小王子说有一天我看了四十四次日落
文/薄三薄
她其实是不愿意让小王子看到自己哭泣。
5、The wheat fields have nothing to say to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the color of gold. Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat.
麦田和我没有任何关联,真令人沮丧。不过,你有金黄色的头发。想想看,如果你驯服了我,那该有多好啊!小麦也是金黄色的,那会使我想起你。我会喜欢听麦田里的风声……
6、To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world.
对我而言,你只是一个小男孩,和其他成千上万的小男孩没有什么不同。我不需要你。你也不需要我。对你而言,我也和其它成千上万的狐狸并没有差别。但是,假如你驯服了我,我们就彼此需要了。对我而言,你就是举世无双的;对你而言,我也是独一无二的……

8、It has done me good, because of the color of the wheat fields. Go and look again at the roses. You will understand now that yours is unique in all the world.
驯服对我是有好处的——因为麦田的颜色。再回头看那些玫瑰花吧!到时你就明白你的玫瑰花仍是举世无双的一朵花。
9、You are beautiful, but you are empty. One could not die for you. To be sure, an ordinary passer-by would think that my rose looked just like you – the rose that belongs to me. But in herself alone she is more important than all the hundreds of you other roses: because it is she that I have watered; because it is she that I have put under the glass globe; because it is she that I have sheltered behind the screen; because it is she that I have killed the caterpillars (except the two or three that we saved to become butterflies); because it is she that I have listened to, when she grumbled, or boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing. Because she is my rose.
你们虽然很美丽,但是却很空虚。没有人愿意为你们而死。或许,一般的路人,会认为我的玫瑰花——那一朵属于我的玫瑰花和你们是一样的。但她这一朵却比你们千万朵还要重要:因为我曾经亲自为她浇水;把她放置在玻璃罩下;把她置于屏风后面保护它;为她铲除一些毛毛虫(只留两三只蜕变成蝴蝶);我倾听她的抱怨、自吹自擂甚至信口开河,哪怕她默默无语——只因为她是我的玫瑰花。
10、And now here is my secret, a very simple secret. It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eyes.
这是我的一个秘密,再简单不过的秘密:一个人只有用心去看,才能看到真实。事情的真相只用眼睛是看不见的。
11、It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.
你在你的玫瑰花身上耗费的时间使得你的玫瑰花变得如此重要。
12、Men have forgotten this truth. But you must not forget it. You become responsible,forever, for what you have tamed. You are responsible for your rose…
人们早已忘记了这个道理。可是你不应将它遗忘。你必须永远对自己所驯服的东西负责。你要对你的玫瑰花负责。
13、The stars are beautiful, because of a flower that cannot be seen.
星星真美,因为有一朵看不见的花。
17、My star will be just one of the stars, for you. And so you will love to watch all the stars in the heavens... They will be your friends.
我的星星对你而言,只不过是众星中的一颗。你会喜欢仰望天际所有的繁星……它们都会是你的朋友。
你知道……路途太遥远了。我的身躯太沉重了,带不走它。但它只不过是一具被丢弃了的旧躯壳。不必为一具旧躯壳感到伤心难过。
21、And no grown-ups will ever understand that this is a matter of so much importance!
但是,大人们永远也不会了解这件事有多么重要!
22、It doesn't matterthat you are not here in person as long as you are here in my heart.
就算你不在这里也没关系,因为你在我心里。
23、His flower had told him that she was only one of her kind in all universe. And here were five thousand of them, all alike, in one single garden!
他的花朵曾经告诉他,自己是宇宙间仅有的一种花;可是仅仅在这座花园里,就有五千朵和她一模一样的花!
24、In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night… You – only you – will have stars that can laugh…
我就在繁星中的一颗上生活。我会站在其中的一颗星星上微笑。
当你在夜间仰望天际时,就仿佛每一颗星星都在笑……你——只有你——才能拥有会笑的星星……
25、Love does not mean to look at each other, but to look the same direction。
爱情不是终日彼此对视,爱情是共同了望远方、相伴而行。
