎么办 我要打喷嚏 But what could I do I had to sneeze
可你正好在她的咏叹调中间打…还打了五次 But you did it right in the middle of her aria and five times
因为我必须打五个喷嚏 Because I had to sneeze five times
阿尔伯特 假如未来有一天我要打喷嚏… Albert suppose someday in the future I had to sneeze…
那你就打 当然了 Then you sneeze Naturally
你别担心 毕竟 无论好坏我都会接受你 Don't you worry After all I'm taking you for better or for worse
你觉得你会不会又想打喷嚏 Do you think you may have to sneeze again
我不知道 我不能保证 那么 咱们就别冒险了 I don't know I can't guarantee it Well then let's not take any chances
你不如去图书室休息一下 等着看事情的进展 Why don't you go in the library and rest a while and see how things develop

我想我最好回去听她再来一曲 I think I'd better go back for the encore
对 亲爱的 Yes dear
亨利堂弟 怎么 玛莎堂嫂 Cousin Henry Yes Cousin Martha
你一定再不能像那样做了 You must never do anything like that again
你过来就是要告诉我这个 Is that what you came back here to tell me
我觉得太离谱了 我都不太认识你 I think it's outrageous I hardly know you
干嘛 连阿尔伯特 你的堂兄…也从不敢… Why even Albert my own fianc… never dared to
亲吻你 他当然吻过我 有何不妥 Kiss you Of course he kissed me Why not
毕竟 我们订婚了 After all we're engaged
但他从未像那样亲吻过我 像什么样 But he never kissed me like that Like what
哦 我恨你 我恨你 Oh I hate you I hate you
我都不知道为什么还要跟你待在一个房间里 I don't even know why I stay in the same room with you
请原谅我 可我们不能做朋友吗 Please forgive me but can't we be friends
只是朋友 绝不 Just friends Never
你看 我们会成为亲戚 不是吗 Now look we're gonna be related aren't we
而且我们会互相见面 And we're gonna see each other
我们怎么处理呢 我想没法处理 How can we help it I suppose we can't
如果以后见面 我们也没必要谈私事…关于你我的 And if we meet in the future we don't have to talk about personal things about you and me
咱们谈些中性话题 Let's talk about something neutral
比如 谈阿尔伯特 有何不可 For instance Albert Why not
对了 你爱阿尔伯特吗 By the way do you love Albert
我要嫁给他了 不是吗 I'm marrying him am I not

阿尔伯特是个好人 对 他是的 Albert's a fine man Yes he is
他很好 而且…而且他正直 He's good and and he has integrity
他充满崇高的理想 你爱他吗 And he's full of high ideals Do you love him
哦 我要给他一个很好的妻子 至少我要尽力去做 Well I'm gonna make him a very fine wife At least I'm gonna try my best
他的一生中绝不会有哪个时刻后悔娶了我 There'll never be a moment in his whole life when he'll ever regret having married me
你再问我问题 我就离开房间 再也不回来 And if you ask me one more question I'm gonna leave this room and I'll never come back again
永远 Never
我还是不理解 I still can't understand it
你这样一位天使跟阿尔伯特 太没道理了 An angel like you and Albert It It doesn't make sense
你为什么想嫁给他 Why do you want to marry him
你看 我一直想住在纽约 Well you see I always wanted to live in New York
我不想说堪萨斯的坏话 I don't want to say anything against Kansas
但在我父亲庄园里的生活… but life on my father's estate
别误会我 所有现代设施和奢侈品我们都有 但… Don't misunderstand me We have all the modern conveniences and luxuries but

你看 大部分时间里他们互相不交谈 You see most of the time they don't talk to one another
不管何时 有年轻人…其中一些非常好 And whenever a young man and there were some very nice ones
哦 我对此很肯定 Oh I'm sure of it
如果他们中有人要和我交往 我母亲说行 我父亲就说不 If one of them asked for my hand and my mother said yes my father said no
我父亲说行的时候 我母亲就说不 And when my father said yes my mother said no
可阿尔伯特正好出现在 极少数我父母交谈的时期 But Albert came at one of those rare moments when they were both on speaking terms
要是我不说行… And if I hadn't said yes
谁知道我父母什么时候再次互相交谈呢 who knows when my parents might have been talking to each other again

除此之外 Besides that
我不想当老处女 I didn't want to be an old maid
不要在堪萨斯 Not in Kansas
你会在纽约这里生活的 而且你不必嫁给阿尔伯特 Well you're going to live right here in New York and you don't have to marry Albert

恋爱的时候你什么也不用认识 You don't need to know anything when you love
爱情不需要介绍 你要么爱要么不爱 Love needs no introduction You love or you don't
你疯了 都不知道自己在说什么 You are mad You don't know what you're saying
你一定丧失理智了 你爱我还是不爱 You must be out of your mind Do you love me or don't you
试图夺走自己堂兄的未婚妻 令家族蒙羞 Trying to take away the fiancee of your own cousin causing a family scandal
你爱我吗 爱 Do you love me Yes

为了让你高兴 为了永远拥你入怀 To make you happy To hold you in my arms forever
我再也不能正视我父亲的脸了 I'll never be able to look my father in the face
我再也不能回堪萨斯了 那不是很好吗 I'll never be able to go back to Kansas again Isn't that wonderful

但我向你保证 我们家在情感上与你同在 but I assure you that the sentiments of our family are with you
要是这事发生在家里 我丈夫会跳上一匹马 用套索带他们回来 If this happened at home my husband would jump on a horse and lasso them back
你别教我该干什么 Don't you tell me what I would do
但有一件事我要做…剥夺她的继承权 But there's one thing I am going to do disinherit her
她再也见不到我的一个子儿了 She'll never see another nickel of mine
我们从堪萨斯来的时候是一个快乐家庭 至少 是个家庭 We came here from Kansas a happy family Well anyway a family
我们爱我们的玛莎 别再提她的名字 We loved our Martha Don't mention her name again

