My Fragile Treasure (Excerpt)
易碎的珍寶（節(jié)選）
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
安東尼.德.圣埃克蘇佩里
As the little prince dropped off to sleep, I took him in my arms and set out walking once more. I felt deeply moved, and stirred. It seemed to me that I was carrying a very fragile treasure. It seemed to me, even, that there was nothing more fragile on all Earth. In the moonlight I looked at his pale forehead, his closed eyes, his locks of hair that trembled in the wind, and I said to myself: " what I see here is nothing but a shell. What is more important is invisible...."
小王子睡著了，我將他抱在懷中，又重新上路。我被深深打動了，心潮澎湃。我覺得，自己似乎抱著一件易碎的珍寶，甚至覺得地球上再沒有比這更脆弱的東西了。我借著月光看著他蒼白的面額，緊閉的雙眼和那隨風飄動的綹綹[liǔ]頭發(fā)，自言自語道：“在這兒我所見到的僅僅是外表。最重要的是看不見的……”
As his lips opened slightly with the suspicious of a half-smile, I said to myself, again, " what movesme so deeply, about this little prince who is sleeping here, is his loyalty to a flower--the image of rose that shines through his whole being like the flame of a lamp. Even when he is asleep...” And I felt him to be more fragile still.I felt the need of protecting him, as if he himself were a flame that might be extinguished by a little puff of wind….
當我看到他雙唇微啟，是笑非笑的模樣時，我又對自己說：“在這個熟睡于此的小王子身上，令我感動至深的，是他對一朵花的忠誠，那朵玫瑰花，即使是他再他睡著之時，也會如燈的火焰一樣照亮著他的整個生命……”這時，我就感覺他更加脆弱了。我感到他需要保護，也就如同燈焰一般，一縷輕風都可能將它吹滅……
