The Little Prince(excerpt)
So I lived my life alone, without anyone that I could really talk to, until I had an accident with my plane in the Desert of Sahara, six years ago. Something was broken in my engine. And as I had with me neither a mechanic nor any passengers, I set myself to attempt the difficult repairs all alone. It was a question of life or death for me: I had scarcely enough drinking water to last a week.
The first night, then, I went to sleep on the sand, a thousand miles from any human habitation. I was more isolated than a shipwrecked sailor on a raft in the middle of the ocean. Thus you can imagine my amazement, at sunrise, when I was awakened by an odd little voice. It said:
“If you please—draw me a sheep! ”
“What! ”
“Draw me a sheep! ”
I jumped to my feet, completely thunderstruck. I blinked my eyes hard. I looked carefully all around me. And I saw a most extraordinary small person, who stood there examining me with great seriousness. Here you may see the best portrait that, later, I was able to make of him. But my drawing is certainly very much less charming than its model.
That, however, is not my fault. The grown-ups discouraged me in my painter’s career when I was six years old, and I never learned to draw anything, except boas from the outside and boas from the inside.
Now I stared at this sudden apparition with my eyes fairly starting out of my head in astonishment. Remember, I had crashed in the desert a thousand miles from any inhabited region. And yet my little man seemed neither to be straying uncertainly among the sands, nor to be fainting from fatigue or hunger or thirst or fear. Nothing about him gave any suggestion of a child lost in the middle of the desert, a thousand miles from any human habitation. When at last I was able to speak, I said to him:
“But—what are you doing here ”
And in answer he repeated, very slowly, as if he were speaking of a matter of great consequence: “If you please—draw me a sheep. . . ”
When a mystery is too overpowering, one dare not disobey. Absurd as it might seem to me, a thousand miles from any human habitation and in danger of death, I took out of my pocket a sheet of paper and my fountain-pen. But then I remembered how my studies had been concentrated on geography, history, arithmetic, and grammar, and I told the little chap (a little crossly, too) that I did not know how to draw. He answered me:
“That doesn’t matter. Draw me a sheep. . . ”
But I had never drawn a sheep. So I drew for him one of the two pictures I had drawn so often. It was that of the boa constrictor from the outside. And I was astounded to hear the little fellow greet it with.
“No, no, no! I do not want an elephant inside a boa constrictor. A boa constrictor is a very dangerous creature, and an elephant is very cumbersome. Where I live, everything is very small. What I need is a sheep. Draw me a sheep. ”
So then I made a drawing.
He looked at it carefully, then he said:
“No. This sheep is already very sickly. Make me another. ”
So I made another drawing.

译文:
《小王子》(节选)
我就这样孤独地生活着, 没有一个能真正谈得来的人, 一直到六年前, 当我的飞机在撒哈拉沙漠里出现了故障。发动机里有个零件损坏了。由于我既没有带机械师也没有带旅客, 我就只好试图独自完成这项困难的维修工作。这对我来说是个生与死的问题: 我随身带的水不足以维持一星期。
于是, 第一天晚上我就睡在这片远离人间烟火的大沙漠上。我比大海中伏在小木排上的遇难水手还要孤独。而在第二天拂晓, 当一个奇怪的小声音叫醒我的时候, 你们可以想象我当时是多么吃惊。这小小的声音说道:
“请你——给我画一只绵羊, 好吗 ”
“什么! ”
“给我画一只绵羊! ”
我像是受到惊雷轰击一般, 一下子就站立起来。我使劲地眨了眨眼睛, 仔细地向四周看了看。我看见一个十分奇怪的小家伙, 他正站在那里, 极其严肃地朝我凝眸望着。这是后来我给他画出来的最好的一幅画像。可是, 我的画当然要比他本人的模样逊色得多。
然而, 那不是我的过错。六岁时, 大人们使我对我的画家生涯失去了勇气, 除了从内里和从外观画的蟒蛇, 后来再没有学过画其他任何东西。
我惊奇地睁大眼睛看着这突然出现的小家伙。你们不要忘记, 我当时处在远离人烟千里之外的地方。而这个小家伙给我的印象是, 他既不像在沙漠中迷了路的样子, 也没有半点疲乏、饥渴、惧怕而虚弱无力的神情。他丝毫不像是一个迷失在荒无人烟的沙漠中的孩子。当我最终能说出话来的时候, 我对他说道:
“可是——你在这儿干什么呢 ”
他非常缓慢地回应, 仿佛在谈论一件重要的事一般, 对我重复地说道: “请你——给我画一只绵羊……”
当一种神秘的东西把你震慑住的时候, 你是不敢不听从它的支配的, 在这荒无人烟的沙漠上、面临死亡的危险的情况下, 尽管这样的举动使我感到十分荒诞, 我还是从口袋里掏出了一张纸和一支钢笔。这时我却又记起, 我只学过地理、历史、算术和语法, 就有点不大高兴地对小家伙说我不会画画。他回答我说:
“没有关系, 给我画一只绵羊……”
但是我从来没有画过绵羊, 我就从过去我经常画的两幅画中选了一张给他画了, 也就是那幅从外观画的巨蟒。
“不, 不, 不! 我不要蟒蛇, 它肚子里还有一头象。巨蟒这东西太危险, 大象又太笨重。我住的地方, 所有的东西都非常小。我需要一只绵羊。给我画一只绵羊吧。”
于是我画了一幅。
他专心地看着, 随后又说:
“我不要, 这只羊已经病得很重了。给我重新画一只。”
于是我又画了一幅。

Invisible Wings
Here I am I’m always trying ①to be strong
When I’m hurt I won’t shed a tear
I’d rather sing a song
I will sing of a pair of invisible wings
That will take all my fears away
I won’t think about what others have that I don’t
Coz’ I see that I desire to make this path ②my own
I’ll put on a pair of invisible wings
And it will take me to higher heights
I’ll take flight and there I see ③my dreams
They lay ahead
(And) No longer will I be afraid
Close my eyes
And I can feel the winds beneath my wings
It is the voice that will carry me through
I have hope that I will find myself, in ④a better place
You and I will take this journey walking hand in hand
And I know I have a pair of invisible wings
To guide me through this race
All my hopes and dreams shall be everlasting
As I take flight on invisible wings
【歌曲译文】
隐形的翅膀
我一直努力让自己坚强
当我受伤时我也绝不流泪
我用歌声代替泪水
唱出隐形的翅膀
带走我所有的惧怕
我不去羡慕别人有什么
因为我要创造自己的价值
我会戴上一双隐形的翅膀
它会带我飞得更高
我将要飞翔, 飞向我的梦想
它们就在前方
我不会再害怕
闭上双眼
我可以感觉到风在我的翅膀之下
有个声音会陪伴我渡过难关
我希望我可以找到自己, 在一个更美好的地方
你我将携手同行
我知道我有一双隐形的翅膀
引领我坚持到最后
我的希望和梦想会永不磨灭
我将和隐形的翅膀一起飞翔