而我每次都抱歉 爸爸 And I'm always sorry Daddy
爸爸 我打赌你想知道我会给你什么生日礼物 Daddy I'll bet you'd like to know what I'm gonna give you for your birthday
我等不及了 是一件能戴的东西 I'm dying to know It's something to wear
咱们猜猜 是一条领带 我不说 Let's see now Uh is it a tie I'm not telling
我给你个线索 它上面有22种颜色 I'll give you a hint It has 22 colors in it
没有领带会有那么多颜色 所以不可能是领带 No tie can have that many colors so it can't be a tie
不可能 对吧 我不会说是领带… It can't be huh Now I'm not saying it is a tie
但如果它是一条领带 世上可再也没有另一条同样的了 but if it were a tie there wouldn't be another one like it in the world
我不敢相信 杰基 爸爸 你就快多少岁了 I can believe that Jackie Daddy how old are you going to be

我做作业 每天早上刷牙 I did my schoolwork brushed my teeth every morning
天 爸爸 我估计你是个很好的男孩 Gee Daddy I guess you were a wonderful boy
哦 我想我是的 Well I suppose I was
那么老爷爷一定是个撒谎精了 Then old Grandpa must be a terrible liar
再见 爸爸 Well good bye Daddy
他这是从哪儿学来的 Where does he get it from

请原谅 我就回来 Uh excuse me I'll be right back

请别试图跟着我 等我安定下来 我会安排杰基
什么也别让他知道
以你的机灵 编个故事很容易
玛莎
亨利 Henry
你是说我们失去了玛莎 you mean we've lost Martha
这不可能 难以置信 It's impossible It's incredible
毫无道理啊 玛莎离开我 It just doesn't make sense Martha leaving me
你做了什么 出什么事了 What did you do What happened
我不知道没有她我怎么活下去 I don't know how I can go on living without her
爷爷 我爱玛莎 我爱她超过世上一切 Grandpa I love Martha I love her more than anything in the world
我没问你这个 我问你出了什么事 I didn't ask you that I asked you what happened
我不知道 I don't know
我一直以为她跟我在一起很快乐 I always thought she was very happy with me
我不知道她听见些什么话 I don't know what she's heard
你知道大家都是怎么议论别人的 You know how people talk about anybody
没人是完美的 No man is perfect
但是就这样出走… But running away like this
相信我…我看不出是什么理由 Believe me I I can't see any reason for it
如果玛莎这样的女人离开丈夫 那一定有个理由 If a woman like Martha runs away from her husband there must be a reason
你听好了 亨利 Now look here Henry
你是我唯一关心的范·克里夫家人 我爱你 You were the only Van Cleve I ever really cared about I loved you
你以前像我 至少我以为如此 You were like me at least I thought so
你就是我曾经想成为的人 You were all the things I wanted to be
你做的事情全是我想做但没做的 You did all the things I wanted to do and didn't
可现在你让我失望了 爷爷 没有她我活不下去 And now you've let me down Grandpa I can't live without her
我该怎么办 那得看你 What what am I gonna do That's up to you
不过我告诉你一件事 But let me tell you one thing
我是个老人 I'm an old man
我也许哪天就走了 I might have to go any day now
如果你不能让玛莎原谅你… And if you can't make Martha forgive you
我就在上面等着 守住入口 I'll be waiting up there right in the entrance

一秒钟也不能提早 and not one second sooner

老板 Boss
我刚跟太太进行了很好的对话 I just had a very fine conversation with the missus
她说如果您能赏脸对此事保持点耐心 and she says if you'd just be good enough to give the matter a little patience
等她一看完《闹腾孩子报》 我想… as soon as she finishes The Katzenjammer Kids I think…
今天早上我特意早早下来… I came down especially early this morning
就为了搞清那个队长是不是从桶里出来了 to find out if the captain got out of the barrel
每周日都闹这一出 我再也不要忍受了 This goes on every Sunday and I'm not gonna stand it anymore
贾斯珀 请原谅 斯特里博先生 Jasper Excuse me Mr Strable
有何吩咐 Yes'm
你可以告诉斯特里博先生 那个队长从桶里出来了 You can tell Mr Strable the captain got out of the barrel
老板 老板 Boss Boss

现在您可以再来几块煎饼了 就两块 Now you can have a few more cakes Ah just a couple
我看不出他有什么办法能从桶里出来 I can't see how he could get out of that barrel
怎么办 那个桶有木条封着 Why that barrel had wooden slats
钉死在上面和底部… nailed down on the top and the bottom
而且还箍着一圈圈钢条 and there were steel bands all around it
而且他们还把它扔在沙漠中间 and they left it in the middle of the desert
这样 他怎么可能从里面出来 Now how could he ever get out of it
您吃您的煎饼 趁热趁新鲜 You eat your cakes while they're nice and hot
与此同时 我去看看能有什么发现 In the meantime I'll see what I can find out
呃 再来一块羊排 斯特里博太太 我看行 Uh another lamb chop Mrs Strable I don't mind

他从里面出来的办法 是一条友好的蛇爬过来… the way he got out of it was a friendly snake came crawling
不要告诉我 Don't tell me
你明知要不是我自己去读就不好玩了 You know it's no fun unless I read it myself
你这是想干嘛 搅了我的星期天 What are you trying to do ruin my Sunday
你去告诉斯特里博先生 我刚才是在跟你说话 Will you tell Mr Strable I was talking to you
贾斯珀 Jasper
那条蛇在沙漠里爬过来… the snake came crawling along in the desert

哦 我不能再让你们继续纳闷了 Well I don't want to keep you in suspense any longer
我遇见了你们的女儿 玛莎 I met your own daughter Martha
不要在这房子里提她的名字 Don't mention her name in this house
我们不想再听到关于她的任何事 We don't want to hear anything more about her
我亲爱的朋友们 My dear friends
作为一名法律工作者 我得说即便在我们的刑法典里… speaking as a jurist may I say that even in our penal code
也已经明智地提供了假释体系 we have wisely provided a system of parole
而且我有极佳的理由相信 那位当事人… and I have excellent reason to believe that the party
其名字 我自然不会在这房子里提… whose name I naturally will not mention in this house
已经为她的错误付出了代价 has amply paid for her mistake
很好 Good
而且我肯定 回到她父母的暖巢里 是她再喜欢不过的事了 And I am sure there is nothing she'd like better than to come back to the paternal nest
那么她是想离开他 现在她想起我们了 So she wants to leave him and now she remembers us
一点可能都没有 阿尔伯特 这是最终决定 Not a chance Albert That's final
这个 她正等在一辆马车里 Well she's waiting in a carriage

这是周日早上 我们有小麦薄饼 It's Sunday morning We got wheat cakes
谢谢 父亲 但我不饿 Thank you Father but I'm not hungry
哦 这里变化不大 对吧 Well the place hasn't changed much has it
没变 看起来完全一样 No it looks exactly the same
也许现在你会欣赏你的家了 Maybe now you'll appreciate your home
花了你10年时间才发现我们是对的 It took you 10 years to find out that we were right
要是你听了你母亲的话 还有你父亲的 事情也许就不一样 If you'd listened to your mother And your father things might have been different
我想我还是走吧 哦 你倒越来越敏感了 I think I'd better be going Oh you're getting touchy huh
如果说谁有权利生气 也得是我们 Well if anyone has a right to be angry it's us
但是 我们愿意让往事都过去 But we're willing to let bygones be bygones
毕竟 我们不是石头做的 如果女儿回家了 心里有愧… After all we're not made of stone If a daughter comes home and is sorry
我没有愧疚 我也不想要你们的原谅 I'm not sorry and I don't want your forgiveness
那你回家来干什么 Then what did you come home for
我回来是因为我觉得想看看你们 I came here because I felt I wanted to see you
要是你们期望我双膝跪地… 好了好了 忘了吧 If you expect me to get down on my knees Now now now now forget it
毕竟 你当时年轻 事情也许全是那个… After all you were young and it probably was all the fault of that
请别 父亲 Please Father
关于过去十年 我不想听到哪怕一个不好听的词 I don't want to hear a single unpleasant word about the last 10 years
否则我就走 or I'll have to go
玛莎 Martha
你看起来很累 亲爱的 You look so tired dear
不奇怪 毕竟… 你就不能忍着 Well no wonder After all Can't you keep still
事情都已逝去并掩埋了 咱们忘了它吧 It's all dead and buried and let's forget it
来 咱们上楼去 Come on Let's go upstairs
你好好洗个热水澡 然后躺下休息 You're going to have a nice hot bath and then you're going to lie down and rest

你为自己的错误付出了代价 而且代价很大 You paid for your mistakes and paid dearly
听好 Now
我不想任何人有这种印象 即我是10年悲惨生活的受害人 I don't want anybody to get the impression that I've been the victim of 10 years of misery
没有的事 Nothing of the kind
正相反 我可以说我的婚姻中有些时候… On the contrary I can say there were moments in my marriage
是没有几个女人有那么幸运可以经历的 which few women have been lucky enough to have experienced
有些时候 你被高举上天… 对 很高 There were times when you were lifted way up to the sky Yes way up
不过是方便下一刻被扔下来 Only to be dropped way down afterward
那不是婚姻的目的 婚姻不是一连串的激情 That's not the purpose of marriage Marriage isn't a series of thrills
婚姻是 两个思维正常的人之间 平和而均衡的协调 Marriage is a peaceful well balanced adjustment of two right thinking people
恐怕这话太过真实了 I'm afraid that's only too true
好了 晚安 阿尔伯特 Well good night Albert

当然 我不是那类华而不实的 不像有些人 Naturally I'm not the flashy type like some people
我得说 我更愿意做保守派 I'd say I was rather on the conservative side
如果我是 举个例子 一套衣服 你不会说我是时髦的 If I were for instance a suit of clothes you wouldn't call me a stylish cut
而我就是更喜欢这样 And I prefer it that way
但我至少可以说 我是坚实布料制成的 But I can safely say I'm made of solid material
我的缝纫工很精细 而且衬里也不错 玛莎 I'm sewed together carefully and my lining is good Martha
坦白说 我相信穿上我会很棒 Frankly I believe I wear well
我…夏天穿不会太热 I'm not too hot in the summer
而在冬天能提供保护 and I give protection in the winter
需要我再说一些吗 不 阿尔伯特 Need I say more No Albert

晚安 谢谢 玛莎 Good night Thank you Martha

噢 亨利 一句话不说就那么跑了 Oh Henry Running away like that without a word
你想象不到我如何受煎熬吗 Can't you imagine how I suffered

我知道装可怜、哭泣的小男孩那招 I know the poor weeping little boy
我知道被误解的、坚强男人默默无语这招 I know the misunderstood strong silent man
受伤的狮子 骄傲地不愿解释昨晚在丛林里发生的事 the wounded lion who's too proud to explain what happened in the jungle last night
所以我虚假 So I'm a fake
我虚伪 我廉价 哦 亨利 得了… I'm false I'm cheap Oh Henry please
我知道除了忧愁我没带给你什么 你知道这不是真的 I know I've brought you nothing but unhappiness You know that's not true
哦 那咱们还有过些快乐时光 一些美妙时光 Oh So we had some good times together Some wonderful times
那你是想要什么 我做了什么 Then what do you want What did I do
即便是谋杀犯也有权利为自己辩护 Even a murderer has a right to defend himself
你不能没有证据就绞死一个人 …没有证据就绞死一个人 You can't hang a man without evidence hang a man without evidence
我知道这招 I know
但愿我知道你心里到底是哪件事 If I only knew what particular thing is in your mi
你最近见了米妮塔婶婶吗 见了 当然 Have you seen Aunt Minetta recently Yes of course
哦 那么现在事情都清楚了 Oh well now everything is clear
这是件我都不想跟你提的事 太不重要了 This is something I didn't even want to mention to you it's so unimportant
她看见我的时候 没错 我是在广场喝茶 When she saw me yes I was at the Plaza having tea
跟我同桌的是一个很俊俏的年轻女人 and at the table with me was a very handsome young woman
但相信我 什么事都没有 but believe me there was nothing to it
我本应该跟你解释的 但你不想令我不安 I would have explained to you myself But you didn't want to make me uncomfortable
一秒钟都不想 正是 亲爱的 正是如此 Even for one second That's right darling That's exactly right
亨利 这招没用 Henry it won't work
另外 米妮塔婶婶一个字都没提起你 And besides Aunt Minetta didn't say one word about you
而说到广场那位漂亮的年轻女士… 亲爱的 我很容易解释的 And as for the very beautiful young lady at the Plaza Darling I can easily explain that
哦 我知道你能 你是这方面的大师 Oh I know you can You're a master at that
好吧 好吧 这一仗我是打不赢了 All right all right I'm fighting a losing battle
我不爱你 我从没爱过你 I don't love you I never loved you
我对纽约每个人的爱都超过你 I love everybody in New York more than you
你又来了 There you go again
10月25日到了 It's the 25th of October
年年有今日 Many happy returns
谢谢你 玛莎 Thank you Martha
但还有一件事远比我的生日更重要 but it's something much more important than my birthday
今天是咱们的纪念日 It's our anniversary
十年前的今天 我差不多跟现在一样爱你 Ten years ago today I was almost as much in love with you as I am right now
一个女人很难在结婚纪念日这天把丈夫赶走 It's very difficult for a woman to send her husband away on their 10th anniversary
特别是他说话像你这么动听 especially when he speaks as beautifully as you do
但我必须这么做 But I must do it
好吧 亲爱的 我知道都结束了 All right darling I know it's all over
我肯定你会找到别人 他将…真正配得上你 I'm sure you'll find someone else who will be really worthy of you
不过让我们假装下… But let's pretend
就一会儿 just for a minute
结婚纪念日快乐 Happy anniversary
你喜欢吗 Do you like it
我必须说 它至少值1万美元 I'd say it cost at least $10 000
花这么多钱 真是件好东西 For that money it's a very good purchase
为什么 玛莎 你怎么能这样说话 Why Martha how can you talk like that
如果你只是忘了给我这只手链 If you'd only forgotten to give me this bracelet
我现在也许会傻得扑进你怀里 I probably would have been foolish enough to be in your arms right now
你根本不知道你犯了什么错 You've no idea what a mistake you made
魔术师玩同一个花招太多次了 The magician played one trick too many
那天我得到一张杰基和我的新照片 The other day I was having a new photograph made of Jackie and me
我想把它剪成符合你钱包的尺寸 I wanted to have it the right size to fit into your wallet
所以我溜进了你的房间 So I slipped into your room
这个从你钱包里掉出来 This fell out of your wallet
5月1日 1只手链送达 500美元 5月21日 1只手链送达 10000美元
而我从来不记得在5月2日左右收到过你的任何手链 And I don't ever remember having received any bracelet from you on or about May 2
哦 一切都是为了这个啊 Oh so that's what it's all about
你做这些原来就是因为珠宝商给搞错了呀 And to think that you went through all this just because the jeweler made a mistake
而整件事情就是个错误 And that what the whole thing is a mistake
当然我没有买500美元的手链啦 Naturally I didn't buy a bracelet for $500
卡迪埃以前有没有在我们的账单上出过错 Has Cartier ever made a mistake in any of our bills before
亲爱的 我爱你 Darling I love you
我认为你是世界上最美丽最可爱的尤物 I think you're the most beautiful adorable thing in all the world
你真相信有会有女人好到把我从你身边带走吗 Do you really believe there's any woman good enough to take me away from you
如果真有这样的女人 你觉得她会只值500美金吗 And if there were such a woman do you think she'd be worth only a $500 bracelet
亨利 我… 亲爱的 我跟你打赌 Henry I Darling I'll make you a bet
如果卡迪埃不承认这整件事都是个可怕的错误… If Cartier doesn't admit that this whole thing is a terrible mistake
那你就再不去那儿买东西了 亨利 这没有用 Then you won't buy there anymore Henry it won't work
爷爷 玛莎 我亲爱的 Grandpa Martha my darling
来吧来吧 咱们开始收拾行李吧 Come on come on Let's get started Let's pack
爷爷 你什么意思 自然 你要跟我们回纽约去 Grandpa what do you mean Naturally you're going back with us to New York
你站在那儿干嘛 你的活儿干得可真差劲 What are you standing there for You're making a pretty bad job of it
快 给她收拾一下 不然我们要错过下一班火车了 Come on sweep her off her feet or we'll miss the next train
如果我不能让她快乐 我也不想让她回家 对 这句好多了 If I can't make her happy then I don't want her to come back Yeah that's better
不 我是认真的 所以才好 No I mean this seriously That's why it's good
瞧 玛莎 咱们面对现实吧 Look Martha let's face it
你想要离婚 我看不出有别的办法 You want a divorce I see no other way
杰基怎么办 自然 我要他 What about Jackie Naturally I want him
我想你是对的 我想他应该离开我 I think you're right I think he should get away from me
我不是这个意思 但我是 I didn't mean it that way But I did
我极爱这男孩 因此我想他应该离开我 I adore the boy and therefore I think he shouldn't be with me
哦 我认为孩子不应该被从父亲身边夺走 Well I don't think a child should be deprived of his father
你想让他长大成为另一个亨利·范·克里夫… Do you want him to grow up to be another Henry Van Cleve
在他36岁生日时惹自己的妻子不高兴 就象我对你这样 and on his 36th birthday make his wife as unhappy as I've made you
你的其它东西在衣橱里 玛莎 对 Are the rest of your things in the closet Martha Yes
举个例子 你知道那天咱们的小杰基做了什么吗 For instance do you know what our little Jackie did the other day
什么 他买了冰激凌给一个小姑娘 What He bought some ice cream for a little girl
这有什么错 我觉得这样很可爱 What's wrong about that I think it's charming
但他给了冰激凌的那女孩 不是他应该给的那个女孩 But the girl he bought the ice cream for was not the girl he should have bought it for
不是 不是 It wasn't No
小魔鬼 Little devil
当那个小女孩发现另一个女孩… And when the one little girl found out that the other girl
哦 那孩子给自己惹了好大麻烦 Well that boy got himself into such a mess
哦 但愿我在场 Oh if I only could have been there
你应该看看咱们的小杰基努力想摆脱那困境 You should have seen our little Jackie trying to get himself out of that situation
他成功了 对 Did he Yes
小姑娘比以前更喜欢他了 Little girl likes him better than before
好 多厉害的孩子 Good What a child
相信我 他是个难题 我想也是 Believe me he is a problem I suppose so
当他编那些小谎话的时候 But when he makes up his little stories
你明知只是些小谎话 And you know they're just little stories
但他极力想要你相信 你就希望自己能信 but he wants you to believe them so badly that you wish you could
最后你别无他法 只能… and finally what can you do but
结婚纪念日快乐 Happy anniversary
我还是很困惑 我得整理一下思路 I'm still too confused I've got to collect myself
给她时间来下决心 爷爷 她可以上了火车再说 Give her time to make up her mind grandpa She can do that on the train
可我跟我父母怎么说呢 给他们发封电报 But what am I going to say to my parents Send 'em a telegram
你是说半夜从这房子里溜走 正是 You mean sneak out of the house in the middle of the night Exactly
就像夜贼一样 就像盗贼一样 Like burglars Like thieves
我们以前干过一次 干嘛不再来一次呢 We did it once before Why shouldn't we do it again
有多少人够幸运能在一次婚姻里体会两次私奔的紧张感 How many people are lucky enough to have the thrill of eloping twice in one marriage
就是 就是 That's it That's it
有多少女人 爱自己丈夫爱到原谅他并从头开始 How many women love their husbands enough to forgive them and start all over again
好 好 Good Good
又有多少男人 爱自己妻子爱到什么都没干还撒谎说自己有错 And how many men love their wives enough to lie and say they're guilty when they've done nothing
小心哦 亨利 小心 至少没犯什么大错 Careful Henry careful At least nothing that amounts to very much
换我就不会再说下去 咱们最好动身吧 I wouldn't go any further into that We'd better get started
我看看危险是不是已经解除了 I'll see if the coast is clear
贾斯珀 贾斯珀 在 Jasper Jasper Yes
都准备好了 是的 先生 就在前门 Everything ready Yes sir Right out in front
贾斯珀 我一生都想跟一个女人出走 Jasper all my life I've wanted to run away with a woman

哦 你厌倦了 Oh you did huh
所以我就直面了如何甩掉她的问题 So then I faced the problem of how to get rid of her
你知道这种事并不容易 You know things like that aren't easy
要我说 的确是 I should say not
别问我 我没问你 我不过是做个声明 Don't ask me I didn't ask you I merely made a statement
继续 杰克 可话说回来 她又能对我做什么 Go on Jack But after all what could she do to me
我没对她承诺什么 I hadn't promised her anything
你没有吗 我得说没有 You hadn't I should say not
我并非她生命中的第一段罗曼史 I wasn't the first romance in her life
你们知道 我不是小孩子了 You know I'm no baby
不过尽管如此 你去的时候担心遇上大麻烦 对吧 But nevertheless you went there expecting a lot of trouble didn't you
是的 但令我吃惊的是 她对整件事很大度 Yes but to my surprise she was so big about the whole thing
很容易就放过了我 and let me off so easily
哦 她是这样的 那不是很幸运吗 Oh she did eh Well isn't that fortunate
是啊 Yes
她对整件事的表现极好 我差点重新爱上她 She was so wonderful about the whole thing I almost fell in love with her again

实际上 我一辈子从没这么高兴过 As a matter of fact I never was happier in my life
既然我们在谈这个话题 杰克 我想你也到年龄了… And while we're on the subject Jack I think you're getting to the age
应该开始四处找找真正的好女孩子啦 where you should start to look around for a really nice girl
哦 我不用四处找 我已经遇见她了 Oh I don't have to look around I've met her already
你已经遇见了 一个出色的女孩 You have A wonderful girl
我一辈子遇见过最出色的女孩 真的 那不是很好吗 The most wonderful girl I ever met in my life Really Well isn't that nice
告诉我 这位年轻女士是谁 也许是我认识的 Tell me who is the young lady Is she someone I might know
也许是一个纽约女孩 A New York girl perhaps

玛莎 你会不会认为我有点胖 Martha do you think I'm getting a little heavy
别为它烦心 Don't let that worry you
事实上 我喜欢这样 As a matter of fact I like it
我来告诉你 Let me tell you something
大约15年前 你和爷爷把我从堪萨斯带回来 Nearly 15 years ago when you and Grandfather brought me back from Kansas
我仍然没觉得你真的属于我 只属于我 I still didn't feel that you really belonged to me and only to me
我不能说有什么确切的问题 I can't put my finger on anything definite
但我依然 一旦没跟你在一起的时候 总是有点不安定 but still whenever I wasn't with you I was always a little uncertain
对我的小风流浪子感到紧张 nervous about my little Casanova
之后… And then
有一天我注意到你开始有了一点… one day I noticed that you began to have a little
就一点点小肚子 Well just a little tummy
那时我知道我安全了 Then I knew I was safe
从那时起我知道你是我的了 你安定下来了 From that moment on I knew that you were really mine that you'd settle down
现在上床去吧 亲爱的 你累一天了 Now go to bed darling You've had a hard day
晚安 晚安 亲 Good night Good night dear
没错 我们结婚25年了 Yes we were married 25 years
我们在庆祝我们的银婚纪念日 We were celebrating our silver wedding anniversary
你看见范·克里夫太太了吗 没有 先生 我一直在厨房 Have you seen Mrs Van Cleve No sir I've been in the kitchen
杰克 你母亲在楼上吗 没 我没见过她 Jack is your mother upstairs No I haven't seen her
亲爱的 你一个人在这里干嘛 Darling What are you doing in here all alone
没什么 我只是想休息会儿 Nothing I just want to take a little rest
毕竟 今晚太热闹了 没什么事吧 After all it's been such an exciting evening Nothing wrong is there
没有 没事 你确定 No nothing Are you sure
确定 亲爱的 你感觉还好 对吧 Yes dear You're feeling all right aren't you
当然 亲爱的 我只是… 只是什么 Of course darling I'm just Just what
嗯 跟你说实话吧 我有点伤感 Well to tell you the truth I was being a little sentimental
所以我来这里待几分钟 so I came in here for a few minutes
是的 Yes
这里是一切开始的地方 This is where it all started
25年前 Twenty five years ago
我当时… I was
对 我站在那边 书桌旁 Yes I was standing over there by that desk
不 你坐在椅子上 No you were sitting in a chair
对 你说得对 Yes You're right
然后你进来了 你站在书桌旁 And then you came in and you stood by the desk
接着 你突然就向我走来… Then suddenly you started walking toward me
很慢 很慢 very slowly very slowly
我能数出每一下脚步 I could count every step
哦 你当时多么害怕 我走得越近 你就越怕 Oh you were such a frightened little girl The closer I came the more frightened you were
亲爱的 我想坦白一件事 Darling I want to make a confession
毕竟 我们结婚25年了 什么事 After all we've been married 25 years What is it
我当时完全没有害怕 I wasn't frightened at all
你没有 完全没有 You weren't Not at all
你那么慢地向我走来 知道我当时心里在想什么吗 And when you were walking toward me so very slowly do you know what was in my mind
不知道 我在想 他怎么回事 就不能走快点 No I thought What's the matter with him Can't he walk faster
后来我跑出了这个大厅 但你又回来了 And then I ran out into the hall But you came back
只是因为我要打喷嚏 Only because I had to sneeze
请原谅 夫人 有电话找你 I beg your pardon madam You are wanted on the telephone
哈罗 Hello
对 我给你打过电话 真没什么重要事 Yes I called you Well it's really not important
对 现在一切都好 Yes everything is all right now
我很快再打给你 I'll call you soon
好的 明天 All right tomorrow
那是谁 哦 没什么特别的 Who was that Oh nothing special
咱们回到客人那里去吧 亲爱的 是谁打的电话 Let's go back to our guests shall we Darling who was that on the phone
我另找时间全部告诉你 干嘛不现在说 I'll tell you all about it some other time Why not now
亲 咱们的客人会想着我们去哪儿 玛莎 那是谁 Sweatheart our guests will be wondering where we are Now Martha who was that
好吧 我告诉你 All right I'll tell you
这是另一件要坦白的 It's another confession
是我的情人 我一点不觉得好玩 My lover I don't think that's funny at all
你是嫉妒了 哦 别傻了 玛莎 Are you jealous Oh don't be silly Martha
可你为什么不能告诉你丈夫跟谁打的电话 But why can't you tell your husband whom you talk to over the telephone
况且 我本不该现在说出来的 但一直如此… Besides I wouldn't brought it up right now but just the same
过去几周里你一直下午外出… for the past several weeks you've been going out in the afternoons
而且你总是设法回避告诉我你去了哪儿 and you've always managed to avoid telling me where you were
你真的在嫉妒 You are jealous
亨利 终于啊 过了25年后 Henry at last after 25 years
谢谢你 亲爱的 玛莎 你跟谁交谈 Thank you darling Martha whom did you talk to
亲爱的 别孩子气了 哪个时髦青年会来追求我 Darling don't be a baby What dashing young cavalier would be pursuing me
很多 你依然很迷人 而且…你知道这一点 Plenty You're still very attractive and and you know it
亨利 Henry
我觉得你一定没想到这个时刻你有多么贴心 I don't think you realize how sweet you're being at this moment
没有一个丈夫在结婚25周年纪念日对妻子说这么有爱的话 No husband could have said anything lovelier to his wife on their 25th anniversary
想象一下 要是25年前 我没有打喷嚏 Imagine if 25 years ago I hadn't sneezed
我现在就不会是世上最幸福的女人了 I wouldn't be the happiest woman in the world right now
你是吗 是的 亨利 Are you Yes Henry
好了 是谁 我明天告诉你 Now who was it I'll tell you tomorrow
你不告诉我 我就不离开这房间 I am not going to leave this room until you tell me
就知道我的倔强小男孩… Well knowing my obstinate little boy
你保证要理智 不会无风起浪 You promise to be sensible and not make a mountain out of a molehill
我保证 说吧 哦 你了解女人的… I promise Now Well you know how women are
我们手上有大把的时间 就开始想象自己会有什么问题 We have too much time on our hands and we begin to imagine there are things wrong with us
我也不例外 所以我就老是去看一个医生 就这样 And I'm no exception so I've been going to a doctor that's all
亲爱的 我觉得自己像是个傻瓜 Darling I feel like a fool
现在我得跟你坦白…我真的嫉妒了 Now I have a confession I must make to you I really was jealous
玛莎 你去看医生做什么 怎么了 Martha What did you go to the doctor for What's wrong
没什么 真的 所以你才到这房间里来 Nothing really So that's why you came in this room
你感觉不太好 亲爱的 严重吗 You weren't feeling well Darling is it serious
我告诉你 根本没什么事 I tell you it's nothing at all
只是有点头晕罢了 亲爱的 Just a little dizzy spell Darling
你可答应过要理智的 来 咱们跳舞吧 Now you promised to be sensible Come on let's dance
玛莎 医生怎么说的 Martha what did the doctor say
听好 亲爱的 只要我每天三次 一次服5滴… Listen dear if I take five drops three times a day
另外 只要你不是过于担心我… and if you don't worry about me too much
咱俩都能活到庆祝金婚纪念 we'll both live to celebrate our golden anniversary
现在来吧 咱们跳舞 Now come on Let's dance
我当时并不知道… I didn't know it then
那是我们最后一个结婚纪念日 but this was our last anniversary
那是我们最后一次一起跳舞 It was the last time we danced together
玛莎只剩下几个月了 There were only a few more months left for Martha
而她让它成为我们在一起最开心的日子 and she made them the happiest of our lives together
60 对 我60岁了 Sixty Yes I was 60
杰克坚持要庆祝 Jack insisted on celebrating
我的亲戚们来到 把这个生日… And here are my relatives who came to make this birthday

明妮姨妈 承认有81岁了 Aunt Minnie who admitted to 81
这个闪耀集体的年龄总和超过1400岁 The total age of this scintillating assemblage was over 1 400 years
我相信杰克办这个派对是有目的的… I believe Jack gave this party on purpose
为了提醒我给那1400岁贡献出了60岁 to remind me that I was contributing 60 years to that 1 400

嗯 还有一件小事 Now uh there's just one little thing
就是…你父亲寄来一封信给董事会… It's uh well a letter came in from your father addressed to the board of directors and
他又想越权指挥了 Is he trying to go over my head again
哦 我确定他不是那个意思 他想要什么 Oh I'm sure he didn't mean it that way What does he want
我们住在同一栋房子里 而他却给董事会写信 We live together in the same house and then he writes letters to the board of directors
这一回老先生想提什么事 What's the old gentleman trying to put over this time
他想要董事会投票 给他一笔红利 He wants the board of directors to vote him a bonus
一笔红利 他昨天跟我谈过 秘密地 A bonus He talked to me yesterday confidentially
万一那笔红利没被通过… In case that bonus doesn't go through
他想要我说服你 至少从他的月钱里给他预支一笔 he wanted me to persuade you to give him at least an advance on his monthly check
他不应该去找你 拉斯顿小姐 He shouldn't go to you Miss Ralston
好 我要给他个教训 Well I'm gonna give him a lesson
另外 拉斯顿小姐 要是我父亲再跟你说… And Miss Ralston if my father ever talks to you again
告诉他他应该为自己羞愧 而且你也不应该替他传话 tell him he ought to be ashamed of himself and that you are in no position to deliver any messages
是 范·克里夫先生 Yes Mr Van Cleve
哎哟 范·克里夫先生 Why Mr Van Cleve
他情绪不好吗 糟透了 Is he in a bad mood Terrible
听着 拉斯顿小姐 你能不能帮我个大忙呢 Now look here Miss Ralston would you do me a very great favor
父亲 Father
早上好 杰克 早上好 Good morning Jack Good morning
我想跟你谈谈 I'd like to talk to you
父亲 Father
我听到一个很好笑的故事 你会喜欢的 I heard a very funny story You'll love it
它会让你笑上一整天 It'll start your day off with a laugh
你应该为自己感到羞愧 You ought to be ashamed of yourself
不按时回家 残害自己的身体 coming home at all hours making a wreck of yourself
你觉得你还能继续这样多长时间 How much longer do you think you can keep this up
拜托 杰克 别责备我 总有一天你会垮掉的 Please Jack don't scold me Someday you're gonna collapse
我看起来那么糟吗 你看上去像是鬼魂 Do I look that bad You look like a ghost
我知道你说得对 杰克 I know you're right Jack
我知道我应该改变生活方式 I know I should change my way of living
可是 我的孩子 你换我的角度想想 But my boy put yourself in my position
我很孤独 而你总是到处忙生意 I'm lonesome You're always away somewhere on business
一晚又一晚独自待在这大房子里 你不知道是什么滋味 Being alone in this big house night after night you don't know what it's like
你也不知道 因为你从来不在家 Neither do you because you're never at home
但我能想象是什么滋味 杰克 会很可怕 But I can imagine what it's like and Jack it's horrible
我的孩子 我想跟你谈谈 Now my boy I want to talk to you
我没在骗自己 我不会越来越年轻 I'm not fooling myself I'm not getting any younger
我觉得改变我的生活方式的时候到来了 I think the time has come for me to change my way of living
你知道 杰克 当一个男人…到了60岁的时候 You know Jack when a man gets to be gets to be 60
血液不再快速流动 the blood doesn't flow as fast anymore
从一股奔腾的山涧 变成一条安静的小溪 Instead of a wild mountain stream it becomes a quiet little brook
那天 我一个人坐在这里 The other day when I was sitting here all alone
你知道我感觉想做什么吗 you know what I felt like doing
什么 我感觉到我想… What I felt like I wanted to sit
坐在一张又好又舒服的椅子上… in a nice comfortable chair
一直读啊读啊读书 and read and read and read
那你干嘛不去读呢 Well why didn't you
图书室里全是书 而我肯定你一本都没读过 You know the library is full of books and I'm sure you haven't read one of them
杰克 这双眼睛都再也受不了啦 Jack the eyes can't take it anymore
那你怎么不去看眼科医生 Why don't you go to an oculist
哦 对 Uh yes
这样也许有用 that might do
对 也许有用 Yes that might do
但是… But uh
另一方面 on the other hand
你觉得找一个人来陪读怎么样 what do you think of the idea of having well some kind of reader
你知道 就是找个声音宜人 言辞不错的 You know someone with a pleasant voice nice diction
我知道你要什么 I know just what you want
你是说从耶鲁或哈佛找个温和安静的小伙子 You mean one of those nice quiet fellows from Yale or Harvard
噢 这很容易办到啊 Oh they're easy to get
好了 她是谁 杰克 你太多疑了 Now who is she Jack you have the most suspicious mind
说吧 她多大了 Come on How old is she
她是个不同一般的年轻女人 Well uh she's an unusually adult young woman
我是在老威尔逊·威斯比家里见到她的 她是他的陪读 I met her at old Wilson Weatherby's She was his reader
嗯 这事儿听起来有些可疑 Hmm The whole thing sounds a little fishy to me
杰克 你干嘛要剥夺你老父亲一点点文化上的乐趣呢 Now Jack why do you want to deprive your old father of a little cultural pleasure
我想不出有什么更高雅更舒适的事… I can think of nothing more dignified and homelike
能超过坐在壁炉前让人给我读一本好书了 than sitting in front of a fireplace and having someone read a fine book to me
一件值得做的事 Something worthwhile
一件… Something
《如何让你的丈夫幸福》
父亲 她最后的想法是你应该幸福 Father her last thought was that you should be happy
我答应过她我会做到 I promised her I'd see to it
所以 要是你想要这位年轻女士为你读书 So if you want this young lady to read to you
那就去做吧 我祝福你 go ahead with my blessing
不 我不能这么做 No I couldn't do it
当一个人到了60岁 他的人生… When a man gets to be 60 his life
并未结束 父亲 Isn't over Father
没有必要结束 Doesn't have to be over
要是一个男人孤单而且觉得他需要… If a man is lonely and he feels that he needs well
你是说 女性的接触 You mean the feminine touch
那是自然的 That's natural
但我认为他应该找一个接近自己年龄的 But I think he should find someone closer to his own age
也许 Maybe
而不是一个女孩 年龄… Not a girl of uh
24岁 Twenty four
哦 那是有点不成比例 Well that is a little out of proportion
恐怕是的 I'm afraid so
但如果 另一方面 他应该见一个有教养的女人 But if on the other hand he should meet a cultured woman of
正确 一个真正体面的人 Right Someone with real dignity
一个大约50或51岁的女人 A woman of about 50 or 51
或者52到53岁 甚至55岁 Or 52 or 53 or even 55
那更像回事 That's more like it
杰克 我的未来看上去相当沉闷 Jack my future looks pretty depressing
范·克里夫先生 有电话找你 先生 Mr Van Cleve you're wanted on the telephone sir
哈罗 Hello

哦 等一下 Oh uh just a moment
是找你的 “小乖” It's for you "poochie "

这是70岁的我 This is me at 70
真的没什么可担心的 范·克里夫太太 请… Now really there's nothing to worry about But Mrs Van Cleve please
我知道 但昨天是他70岁生日 I know but it was his 70th birthday yesterday
而我无心阻止他稍微庆祝一下 and I didn't have the heart to keep him from celebrating a little
我讨厌去参加那个宴会 把老爷子一个人留下 I hate to go to that banquet and leave the old man alone
我还是宁愿待在家里 不 你们完全可以放心去 I'd just as soon stay home No it's perfectly all right for you to go
实际上 越少人围着他 他会好得越快 In fact the fewer people around him the better off he'll be
范·克里夫先生 抱歉吵醒你 不过必须这是必须要做的 Now Mr Van Cleve I'm sorry to wake you up but it has to be done
噢 要是我可以… Oh if I could just

他说：“亨利… He said "Henry
“我来带你上路啦 去了你就再也不回来啦” I've come to take you on a trip from which you'll never come back "
请你别太激动了 Now please don't get excited
然后我说 “好伙计… And I said "My good fellow
“如果我要进行这样的旅行 得坐豪华游艇” "if I ever take a trip like that it'll be in a deluxe cabin
“而不是坐这条微不足道的小船 连栏杆都没有” and not in a dinky little rowboat that doesn't even have a bar "
所以我把他扔出去了 还有船什么的 So I threw him out rowboat and all
很好 很好 Good Good
你想不到他怎么做的吧 And what do you think he did
他回来了 坐着一艘大豪华游轮… He came back with a big luxury liner
漂浮在满是威士忌和苏打水的海面上 floating on an ocean of whiskey and soda
没有烟囱… And instead of funnels
都是些大大的黑雪茄 there were big black cigars
在栏杆最顶上 坐在救生艇里的 And on top of the bar sitting in a lifeboat
是最漂亮的金发女郎 was the most beautiful blonde
穿着一件“快乐寡妇”胸衣 wearing a Merry Widow costume
她潜入威士忌 游到我的床边 She dived into the whiskey and swam right over to my bedside
“亨利” 她说道 "Henry " she said
“来跳个舞怎么样 ” "how about a little dance "
船上那个男人从衣袋里拿出手风琴 And the man from the boat took an accordion out of his pocket
然后他弹起… and he played
“快乐寡妇华尔兹” "The Merry Widow Waltz "
那女孩对我伸出手臂 The girl held her arms out to me
然后她开始跳舞 and she started to dance
哎呀 Well
他奏乐 她跳舞 with him playing and her dancing
而我脖子以上都泡在威士忌里 and me up to my neck in whiskey anyhow
我用双臂环抱那个美丽的女孩 well I put my arms around that beautiful girl
正要和她一起跳舞… and was just about to dance with her
这时 偏偏你插进来了 when of all people you cut in
你 没错 就是你 You Yes you
张开嘴巴就好 走开 拿走你的体温计 Just open your mouth Go away and take that thermometer with you
夜班护士刚到 好的 The night nurse has just arrived All right
晚上好 你好 Good evening Hello
右手第一扇门 谢谢 First door to the right Thank you
我已经睡着了… I'd fallen asleep
突然有人亲切地抚摸我的额头把我吵醒了 and suddenly I was awakened by a caressing touch on my forehead
我睁开双眼她就在那里 就坐在床边 I opened my eyes and there she was sitting right on the edge of the bed
内莉·布朗 注册护士 Nellie Brown Registered Nurse
阁下… Your Excellency
看她一眼 她是否注册护士就不重要了 one look at her and it didn't matter whether she was registered or not
然后她拿出一支体温计 Then she took out a thermometer
她说“张开嘴” and she said "Open your mouth "
为了内莉谁又会不照办呢 Who wouldn't for Nellie
然后她把体温计放进来 And then she put the thermometer in
我的体温升到43摄氏度 and my temperature went up to 110
谁能要求比这更美妙地死亡呢 Who could ask for a more beautiful death

门卫也许都不会让我进 The doorman might not even let me in
这个 你永远说不准的 值得一试 Well you never can tell It's worth trying
有时候他们的附楼有一间小房间空着 Sometimes they have a small room vacant in the annex
并不完全向阳 Not exactly on the sunny side
也不是那么舒适 and not so very comfortable
床也许是硬的 而且你… The bed may be hard and you
也许得等个几百年 等到他们把你挪到主楼去 might have to wait a few hundred years until they move you into the main building
不过 试一试总没坏处 Well it doesn't hurt to try
毕竟 他们也许会在主楼的居民中打听你的事情 After all they may inquire about you among the residents in the main building
我认为你会发现有很多人愿意给你好推荐信 I think you'll find a lot of people who will give you a good reference
那总是有帮助的 and that always helps

几位年轻女士 several young ladies
她们怎样了 哦 她们中可能有几个会在那里 What about them Well some of them might be there
